Prospector (Mach & Kenny Mac)

[Mach]

Here's a little number I recorded and needed some lyrics. Kenny came up with the lyrics and sang it. You did a fab job on this Kenny, thanks so much for a very fine addition.

Its about a Gold Prospector in California during the 1800's.

Prospector

I ride my horse just past the waterfall

to the bend between some rocks

I look for black sand in the sediment.

(chorus)

I am just another cowboy

and my heart it has been sold

to the state of California

Trying to turn the dirt here into gold.


I didn't realize the real gold was at home.

she had sweet blue eyes and loved me so

now I'm lost here out on my own.

(chorus)

I am just another cowboy

and my heart it has been sold

to the state of California

Trying to turn the dirt here into gold.


As I gaze into the rivers flow

All I see is her reflection

I sold my soul for a stupid dream


(chorus)

I am just another cowboy

and my heart it has been sold

to the state of California

Trying to turn the dirt here into gold.

Hmmm, this seems rather strange. The volume on the uploaded file seems to be almost 50% lower than the one on my laptop. Never had that happen before. Puzzled...

[Redler]

Just fantastic song/lyrics and composition! Everything is in balance in the backer. Sounds so good.

Kenny did perfect job on vocals - as always!

Enjoyable listening gents!

Wow that's a really cool song and it sounds amazing and I'm listening through my phone speaker in the bathroom. I hear the bass and each instrument...what a production job Mach, that's a stellar track!
Kenny...damn brother you nailed that lyric and vocal. I couldn't sit still...brilliant collaboration my brothers.

What a fine collab! Good theme and well done lyrics expertly sung. Loved the minimalist touch and the hint of a Neil Young vibe. Instrumentally solid and an all around great listen. Nice work gents!!

Thanks guys, I would really like to thank Mach for sending me an excellent track.
I love the production on his backer.
His playing on it was excellent too and easy for me to work with.
Also a pleasure to work with someone from sunny Florida(same age as me as well )
And always a pleasure to be involved in another collaboration.
