I have a collection of good songs (mostly country) that I’ve decided to (for the 1st time) collaborate. They not only need a GOOD Vocalist, but also guitar and/or other instruments available. My initial goal is to produce a demo or demos that can be submitted to music publishers. Each was written to my original music that I can (poorly) sing the songs to and has never been  scored onto paper.

As a published poet & novelist, I’ve used a dozen of my best songs in a mystery/thriller that I plan to make available as an audio book as well. My voice is good for that reading project but not the songs. The leading good guy character is a long-haul, song writing, 12-string guitar playing truck driver, that is a part time  performer at a …

Chapter One I was ready to start the fourth grade, the year we moved to Izee. Prior to that time, the Miles family had lived in Bates, Oregon. Bates was a company owned, sawmill town, too. The biggest difference was that the houses in Bates were painted, on the outside. My sister, Rita, had married her high school sweetheart, in June, and had moved to Eugene, Oregon. We would not be able to see her more than a couple of time a year – as it was ninety miles to the paved highway, and then over ...

Truck Drivers and Salesman *********************** chorus: Truck drivers and salesmen are men of the road; One ‘Loads his holler’, While one ‘Hauls his load’... Before you fall for one It’s best that you knew: Truck drivers and salesmen Are just ‘Passing through’... It’s true that they do seem different, sometimes, The way they may dress, And, oh yes, different ‘Lines’... But, they share the ‘Feel’ of the ‘Flight of the free’, And, their’s is the ‘World’ That awaits them to ‘See’... Sometimes...

YOUR NAME ********* I'll remember the way that I met you, How easy the right words just came; You can bet I won't forget you... But, I won't remember your name... It's funny how, sometimes, a stranger Comprehends as ones friends never could; You say what you feel without danger If your motives are misunderstood... I'll remember what it was to love you, You sharing yourself without shame; I'll remember the view from above you... But, I won't remember your name... It's too bad the one you belon...

If, late at night, I cross the floor, I don’t trip over shoes no more; My razor’s right where it was left The last time that I shaved... No stockings hanging on the shower, Now I don’t have to ‘Wait an hour’ Or solve the mystery of the theft Of something that I saved... Hey, I can say, ‘It’s great to live alone’... When I want to, I stay out late ‘cause there’s no one at home... No dinner, cold, waitin’ for me, No woman mad as she can be; So lucky me, At last I’m free To live life ‘Single st...
