Three Uncle Sams



Three Uncle Sams, originally uploaded by everyday j.

Here are the Three Uncle Sams, my newest colaboration with Doug and Gray. We’ll be playing at Red’s Scoot Inn on Sunday Feb 26th.

Here’s a beat the Gray laid down in Reason with a chorus he suggested and a rhyme I came up with:

Lost In Space
[audio:2006/2/Lost In Space.mp3]

Lost in thought, i’m lost in my dreams
lost in the sauce, lost in the weeds
lost in another saturday night
lost in myself, lost in my life

i heard from an old friend from way back when today
i was a big brother for a summer down in richmond va
she was a strange little sweetie that liked me a lot
she was 16 i was 20 and all pent up

made so nervous i didn’t know what to do
i was gentleman then i didn’t know how to use
to screw, to hit the shit and blow on through
so i treater her right and her father approved

so i get an email today from a girl called frog
and what do yo know that girl is all grown up
she’s in chicago, strikin’ a pose, makin’ her own clothes
learnin’ the ropes in a shop she lives above she opened up

me i’m in austin with a girl and a place
singin my song secure in my space
until an email come through from this fine young thing
and i’m lost in my space fingering my ring

i’m 1000 miles off the surface of the earth
thinkin’ bout my choices and what they’re worth
nothin’ to hold on to just slowly spinnin’
feelin’ the warmth of the light when i’m in it
