California Girl (Chillicothe Dream)

CALIFORNIA GIRL (CHILLICOTHE DREAM)




They said I wouldn’t make it
Like they thought I wouldn’t go
It’s there for the taking
You have to reach for it to hold
In the palm of my hand I can feel the heartbeat of life

There’s always a tomorrow
If you’re breathing, you aint dead
There’s so many things swirling in my head
You have to see it to believe it
Nothing goes wrong when you do it right

And I lay down in the road of my thoughts
The sun beating down
Too wild to be caught
But it was there in her eyes the moment hers meant mine
Then I find

Chillicothe dreams of California girls
Redneck whiskey and traveling the world
It’s Saturday night and I’m footloose and fancy free
One step closer and two feet away
Talking to the moon with nothing much to say
There’s no place I’d rather be than with this California girl
And living this Chillicothe dream

Under the stars and on the sand
The conversation flew
The touch of her hand was electric and I knew
Time was standing still
While the ocean was crashing the beach

Lips connecting with a prejudicial tongue
Arms wrapped up inside of the fun
Forgetting a meaning and rolling with the flow
We sank even further
Nothing was ever out of reach

And I played out loud in the hopes of all my cares
The earth spinning round
Too nervous to be scared
But it was there in her sighs the minute I tried to hide
I can’t deny

Chillicothe dreams of California girls
Redneck whiskey and traveling the world
It’s Saturday night and I’m footloose and fancy free
One step closer and two feet away
Talking to the moon with nothing much to say
There’s no place I’d rather be than with this California girl
And living this Chillicothe dream

And I lay down in the road of my thoughts
The sun beating down
Too wild to be caught
But it was there in her eyes the moment hers meant mine
You know I’m not blind

Chillicothe dreams of California girls
Redneck whiskey and traveling the world
It’s Saturday night and I’m footloose and fancy free
One step closer and two feet away
Talking to the moon with nothing much to say
There’s no place I’d rather be than with this California girl
And living this Chillicothe dream

I’m with a California girl and living a Chillicothe dream

Money Is The Maker

Money Is The Maker - Written by Carroll Bryant 



Money is the maker and I am the taker

Money is the maker and I am the taker


You can have your planet because I don’t want it

You can take your government and you know where you can shove it

All of the misery that all of you bring to me

You make life so sickening because all of you are saying

That money is the maker and I am the taker

Money is the maker and I am the taker


Can’t you see what you are doing to me?

I can’t believe all the insecurity


You can buy your treason and make up your reason

You’re making it so blatant in how you make decisions

From here to eternity – trying just to buy a dream

Happiness comes for free while all of you are paying

Money is the maker and I am the taker

Money is the maker and I am the taker


Can’t you see what we really need?

I can’t believe all of the hypocrisy




So, if you want it – go ahead you can have it

Better heed the warning come one final morning

Can’t you see what it’s doing to me?

I can’t believe all the insecurity

Money is the maker and I am the taker

Money is the maker and I am the taker

Money is the maker and I am the taker

Money is the maker and I am the taker

Money is the maker and I am the taker

Cloud Nine

CLOUD NINE - Written by Carroll Bryant
 
 
Looking out the window - I see the face of time
Lurking in the shadows - About to lose my mind
Anywhere the wind blows - My love is there to find
Suddenly the heart knows - The soul is merely blind
 
And on this escapade
This world that I have made
I can still feel the power of everything - you say
And in my lone escape
These chains that I did break
I can still count the hours as the hours fade away
 
They always fade away
 
Dwelling in this anger - I paint the face of fear
Running from your danger - Only to get to here
In the web of a spider - I'm trapped to clearly die
Never getting higher - Than the fateless sky
 
And on this escapade
A time bomb I have made
I can still feel the power of everything - you hate
And in my lone escape
The rules that I did break
I can still count the hours as the hours procreate
 
They always procreate
 
And on this escapade
A fantasy I've made
I can still feel the power as my heart ejaculates
And in my lone escape
The touch I can't embrace
I can still count the hours as my thoughts evaporate
 
And my thoughts evaporate
And my hopes evaporate
 
Oh, dreams are forever
They'll never let us die
Oh, dreams are forever
They'll never run out of time
Oh, dreams are forever
They live in a fateless sky
Oh, dreams are forever
They live where they watch you cry
 
Oh, dreams are forever
