American Blues: The new song born in the BuckarooM by Hank Ray and Dr BLT

 Hank Ray wrote these lyrics last night and sent them to me.  I put music to them, and the song has been added to the Buck's Red, White and Blue special edition CD to be released tomorrow at Starbucks.

Please learn it.  We'll need to follow along with you at the Starbucks patio performance, because we're just learning it ourselves.   

I took the photo a few weeks back at a stop just off the 99.  I call it America Off the Hook.  

American Blues

lyrics by Hank Ray

music by Dr BLT 

copyright 2008 Nu Bako Sound Recordings/Krocker Records

From 1776 and some time before

America sometimes had to go a war

born out of a wild wilderness frontier

she got stronger and larger  by every new year

America has sure paid her dues

-even America gets down from with blues

 

 

the civil war came to test what’s' wrong and what’s 'right

America blood ran red for black and for white

Native Americans stood alone with their pride

the gold rush came and pushed them aside.

 

-America has sure paid her dues

-even America gets down from with blues

 

 

evils came with the Japanese sword

American came back armed by the lord

911 an was an attack on her soil

a split America - some are still loyal

 

-America has sure paid her dues

-even America gets down from with blues
