Have You Ever Seen The Rain
Length: 2:40
Release: 2018
Opening Lyrics:
Someone told me long ago
There’s a calm before the storm
I know, it’s been coming for some time
When it’s over, so they say
It’ll rain a sunny day
I know, shining down like water
I wanna know, have you ever seen the rain?
I wanna know, have you ever seen the rain?
Coming down on a sunny day
Yesterday, and days before
Sun is cold and rain is hard
I know, been that way for all my time
‘Til forever, on it goes
Fortunate Son
Length: 2:20
Release: 2018
Opening Lyrics:
Ooh, they’re red, white and blue
And when the band plays “Hail to the Chief”
Ooh, they point the cannon at you, Lord
I ain’t no senator’s son, son
It ain’t me, it ain’t me
I ain’t no fortunate one, no
Lord, don’t they help themselves, Lord?
But when the taxman come to the door
Lord, the house lookin’ like a rummage sale, yeah
Bad Moon Rising
Length: 2:21
Release: 2018
Opening Lyrics:
I see trouble on the way
I see earthquakes and lightnin’
I see bad times today
Well it’s bound to take your life
There’s a bad moon on the rise
I know the end is comin’ soon
I fear rivers over flowin’
I hear the voice of rage and ruin
Down On The Corner
Length: 2:46
Release: 2018
Opening Lyrics:
Over by the courthouse they’re starting to unwind
Four kids on the corner trying to bring you up
Willy picks a tune out and he blows it on the harp
Out in the street
Willy and the Poor Boys are playin’
Bring a nickel, tap your feet
Blinky thumps the gut bass and solos for a while
Poor Boy twangs the rhythm out on his kalamazoo
And Willy goes into a dance and doubles on kazoo
Proud Mary
Length: 3:07
Release: 2015
Opening Lyrics:
I think you might like to hear something from us
Nice and easy
But there’s just one thing
You see we never ever do nothing
Nice, easy
We always do it nice and rough
So we’re gonna take the beginning of this song
And do it easy
But then we’re gonna do the finish rough
This is the way we do “Proud Mary”
