Wake Up! {You have a Mountain to climb}


 Inspired By You so it must be true, Harsh early days can shape our ways.


Being used and abused can leave us confused. In the darkest of nights we can still see lights.

One more memory from the cupboard of fear. we laugh it off and wipe away a tear.

Comedy is king. It erases that thing and a smile last long into the night.Wake up! You have a Mountain to climb,Sleep is priceless Our favorite time, Wake up! You have a Mountain to climb.

You got your Hair pulled while bawled at for sure. Walking on tip toes before closing that door. 

Sit down shut up stand up face the wall. Wait for your destiny Yeah your curtain call.

Its cool to be a clown and I need to laugh since Mother tried drowning Me in a cold bath. 

We got this far without crying to sleep, A bed time story or little Bo-Peep.

Running away could be the answer, Drink yourself silly with a Ballet Dancer

Create your own Hero while looking real cool. Bang your own drum while acting the fool

I prefer Dogs to people as well. They love me and hug me I guess you can tell. 

Not every song will capture or rhyme Wake up! you have a Mountain to climb

It takes a while to realize Your special too in every ones eyes.

So believe in  all your inner most desires. Making us laugh keep stoking those fires.

We are gonna miss you now your not around. Take care of Buster while painting the town.

I hope we meet on the other side but until then I'll stay on this ride.

Up then down, Fast then slow veering left and on with the show.

We Will remember the Days when you would be Queen, The Funniest Drag that I ever seen.

Oh Lilly so savage a Bombsite for sure/ Your POG cast a hoot, cant wait for the tour.

We know your out there somewhere A curse in the evening air

I cant stop laughing or crying I swear.

We all miss you while standing in line to shake the hand of Mr Canine

Whistle your favorite tune while the Cow jumps over the Moon

No one knows why or reason You went? Remain in our hearts in the garden of Kent 

Just remain in our Hearts in The Garden of Kent. 

Time is a Healer so waste no more time, Wake up You have a Mountain to climb

Yeah wake up You have a Mountain to climb.

Can you hear that shouting something about a Mountain

Can you hear that shouting something about a Mountain

Does it Matter

60s classic ballad c major jam.

Dressing down in My Sunday Best

Facing South But Heading out West


Been Caught Offside Swam against the tide, Really didn't matter being taken for a ride


Acting the fool on Saturday Night


Trying on black then deciding on white. 


Staying indoors Going out for a bite. Sailing against the wind Flying a kite


Did it matter Did it Shatter Did the Glass Break


What the Hell for Heavens Sake Yeah What the Hell for Heavens Sake.




Hanging around Didn't hesitate Got home early after going out late 



Wasted My time on a life of crime Lost a few pound but then found a Dime


Decisions Decisions Don't have a clue Front Runner Baby Back o the Queue



 Going in while their Chucking Out, Decisions Decisions Swings and Roundabouts


Did it Matter Did it Shatter Did the Glass Break


What the Hell for Heavens Sake Yeah What the Hell for Heavens Sake


Running on empty far too long

A line just taken from a favorite song

One day flush then needing a loan

Tyrone shoelaces and Basketball Jones

Cant think for the life of me, Too noisy in here. Stuck in neutral while in top gear.

Did it matter, Did it shatter? Did the glass break, What the Hell for heavens sake 

I started out on a one way track. No destination and no going back

Once I was History but soon I'll be dead

Once I was Green but often saw red

Ignored the Warnings whispered to me, Sang from the Heart but in the Wrong Key

Did it Matter? Did It Shatter? Did The Glass Break, What the hell for heavens sake



Dancing in the Moonlight, Thin Lizzy and Phil

The last bus home , Running up  that hill.

Does it matter Will it Shatter Will our Hearts Break What The Hell for Heavens Sake. 

Repeat n Fade

Shoulda Wudda Coulda Country Guitar beat back track jam in C Major

Shudda wudda cudda been a Rock n roll star






Shudda wudda cudda but I never got far





 As sure as Tick follows Tok I was born to rock.





As sure as Night follows day. I was born to play;





Missed my vocation Singing to the Nation. Should have been a Real Rocking Celebration.



But oh no I didn't make show, Much too Busy to play that Rock n Roll.




Shudda wudda cudda 
Shudda wudda cudda 
Shudda wudda cudda 
Shudda wudda cudda been a Rock n Roll star




Shudda wudda cudda but you never got far





Didnt really catch the Eye



Fame just passed me by


Shudda wudda cudda Shudda wudda cudda




Shudda wudda cudda been a Rockin roll Queen



Shudda wudda cudda  I know what you mean



Shudda wudda cudda  It was just a dream




I took a wrong turn and crashed that Mean Machine







I was sounding good  practicing alone. Busting my moves with a beat up microphone



Created a band with some old friends doing covers from way back when



And then we

Shoulda Woulda Coulda been Rock n Roll Stars



 We were just Dreamers propping up the Bars


Spent all night playing the Blues Catching up with more bad news when( I SHOULDA  WUDDA COULDA ) x4



Shudda wudda cudda been a Rock n roll star




Shudda wudda cudda but I never got far


 As sure as Tick follows Tok I was born to rock.


As sure as Night follows day. I was born to play;


Missed my vocation Singing to the Nation. Should have been a Real Rocking Celebration.


But oh no I didn't make show, Much too Busy to play that Rock n Roll.

Horses For Courses


 My thoughts are running thru my mind

People think that I'm unkind and wasting precious energy on gambling online.

But let them say what they think while treating me like a missing link, I aint part of a chain and know I aint going Insane. 

I believe in myself while leaning here on this shelf 

Writing out my Betting Slip. just one more Beer and one more Tip

Waiting for my Luck to turn, Dreaming of  tomorrow. knowing that I will Earn or beg steel and Borrow

Another Photo finish. A pounding in my heart. Cant we raise the flag again Go back to the start

Lady Luck is playing Hide n Seek. while I search for that winning streak, I bet my wages on a Bay Maybe I should call it a day.

No money in my Purse. Things are getting Worse

I made a promise to myself while Leaning on this shelf

Writing out My Yankee Bet. This is it No more debt.

Got a feeling that feels good.  My fingers crossed Come On Touch wood.

Cant believe he just pulled up and why o why Its just my Luck

Bad aint the word Going Insane Cant believe I didn't Win Again

Falling at the last when eight lengths Clear

Tear up the slip wipe away a tear

Get back to work Get back to life, How will I tell the wife

No money for Rent and I'm still bent on Making things right no sleep tonight

Bad thoughts are running thru my Mind

Family think that I;m unkind and wasting precious energy Gambling online.

I lost My Money

I Lost My Honey

And now I;m losing My Mind.

Cherry Red Apple Green Rock pop backing track D minor DM Bb F/C 87bpm


 Pull over baby The cherry Man said

Slow down your speed. The Devils ahead.



The Fruit may be Tiny but shiny and red

Don't swallow those stones Honey Kiss  them instead.




Be good to Your self  living  the Dream



Bitter ain't sour when Apple Green. 




Have Faith in The Orchard while the leaves fall.



Nothing But Cold Nights surviving is cruel.



What evolves from laughter is learning to cry 

Cherry Red Smiles Apple Green Lies (Repeat x 1)

BRIDGE & Chorus




One more time in the orchard we climb, Picking Red Cherries while sucking on Lime




Soon will be winter No Blossom No Flower. Just apples green Bitter Twisted and Sour.




The Juiciest Fruit wont ripen for Long




Its there in your youth and then fades until gone




Cherries are history, Green apples decay.



Fall from the tree and then fade away.

BRIDGE & Chorus

One more time in the orchard we climb, Picking Red Cherries while sucking on Lime




Soon will be winter No Blossom No Flower. Just apples green Bitter Twisted and Sour.





The warm summer sun The Harvest is King



An Angel of Mercy Unfurls Her Wings,




 Rainbows appear in the Bluest of skies Take a Deep breath with tears in your eyes.





Awake from the Dream Rise From Your Bed Embrace Apple Green and Cherries so Red.






Good Night Stranger the Cherry Man Yells





Embrace The New Shoots and the Sound Of Life Bells. 




We fade away in search of a light. To welcome New Fruit The Joy And Delight.

My Heads in a cloud. My Heart Shouts Loud

Music's my earth wind fire & water,
 Music is a Devoted Daughter.
 Music's my best friend a comfort for sure Stay with me baby while I fight the law.
 Didn't know what time it was Bowie would croon.
Star man on the dark side of the moon

Your never to old to do the stroll, Your never too young to play Rock n Roll

 
Simon and Garths Uncle sang to Emily and The James Gang, Parkers in pink so Hold back the Night.
Play Quadrophenia with Frank Lloyd Wright


The Rebel Yelled  You tore that Dress. Elvis record Blues in a mess
Hunter/ Ronson A Ferry Cover 
Sons and Lovers wish I were your Mother

 


Your never too old to do the stroll, Your never too young to play Rock n Roll


. Smokey's Miracle Smoke in the eyes. Alice aint desperate for a halo of flies.
 Point that Bad Finger at Baby Blue. Stand in the Road with Blackfoot Sue.


 Dave hears you knocking at Rock fields Farm. Bolan's Zipgun wont do you no harm.
Scots of Nazareth shot me down. Kinks made me cry over the death of a clown.
 Everything's Tuesday for Chairman and Board. Status Quo in search of a forth cord.

Your never too old to do the stroll, Your never to young to play Rock n Roll

 Had such a night with Doctor John. Ended up in bed with just the radio on.

 High tide with green grass. Beatle not Stone. Love rock n Roll with Blackheart and Joan.
 
Little pink houses for you and me. Johnny Cougar land of the free.
 Blame it all on Eve when she's tugging on your sleeve. 

Squeeze up The Junction The Doctor Feels Good, Dear Elaine and her friend Roy Wood,
 Your Never too old to do the stroll Your never too young to play Rock n Roll.
