My new song "Home Six Mile"

I just wrote a new song. Finished it at 7am this morning. It's about growing up on Six Mile.

Home Six Mile

No shirt, blue jeans, running bare feet. Honey suckle growing up and down the creek. Railroad tracks and a fishing hole I got a Rainbow Trout on the end of my pole.

Yes its been a while Still makes me smile When I think about … home Six Mile

White house, porch swing, chestnut trees Sunday morning church, Jesus set us free Jeanie and Susan, little brother, that’s me Childhood memories, good family

Front yard, green grass, all the cousins play Granny and Paw, “making-apple-butter-day” Don’t worry, don’t fret, it don’t make sense Just knock that whiffle ball over the fence

Yes its been a while Still makes me smile When I think about … home Six Mile

Cross cut saw in the blacksmith’s shop Floating down the river on an old car top Playing guitar at the Boone County Fair Family and friends, everybody’s there.

Full moon, crickets by old water fall Fireflies, hoot owl, listen as them call. Hound dogs barking, there’s a fox on the run Slipping through the woods with my old shot gun

Yes its been a while Still makes me smile When I think about … home Six Mile

Bridge Sometimes I wonder how the days have come and gone When I need break from life, I love to sing the six mile song … about …

No shirt, blue jeans, running bare feet. Honey suckle growing up and down the creek. Railroad tracks and a fishing hole I got a Rainbow Trout on the end of my pole.

Yes its been a while Still makes me smile When I think about … home Six Mile
