Gman Blues with David Keeney: Music

• MP3 play whole song, hi-fi (broadband)
• MP3 short clip, hi-fi play (broadband)

Wrote this song and recorded the intial version out on the back deck while my kids were in the pool.

I was sitting there listening to them play "Marco Polo!" For just a moment once again the world seem safe and sane.

The feeling didn't last long however.

Back in '68

Words and Music by Gary Wesselhoff


I called your house the other day
there was no answer, I wanted to play
I wrote a song 'bout times not long gone,
yet so far away
before we went astray

Remember when we were just dreaming?
Still in school--no one was acheiving
sane by day; crazy all night
we were hangin' tight
everthing was right

Then one day I turned around
thirty years; careers gone down
Life's become so complicated
and the fog alieviated

When I look back I wonder where
I was dropped
without bus fare
Just one day would be so great
to be back in '68
