This is my first entry to OpenMic. I hope you will enjoy.

Go Down Easy

Lyrics:Jay Bolotin
Music:Jay Bolotin

Linda lost her lover in the early part of autumn
And she moved out to the country hoping all would be forgotten
The last time that I saw her she was makin' sure the winter
Wouldn't come through that old door frame
Where the door is several inches from the ground, the cold hard ground

(Chorus)
And it's hard to go down easy
And it's hard to keep from cryin'
And it's hard to lose a lover in the early part of autumn

Well, she learned to cook the meals and she learned to start the fire
And she learned to make jewelry out of stones and precious metals
She sits down to the table with her friends and several others
And she tries real hard to never be alone

(Chorus)

Now the winter wind blows cold upon a fair and gentle soul
And she feels as if her time is passin' easy
Her friends are sometimes lovers, though they'll always be another
She thinks about when the night time lays on down

(Chorus)

Super nice and sweet brother!

Thanks Bub! Saw the pics with your family. Sweet! Hope you enjoy Europe now. Any plans where you go next?

We are doing dog and catsitting in Holland for a month, great houses for free, better than AIR bee en bee (for the sake of rhyming) :-)

Well if you are ever going my way, let me know!

Beautiful song, beautifully played

Loved your performance. Can't wait to hear more.

Excellent!! great performance!

Cool song and performance, Shep! Welcome brother - nice maiden entry, man!

Thank you! It's a nice song. Actually I never heard Jay Bolotin's version of it, I know it only played by Dan Fogelberg. But he did it so nice!

You're welcome and thanks for the music.

very enjoyable. I could probably watch you for a whole show.

That's a very nice thing to say. Thanks!
