Same Suffet, if you mean for the Woody Guthrie Birthday Bash. I'll be leading everyone in "Blowing Down That Old Dusty Road" as the opening number and in "This Train Is Bound for Glory" for the closer. I'll also be doing "Hard Traveling" with Rich Fried accompanying me on banjo and with Jessica Feinbloom singing back-up and playing tambourine. I'll probably do "66 Highway Blues" as a solo, and try out "My Mommy Flies That Ship In the Sky" as a solo as well. {Take the original song and sing "Mommy" instead of "Daddy" and sing "family" instead of "Mommy." It gives the song new meaning.) Also, I'll be playing guitar and singing baritone on "Oklahoma Hills," with Jessica on the lead vocal and Rich on the banjo.


With apologies to Woody...

I was standing down in New York town one day,
I was standing down in New York town one day,
I was standing down in New York town one day,
Just singing hey, hey, hey, hey.
Think I'll go to Woody's Birthday Bash,
Think I'll go to Woody's Birthday Bash,
Think I'll go to Woody's Birthday Bash,
'Cause five bucks ain't an awful lot of cash.

If you're down and out and you ain't got a dime,
If you're down and out and you ain't got a dime,
If you're down and out and you ain't got a dime,
Start saving now, 'cause you still got lots of time.

Unless your initials are maybe ADG,
Unless your initials are maybe ADG,
Unless your initials are maybe ADG,
Then let me know and I'll get you in for free!
