I Have a Song for You (Heard About You in the News)
I have a song for you...
Heard About You in the News
I walked out into the garden
Down along the stream
And I heard about you in the news
We heard about you in the news
I heard about you in the news
With my dog when sky darkens
Fetching moonbeams
When I heard about you in the news
We heard about you in the news
I heard about you in the news
Robin out there in the sun
Singing in our yard
What kind of song can she sing
In a world so hard?
Distance unknown
The voices were thrown
But we’re on our own
Tonight
I walked into the shadows
Underneath the trees
When I heard about you in the news
We heard about you in the news
I heard about you in the news
And the whole world must have pulled me
down upon my knees
when I heard it, oh I heard it
Robin out there in the sun
Singing in our yard
What kind of song can she sing
In a world so hard?
I heard it on the news
we can't find our way
but we shouldn't have to choose
between the night and day

That bridge is a killer. I have no idea why but the song reminds me of I Can See Clearly Now by Johnny Nash.

Stoneman, thank you for those comments. You are such a supportive musician. May I return the favor and hear the latest thing of yours you are most into these days? I'm curious.
Also, thanks to you, Scott. I think I am pretty up on what you are doing with Neg Ten these days. Pushing your creative limits.
I feel have a new understanding of the simplicity that focuses my music. This new stuff "A Red Dog on a Blue Tree," I look for the simplest way.

By the way, someone put the song on the station called "This Machine Kills Fascist."
That's an honor. I love Woody Guthrie.
