Don't Worry, Get Happy! (The War Song)
Peter Black (1991)
Woke up too early this morning
couldn't sleep no more
Crawled out of my bag where I'd crashed
on the floor the night before
Turned on TV, got Channel Four
They were showin it off, the brand new war
Don't worry, get happy!
Don't worry, get happy!
They were talkin bout the gas for my car
Bout how the prices were gonna drop so far
How with a little patience and a care
A young person could save up enough money
to buy a house somewhere
Don't worry, get happy...
They showed me some guys with gas masks on
They showed me 'a target that got hit right on'
The prognosis was for a 'total cure'
They 'really fucked the bastards, that's for sure'
Don't worry, get happy...
They were discussin 'the pursuin and the takin out'
They said 'it would be over without a shout'
Then they said they'd done 'reasonably well'
That's a pretty good phrase for
'reincartinatin hell'
Don't worry, get happy!
Don't worry, get happy!.

Song To Marty
Peter Black (1977)
Hadn't seen her since we were kids
Workin out of Taos sellin lids
When I got that letter from the south of the border jail
Lettin me know the matter'd gone a long past bail
Let that letter fall to the floor
Got into my sixty-four
Went to town and withdrew my wad
Unlockedk the glove and checked my rod
Stuck that pistol under the seat
Drove across the desert, avoided the heat
Made it to the border that night
Knew everything would be all right
By daybreak, I'd made it to the prison gate
The doorman there told me I was only three days late
For to gypsy bandits she'd been sold
Gonna turn that fair skin into gold
Drove on out into the dawn
Searchin for that ble-eyed fawn
Stopped by Jesus' to make the score
Knew I cound buy back that newborn whore
Then he laid me on to some reality
About the possibility
In a town just a further west
Where they only kept the best
I found her there in that sad cafe
Dancing for quarters it just don't pay
Knew with the help of Tequila I could steal her away
Drink on, gypsy bandits, ole
Stuffed her in the back of the pick-up truck
Headin for the border just to try our luck
Really did't turn out to be that hard
Gettin by the border guard
One the freeway to LA
Only ninety miles away
There it was we sell the stash
And we'd raise a little cash and we'd flee
Made it up the coast to Monterey
Everything looked to be ok
Found ourselves a little motel room by the sea
Kept our profiles low, avoided curioity
Made Love that night and started our fight
Jesus never felt so right
Then in the dawn, walkin the beach
There in the bay, freedom in reach
Yes, with a little help from the fishin fleet
Gettin us back on our feet
Got us north to Noyo and the redwood tree
And you can bet your ass, we are free
This was writ with Marty Robbins in mind back in the
later 70's in the great seige at the El Camino Motel in San
Rafael on BlueBelly's 12-string guiair.

Trip On Me
Peter Black 1980
She,
Talkin bout she
Yes she
She laid a trip on me
Laid a trip on me
Laid a trip on me
(Talk about readin your beads)
Somebody please find me some light
Somebody, please, get me a flashlight
I helped her out to the car
I always wondered she how far
she'd go
Got the card from Yosemite
Askin me if I could finally see the mountains
in her mind
Guess you could say she took a trip
Yeah, she kinda gave me the slip
that night
So if you've got her
hold her tight
Who knows thing could work out right
tonight
Tonight
Tonight
Tonight

Way up in Ross enduring the hard winter of 1980.

Wayne is always on the edge with the unexpected
A Teenager Too
Peter Black
from traditional beginnings
Boston 1963
When you're at the drag strip
You better play fair
Cause you know he's right with you
In his full-blown Corvair
You know he was like me and you
He was once a teenager too
Some people play him the fool
But, I'm tellin' you, that guy is cool
You know that guy could rock 'n roll
You could say he had some soul
You'd see him, into town he'd strut
Tried to steer clear of the authorities but...
You know some times, he'd get lit
Wanna go to town and kick some shit
He's the one who kicked the bankers
off the synagogue stairs
They all thought he had somethin' wrong upstairs
You know he was like me and you
He was once a teenager too
Some people play him the fool
But, I'm tellin' you, that guy is cool
recorded live on Labor Day Weekend in Fort Bragg CA at
JamFestX onto a fallen video camera. 9.07
This mix really puts a spotlight on Wayne's wild guitar
inventions. Where is that saxaphone part comin from?
You're A Sad Song
Peter Black (2006)
Unread, your note still sits on the mantle
Lit by the just extinguished candle
You're a sad song
Your empty plate still set at the table
No need for a confirming cable
You're a sad song
A snowstorm fills the television screen
The room is filled with the babble
from a radio unseen
You're a sad song
An empty coat hook down at the end of the hall
Through the open back door, the darkened sky,
the rain begins to fall
You're a sad song
Your shadow lies hidden beneath the fallen leaves
Your last breathe here is the very air I breathe
You're a sad song
recorded as being written in The Spare Room at home alone
with the recorder goin. August .06
