Song Title: No Basic Love
No Basic Love [Verse1] Csus9 It was just across the front yard Am But I can’t forget how far that last walk felt. Em Your white knuckles on the steering wheel as G I kissed your cheek and struggled for a F. ……Csus9 breath [Verse2] Hell I knew it was the last time I’d see your Face, I Felt it in my bones That was the longest 2 hour drive I’ve ever had, southbound highway headed home [Chorus] Am Seems the closer that you find yourself G Em. F To a dream the harder to wake up Am Holding on too tight to days gone by G Cause deep inside, we both know Em. F We both know darlin…yeah we both know Am This weren’t no basic love G…Em…F…..then back Csus9 [Verse3] So tonight here in this local dive, I lay Claim to my bar stool and settle down With an off-handed universal gesture The barmaid comes and I order my first round [Verse4] As she brought back my drink she touched my hand and smiled with want to in her eyes Girl I’d love to see how this plays out but I’m Not the hell you want to raise tonight [Small solo] [Bridge] G Well my candle’s always burning at both Am. Em ends. So the wick I lit for you is bound to F. G spend. Now I’m cursed to miss you longer Am Than I even got to love you Em And it’s not fair, no it’s not fair Am I’m here alone but I’m still out there G. Em Living out the dreams that you and I once F. G——Em——F shared [Chorus] Seems the closer that you find yourself To a dream the harder to wake up Holding on too tight to days gone by Cause deep inside, we both know We both know darlin This weren’t no basic love G-em- f G-em-Am [Tag] Am. G Well it’s time to let you go, even though, F. We both know…… Em. Csus9 This weren’t no basic love

Song Title: Highway Sound
I am 100% the songwriter of this unreleased song, music and lyrics. Thanks for the consideration for Fiesta Jam. -Ethan Smith HIGHWAY SOUND lyrics: 6 AM Playing to the sunrise and the wind At this roach motel I can hear the highway sound Smells like a cat did its business In the room, I could not sleep With a cigarette for breakfast On a 3rd floor balcony I hear the highway sound (instrumental solo) A man in a truck pulls up And he lets her out With a smile like he'd be seein' her again She moves away with the wind There ain't nothin' to be ashamed of, honey You don't gotta hide a little pain They say its like listenin' to the ocean Or maybe the sound of the rain When you hear that highway sound 6 AM Playin' to the sunrise and the wind And I don't know what the future holds But I hear that highway sound

Song Title: NOBODY THERE
NOBODY THERE Written by: Jessie Rae Woodward Verse 1 Invade my space Take your finger and trace, my mouth Now my lips are loose About to spit some truth, I should keep to myself We share a breath But I got nothing left, to give back to you Chorus ‘Cause when I Hold your body I wanna feel somebody next to me I hold your body but to me, there’s nobody there Verse 2 Our faces touch and It don’t mean much cuz you’ve seen all of me We are close to kill And I’ve lost the skill to love you like you need me to Bridge Theres just air all around all around us There’s just air, all around all around I can’t take it My heart misplaced it Chorus ‘Cause when I Hold your body I wanna feel somebody next to me I hold your body but to me there’s nobody there

Song Title: Morning News
Morning News Written by Bonnie Watson Got up, made my bed Turned the lights down low, drank my coffee slow shook my head listening to the radio Do I turn on the news or do I let it go? Most days I don’t know Cal is in the carport yelling bout his favorite sport Mary’s in the alley trying to find her tabby There’s a slow moving pace and there’s a fast rat race And a cluelessness all over the place We’re all looking around to make sense of it all Is this leading to something or is this the fall I’ve been talking to Susie down the street she’s been talking to Ken They share the same beliefs It ain’t doing nothing to pull out your hair To be unaware or to be aware Of what’s going on down the block It’s just the morning news bullshit talk What did they say now, what did they do Is it the same old stuff or is it something new I can’t say that I’m shocked but I’m still kinda shocked Feels like we’re living in a Sweeney Todd barber shop Morning shows on the television Smiling faces selling a vision Is it a lie, is it the truth Does it matter anymore or is the point mute It’s a dizzying daydream blind man spell Its a telltale sign we’re all going to hell It’s just another war, another poor Losing their home losing the score Jim is at the station convinced he’s in a simulation Karen’s at the shop calling the cops Wanda’s up the road blowing her nose Is it a deadly disease? Nobody knows It’s just the morning news bullshit talk Oh left wing, right wing, center of the aisle Its a civil war, its a gaslit smile Corruption over here, corruption over there corruption in air, corruption everywhere Can’t somebody do something to stop the man To stop the machine Is it the end of times History rhymes Are we paying for our sins, are we paying for our crimes Barely keeping our heads above water Fighting for our rights Fighting for our brothers Fighting for a home Fighting for some food Fighting for out health Fighting for a good mood It’s just the morning news bullshit talk

Song Title: Where the Dust Don't Clear
Where the Dust Don’t Clear Written by Bonnie Watson The river is long winding round the bend if I could I would jump right in Let it take me away from here Doesn’t matter where If I hit the road how far I’ll go, I don’t know Out of this one horse town, with the red dirt ground Where the dust don’t clear My mamma done raised me all alone my daddy was a rolling stone Maybe it’s him in me Tryin to break out free To be on my own I never could sit still at a desk in school I was a space cadet They’d always tell me to come back down plant your feet on the ground Where’d you go? And the river goes far you can’t see the end If I ride it down would I come back again? To this little old town Where the whispers are loud And the grass ain’t green Maybe I’ll see So I tried to save up a bit of cash, to buy a car and a tank of gas Took me a good long while Working at the liquor store Painting on my best fake smile But the day did come I bought that oldsmobile It had a leaky pipe and a rusty wheel That car was loud as hell But it got me there somehow I never felt more free Never felt more me Driving down that open road With the windows down and the radio Wind blowing through my hair Breathing in that fresh air The smell of change Eventually I ran out of gas Been trying to fill it up ever since It’s been 8 years now I’ve been lost in some new town I’ll find my way At least that’s what I say

Song Title: American Dream
Ain't no freedom, If you can't buy land, where every house on the hill is owned by the same man I got a job I work today, there ain't one waking hour worth the hell you pay There ain't no long road plan for the highway man but if I gotta make a living why you making a killing, off the backs of a man who is only driven for a house on a hill, I can find a hot meal, the American dream, ain't that the deal I see the young they, are coming up It ain't no draft dodging red face son of a bitch that's gonna tell them, that they gotta buck up No there aint no freedom, if you can't buy land, where every house on the hill, is owned by the same man Now if you're old come out of the dirt, somebody's got to do the concrete work Aint no long road plan for the highway man Every red cent dream, every dime between, every quarter i make goes to this machine You got to build you a house on the top of your back, you got to find you some land, you got to put it on that God gift me a spring, ima dig this well, I come a far, as the far side of hell Where the rich man, is mean, And the poor man, is to lean, All you middle men, you oil this machine, I can't say for sure not how far I'll get, but this ain't the day of me dying just yet Is it a hill of beans, these American dreams, i got a colt .45 do i live or do I die, you know you young and old, have you all been sold, you'll long be dead before the body goes cold Oh, there ain't no freedom, if you can't buy land, no there aint no freedom, if you can't buy land I say there aint not freedom, If you can't buy land

Song Title: 250 Years
Imagine if you will You’re driving home with Bill Police pull you over no reason why They take Bill from the wheel His life they just did steal Before the judge reads his rights No one knows in which jail and there is no posting bail When they fly you beyond that border line Your spirit they aim to break As they admit to their mistake But won’t bring you home out of spite Two Hundred and Fifty Years Of my family living here Born in the United States We should not have to live in fear Of being disappeared Because our skin isn’t white My birth certificate I keep in my pocket Every where I go every day all the time Two American Citizens But the one with the brown skin Does not have the same rights Call it privilege In truth it’s sacrilege yet it’s been this way our entire lives You will not notice it Until directly effected but everyone will pay the price Call it privilege In truth it’s sacrilege yet it’s been this way our entire lives You will not notice it Until directly effected but everyone will pay the price Music & Lyrics by Albert Reyna

Song Title: Glass House Farms
Working the fields in the heat, rain and snow Following the crops as far as they go Apples and oranges, cherries and grapes Pickin’ them all to set upon your plate A sunrise bloomed at the start of the day The smell of fresh soil after the rain Strong hands and strong hearts at one with the Earth for the Glass House Farms soon would learn their worth Unmarked vans slammed open their doors Men poured out wielding weapons of war No where to run and its useless to hide When fear mixed with anger begin to collide Tear gas was burning the air that we breathe Flash bangs exploded and made our ears ring Men wearing masks to cover their shame Abused and arrested, kidnapped and detained Two hundred men that day never came home Their whereabouts to their family unknown She lies to her children as she puts them to bed Not knowing if their father’s alive or if he is dead Are you a friend or are you a foe Or maybe you just really don’t know When a human’s in need do you stop to decide To ask for their papers Before you stand by their side Are you a friend or are you a foe Or maybe you just really don’t know When a human’s in need do you stop to decide To ask for their papers Before you stand by their side

Song Title: 58 Ford
I was walking the other day This man was lookin at me kinda strange And he didn’t even know what time it was What a shame He was from down the road And I didn’t think he even knowed That he loved this place Its a tragedy 20 some years all alone Couldn’t even tell a stone To a toad or anything Oh man Listening to the radio Believeing everythinbg he was told To extremes Rotting his brain Well the strange man bought A 58 ford And went out looking for some more straddled down the road Lookin for Trouble Burning rubber down the road The 58 ford had a mind of its own Every mile that passed was shorter than the last It seemed like the car was driving its self No hands or nothing or anything for help As the man drove past I couldn’t believe my eyes I saw the strange man doing 90 Drive off a cliff screaming blimey God damn it all I had to double take

Song Title: Umbrella
Love isn’t old, but it’s gray It’s the butt’s end, a cigarette stain I didn’t break the line I’m just taking my time to waste it right I never had an umbrella I never thought I’d be dry from the rain Won’t you be my umbrella Or should I count on you again? I’m falling for love it seems The spark and glimmer of yesterday’s dreams The shadow of your breath in between Your teeth and lips, don’t know what it means I never had an umbrella I never thought I’d keep dry from the rain Won’t you be my umbrella Or should I count on you again? Shouldn’t I, couldn’t I, Be with you here once again? I never had an umbrella I never thought I’d keep dry from the rain Won’t you be my umbrella Or should I count on you again?
