A simple folk song wrapped in a simple arrangement... subtitled "Ballad of the Unknown Folksinger"... I wrote this tune for the countless, amazingly talented, but largely unknown musicians I've met on the road...
Lyrics
CHORUS:
I am the great unknown and the road's my home
You will find me singing where the wild hearts roam
I am the great unknown
Lots of Facebook friends and adoring fans
You know I’ll be coming to a town near you
Just to sing these lonesome blues
I gotta van of gear and it cost me dear
You know I been singing for a bed and a meal
Just to tell you how I feel
CHORUS
I'm on the radio and TV shows
But lately I’ve been playing up on the open stage
Telling tales of a golden age
CHORUS x 2
I am the great unknown
I am the great unknown
I am the great unknown
I am the great unknown
I am the great unknown
