CHAPTER IV

lyrics

I’ve been a ranch hand all my life
Had three children and a beautiful wife
Love was the gold on the vine
In my eyes the sweet glow of wine
I’ve been a ranch hand all my life

Down in the prairies in the morn’
I see the sun rise in the East
I see the sun set in the West
And I put the cattle to rest
I’ve been a ranch hand all my life

I’ve been mistreated and treated like dirt
They tossed me and pulled me and used me for good
But I taught my kids what this life is worth
I’ve been a man all my life

Wake up and work very hard everyday
Seeds to saw, gotta pile up the hay
Taking my time to wait out the storm
I’ve been a ranch hand for long

I’ve been mistreated and treated like dirt
They tossed me and pulled me and used me for good
But I taught my kids what this life is worth
I’ve been a ranch hand all my life

Guilherme Boisson Rio De Janeiro, Brazil

I learnt how to play the guitar twice. First from my grandpa, then from the records of Townes Van Zandt.
"Pick it!" That's what I always heard. And that is how I got the blues.

I guess one could call the music I make folk music. For me it's an attempt. I hope it gets to you. I hope you find something in it. And if you do, share it, pass it on.

Tnks, friend. And remember: "To live is to fly."
