Dakota helped me record piano for a new song today at the Greene City Courthouse today

I don't usually post anything other than my music or art on this blog, but I'll be damned if I'm not feeling obligated to post some pics of this weird Gibson guitar that I'm buying. It's a 1965 Gibson LG1 with what looks very much like a refinished body... At first, I really hated the color, but now I think it's kind of part of it's mojo. And the best part of it is, I'm getting it for less than $500. Dig it.

A few shots from my music video shoot yesterday

[gradydrugg]

Grady Philip Drugg - Agua De Coco

Standing by, you’re someone else So divided in yourself

Personal attacks become the norm It becomes too hard to keep my heart warm

Couldn’t tell me where you’ve been You’re no different than any of them

Narcissism becomes the norm It’s so obvious, nobody really needed a warning

What sort of difference does it make When you never give and only take?

I hope your “experiment” delivers results I hope someone thinks your “performance art” is somehow thought provoking I used to proud to call you a friend But that time is over

Grady Philip Drugg - Whatever, Dude

(Instrumental)

Grady Philip Drugg - Liar

You’re a liar, whar are you trying to prove? You’re a liar, you think that you can do Whatever you want, but I see through you You’re just a liar, what are you trying to prove?

You demand respect, I don’t believe in it

So now you’re crying, “Where are all my friends?” I’m so tired of trying to make sense Of whatever you say, but now it ends Cuz now you’re crying, “Where are all my friends?”

You demand respect, I don’t believe in it

Why can’t you just grow up and be Completely reformed? Live in the real world with the rest of us It’s real easy when you just tell the truth

You demand respect, I don’t believe in it

Grady Philip Drugg - Stick It Out (Hold On)

Check it out, I just can’t take it This isn’t how I wanna go It’s all about how they tell you just to fake it But not really the act of actually doing so

I’ll stick it out I’m gonna hold on And I don’t care if anyone sees

Chickened out, I don’t think I’m gonna make it I fall to the ground and gasp for air So much doubt on my mind, my knees are shaking I can’t talk like that, I’m not going anywhere

I’ll stick it out I’m gonna hold on And I don’t care if anyone sees

Check it out, I just can’t take it This isn’t how I wanna go It’s all about how they tell you just to fake it But not really the act of actually doing so

Grady Philip Drugg - I’m Hiding Away From Your Love

I'm up in my head, I'm down on my luck I'm hiding away from your love There's something around, it's holding me down I'm hiding away from your love You lay in our bed in dead of night I really don't wanna fight I'm hiding away from your love I really don't wanna fight I love you so, I hope you know I don't wanna hide from your love Your my best friend 'til the end I don't wanna hide from your love

Grady Philip Drugg - Wide Eyed

Something other than your natural state has come on You’re somewhere else besides your house Then she walks in and asks you what you’re doing tonight And you get quiet as a mouse before you say,

“Look at me, I’m happy as can be and I’m wide eyed” She’s in disbelief, “How can you be so wide eyed?”

Later on, you begin to believe she was right You’re such a fool right about now You feel so rigid and you’re grinding your teeth all night It’s left you wondering how

She knew all along that you were wrong to be wide eyed All alone cooped up in your home You’re so wide eyed

Nothing shrinks to the size that you want it to be

The world’s so big and it blows your mind when you’re wide eyed But don’t you let her change your mind

Grady Philip Drugg - Calvin’s Truck

(Instrumental)

Grady Philip Drugg - Great

Underscore the lines You want me to forget I complain that it’s so hard to work And get these habits out of my head

I know that I’ve been bad to you, I know that you have cried, I don’t wanna be a loser, I know that harder I could try Would you truly, truly forgive me If I swear to lay down my life Just to make this thing great?

Let me know the ways I can make you glad I hate to see you feel this way I hate to know you’re feeling so bad

Let me know the ways that I can help And I’ll do the best I can You don’t have to face the day alone, Let me lend a helping hand Be it big or small or in between, I’ll do anything at all Just to make this thing great

[gradydrugg]

Grady Philip Drugg - If You Love Her

If you love her, you should let her know Try to make it show It’ll find its way out soon It’s in your heart, you’d hate to see her go That you already know So try to make it bloom

Holding hands and making plans It’s all you wanna do Tell her now, don’t miss the chance Or you’ll be feeling blue

So if you see her, just tell her how you feel You’ll be sure to steal Her heart away from her

Holding hands and making plans It’s all you wanna do Tell her now, don’t miss the chance Or you’ll be feeling blue

[gradydrugg]

Grady Philip Drugg - Who Can Really Say

Who can really say what it’s all about? What I did today? I didn’t even try to leave the house

A dirty look into my face Such stunning grace

Who can really say what it’s all about?

I don’t hear what they say They only try to bring me down

Putting thoughts into my head With the words they said

Who can really say what it’s all about?

[gradydrugg]

Grady Philip Drugg - Nonbeliever

Throw it in a river far away And we’ll watch it sink

Go cuz I’m a nonbeliever anyway Go and save yourself from drowning in the bay

What ever shall I do to get a hold of you? Do I have to watch it sink Into the river far away? Jump into the water And cover it with clay?

Go cuz I’m a nonbeliever anyway Go and save yourself from drowning in the bay
