Carolina Way 03:01
Pickin' ole guitars, Sippin' Mason Jars Home in the country, who the hell needs a bar Ain't nobody thinkin', everybody's singin' Jonny Cash tunes, winding down for the weekend So raise up your beers, to all my friends here's To gettin' down up on a mountain til' the stars disappear And to bonfires burning bright Underneath the Southern sky Show a little love and you'll be ok Everybody let me hear you say hey That's the Carolina way Dip the boat in the water, turn the key to the starter Fill the cooler on up, we'll stay out a little longer Headin' up to the sand bar, no man it ain't far Everybody's there, just come as you are Down by the coast, floatin' in a boat Singin' summertime songs on the radio And the sunshine is feelin' alright Underneath the Southern sky Show a little love and you'll be ok Everybody let me hear you say hey That's the Carolina way Down by the sea, afraid to blink In your arms held tight is everything you need Wind in her hair, feelin' heaven everywhere Choose any place to be and you'd be right here Walkin' while the waves crash, feet make the water splash She's got your heart racing like the hundred yard dash So you lean on in and kiss your wifeUnderneath the Southern sky Show a little love and you'll be ok Everybody let me hear you say hey That's the Carolina way

Everybody, sing along To the good time, summertime song Don't need to know one word to know what's goin' on Livin' in a good time, summertime song And if ya gon' dance, don't dance alone If ya gon' go, take your baby on home This music got us feelin' so right we can't go wrong Livin' in a good time, summertime song A little salt on my skin That sweet Southern wind Baby down by the sea With my heart in her hands I just can't help but thinkin' Might be more than a man can stand But turn the radio up and play that song again Get everybody, sing along To the good time, summertime song Don't need to know one word to know what's goin' on Livin' in a good time, summertime song And if ya gon' dance, don't dance alone If ya gon' go, take your baby on home This music got us feelin' so right we can't go wrong Livin' in a good time, summertime song A feelin' captured by a pen Gets caught up in the wind Finds it's way into our souls And brings us together now and then I just can't help believin' It's something we all understand So hit track back and turn the radio up again Get everybody, sing along To the good time, summertime song Don't need to know one word to know what's goin' on Livin' in a good time, summertime song And if ya gon' dance, don't dance alone If ya gon' go, take your baby on home This music got us feelin' so right we can't go wrong Livin' in a good time, summertime song

Goodbye 03:48
Traveling down this lonesome road Got the peddle to the metal and I can't let go Of the people who mean the world to me Every time i leave ole' mom and dad I can't help feeling a little sad Someday I'll only see them in a dream And someday, I'll only see you in a dream Time keeps taking me away This life takes a little more of me everyday With the wind I'm gone again, and home just the same Learning goodbye is only a word people say No matter where I am, no matter what I do Where I go, or what I'm going through You'll find the people I love just beneath the surface of me I wish you could take a walk inside my mind Come back and tell if I'm wrong or right But right now is right where I want to be Oh yeah, right now, is right where I want to be And time keeps taking me away This life takes a little more of me everyday With the wind I'm gone again, and home just the same Learning goodbye is only a word people say When I'm gone Please don't put me in a shallow grave Burn my body down Let the wind carry me away Home I will be With you I will stay When time comes to let me be Goodbye we will never say But for now time keeps taking me away This life takes a little more of me everyday With the wind I'm gone again, and home just the same Learning goodbye is only a word people say Goodbye is only a word people say

Tumbleweed 03:43
Like a tumbleweed blowing in the wind Tossed about again and again Searching for a place to call home Adding up all you have, and all you've lost Think you've found a way to tally the cost And running, is all you're running from Someday you'll find the way to where you belong Before then you'll wonder when it was that you went wrong But every move you have made led you to this place Where life begins today Been around, think you've seen it all Climbed high enough to feel the fall And seems you have nothing left to give So you hold on tight to what you can't let go You'd move down the road if you could only know Ain't a thing left to lose, but the life you live Someday you'll find the way to where you belong Before then you'll wonder when it was that you went wrong But every move you have made led you to this place Where life begins today Where life begins today Where life begins today

about

Tumbleweed, like LivinLifeMan, is another extension of what happens inside my head. I have chosen to put these ideas into the world with hopes of helping individuals find their greater selves, and bringing people together. I have no idea where this path leads, but we will all see together. One thing's for sure, I've always been less afraid of the unknown than the reality we live in. Needless to say, I'm excited to take this journey with you.

released January 22, 2018

From the entirety of my heart, thank you to all of my friends, and family that helped make this next step in life possible. The Molloy's, The Blencowe's, Steven Lopes & Friends, The Ditzel's & Their Donuts, Kelly & Wyatt Durrette, Maria & Graham Lloyd, Tac Ralston, Jeremiah Moyer, Daniel Casasanta for pushing me to be like Nike and Just Do It (even though my heart is pure LLM), John Nimmons, Oscar Nimmons, Malee Chivacharern, Mom, Dad, Sister, and last, but in no way what so ever least, Kathy O'Toole aka KOT!! Reading back through this, it's funny, a lot of these sound like band names : ) Thank you all, "I" would not be possible without you!!

A very special thank you goes out to Levi Lowrey and Family. Levi, Stephanie, Boston, and Rosington were all amazing hosts during the recording of Tumbleweed. I can't thank you enough. Boston, keep ballin' man. Rosin, keep writing those comics!! You are both amazing young men, and I look forward to seeing you both again. Levi, not to be funny, but in my mind I have labeled you the Ninja of Noise, and the Samurai of Sound. Without you this EP would not be possible. Thank you for all you put into this project, Sir. It is as much you as it is me.
