   2-24-03- DUSTY he rode the stage coach to the west slept under a bridge when he had to rest, walked a many a dusty road and herded the range on the horse he rode, played guitar for drinks from friends had tales to tell that never ends, ol g.w. was one of a kind, i loved him well as a friend of mine, you would not believe all the things he had done, nothing bad, everything just for fun, dusty was the cowboy when i seen him cry, dusty was the cowboy who went where the eagle flies.
   3-03- A SPELL a spell down the road is the spring at the edge of the grove, down past the trail we seek, a gathering at franklin creek, the third annual trips festival looks more like a freak carnival by the hair of slewfoots fur g.w. made us the family we were,but remember once again we can be one big happy family by the spring at the edge of the grove, up past a spell down the road.
   3-03- MEMORIES duping all my g.w. tapes, memories for memories sake, good times we have seen it all, the life we lived was just a ball, guitar banjo and percussion we had every kind of instrumentation, drank some beer as we did play, had some good times i must say.
   3-03- NURSING HOME BLUES drinks beer in his shack playing guitar, smokes from a pipe got his teeth in a jar, they listen to him play while stamping their canes as he picks away their blues again, they might get drunk and have a good time as g.w. writes the words that rhyme, we sing along in a happy get together,as we wish time would stop altogether, he would play and we'd sing along, alzheimers made us get the words all wrong, he would sing and pick the blues away i this nursing home where the kids put us to stay.  
   5-03- THE FOREST JAMS when you walk thru the woods, on the way to franklin creek out near old mill road is the spirit that you seek, you can hear him playing his guitar near the  the springs, his songs ring of laughter and the joy that it brings, his heart may have stopped but his beat still lives today with the gurgling brook and in the winds sway, some say his harmonica still plays after dark with the beating of drums made from the tree bark, while others say his voice echos in the high grass and you can always hear the ancient voices on the distant past, along the creek near a bend there's a cave up out of the mud some say he's there with slewfoot to help out in case of  flood, so if you hear music as you walk the trail, remember the stories of his ghost are true, so behave yourself and don't leave a mess and maybe his good spirit will sing for you,  i've felt him there i know its true the forest jams with g.w., l 've felt him there i know its true the forest jams with g.w.
