On The Mississippi Somewhere that wheel is turning Wheel turning on a Riverboat Somewhere that paddle wheel is turning Somewhere on the Mississippi She was winsome in the standing in the spring Waiting ashore on her wedding day Fell in love with a gambling man Who gave up a chance to play She will be waiting there in the fall For love’s hand he will never play He fell flat for a flush in hearts Shot dead on his wedding day But time ain’t healing a lover’s tears He ain’t coming no matter what she prays Caught in the flow of that ole river Lover or losers the gambler pays So if there flies by a caring angel That lays rest a troubled heart Pray a good man comes along And let this river do its part Pray the river does its part Ken Lehnig©2013 Desert Wind Song Publishing BMI all rights reserved

She Belongs To Me She hides herself in shadows/ walking by the sea Watching all the lovers/ swapping souls for free She is the dancer in the moon And she belongs to me She's deceptive in the light/ you want to make it right She plays me for a fool/ but you would wouldn’t you She rises from the sea/wild at heart and free Has me dance the wayward fool/ but you would wouldn't you- wouldn't you She spins and turns the tide/ a lie is like a song I give her all my love/ and I know that it's all-wrong She is the halo in the moon And she belongs to me The islands move the spirit/ love wills don’t fear it Give away your heart/each soul will do its part She will have all she wills/but you will love her still She will play you for the fool/but you would wouldn't you She hides herself in shadows/ walking by the sea Watching all the lovers/ swapping souls for free She is the singer in the moon And she belongs to me Ken Lehnig© 2013 Desert Wind Song Publishing BMI all rights reserved

Amy Lowe 04:55
AMY LOWE When the sun came up this morning I found myself in a situation (cash negation) One that require a song or two Because I can’t find a sane explanation I heard you shouldn’t worry about tomorrow Tomorrow will have worries enough ( true enough) I’m standing here without a penny in my pocket The bank took back all my stuff Amy Lowe I been brought down low I think they rigged the game Amy Lowe I been brought down low I had it once I’ll have it again I don’t have a single answer Hell I ain’t no politician (above suspicion) All I know is now I’m a poor man American’s dreams are only fiction Amy Lowe I know I shouldn’t ask you But you know my love didn’t change Would you consider marrying me A couple things I may need to rearrange They can fake it when they can make it They can do what -what they will do The question really is do we take it Because I don’t know what is true Amy Lowe I just have to ask you Does the free falling get in the way Aint got no stock gave back the house But will you love baby love me anyway Ken Lehnig©2013 Desert Wind Song Publishing BMI all rights reserved

AIN’T IT HARD Em We stand on a road that we all start on Small and needy like you’re the only one I hope your momma loved you anyway This is the world God made for you that day And ain’t this a hard road/we running on In a race that no one/ has ever won When you were a child you had childish ways I hope your momma taught you how to pray You had hope for the future/ thought it would turn out well You were told about heaven and your were told ‘bout hell And ain’t this a hard road/we running on In a race that no one/ has ever won Then another one stepped into your life Love stuck to some/ others misery and strife You could be rich /or you could be poor Kept on wishing that luck would walk thru your door And ain’t this a hard road/we running on In a race that no one/ has ever won So your work yourself silly trying to get ahead Suffer for the things that climb in your head Some are defined by the work that they do The devil tells you that you know what’s true And ain’t this a hard road/we running on In a race where no one/ has ever won And ain’t this a hard road/we running on In a race where no one/ has ever won Lord ain’t this a hard road/we running on In a race where no one/ has ever won ken lehnig(c)2013 Desert Wind Song Publishing BMI all rights reserved

Gotta face yourself No matter how far you travel/ no matter what road you take Even gold will turn to dust/ no matter the choice you make Part your hair in the middle/ part your hair to the left You surly know what’s right/ try to do your best (As long as you)- Look in the mirror There ain't no one else Look in the mirror You have to face yourself Realize that you are all you got You’re a window looking out at the storm Work to get a handle on this crazy world You can do what ever you believe (stop) Let your flag unfurl No matter how far you travel/ no matter what road you take Even gold will turn to dust/ do it well for heaven sake Live life down the middle/ try to clean up your mess You surly know what’s right/ try to do your best (As long as you)- Look in the mirror There ain't no one else Look in the mirror You have to face yourself Realize that you are all you got You can fool them with your answers Lie when you misbehave You think you got it covered Ken Lehnig©2013 Desert Wind Song Publishing all rights reserved

Clowns in the doorway There are clowns in the doorway The circus is not in town I'm looking for a trapeze To swing my way out and down The Jester juggles woeful sins And smiles winsomely He knows but holds your secret Harlequins are a mystery I watched you do a pirouette Turning on a dime I'm left talking to myself Barkers dare my reckless hand Walking down the sad fairway Looking for a place to land Masked Dancers sing all my lies Mocking my every try The melody rises from the calliope I watched you do a pirouette Turning on a dime Covered my ears in vain protest Memories I still maintained They're loathsome and relentless I’ve lost more than I have gained The dancer said she loved me Cries but make no sound We are swinging ona trapeze With no net to let us down Ken Lehnig©desert wind song publishing BMI all rights reserved
