Folk You

Here’s something well over twenty years old that is begging to be sung. You can find this song and hundreds of others in my book of song lyrics called “Without The Music.” You’ll find rock, pop, gospel, country, blues and even a rap song. Whether you're a musician or a lover of well-written stuff you'll love "Without The Music."

Folk You

One man with an acoustic guitar
Singing songs sweetly in a lonely bar
His voice pure as an angelic dove
Proclaiming the majesty of love
Though the man is an innocent youth
Every note every chord speaks the truth
You would never call it rock and roll
But the music can sure move your soul

Folk you folk me
It’s a soft melody
Folk you folk me
This song’s for free

He’s a pilgrim from another age
When harmony was the latest rage
A modern-day Woodie Guthrie
Who’s not poisoned by electricity
Take a listen to his humble rhyme
And transcend to a faraway time
He can take you high or down to hell
Strumming that guitar he plays so well

Folk you folk me
It’s a soft melody
Folk you folk me
This song’s for free

He’s learned from tradition very old
Each song is a story to be told
He does what he does and does it good
He’s true to his heart like all men should
He might never see his name in lights
But it’s okay he’s feeling all right
His song is honest just how he feels
That’s better than a hundred record deals

Folk you folk me
It’s a soft melody
Folk you folk me
This song’s for free
