Ghost Sliders In The Sky (to the guys of CigarBoxNation); Jamie MacBlues

YEEEHAAAAAAA, mosey on down to the Coral, and get some grits, guys ;) Ghost Sliders In The Sky (Jamie MacBlues)
Ghost Sliders In The Sky (Jamie MacBlues)
1.As I was walking ‘round on CBNation land one day,
I saw some real tough hombres, they was starin’ back ma way
Pinetree Joe with steely eye, and enigmatic Clock
Enough to put as gentle man, in 10 different states of shock

Chorus: Ypee aye ay.yippe aye oo oh. Ghost sliders in the sky

2. Oily strat, da doo Ron Ron, he struts a far off land
While Roadkill John a quiet sole, would kill ya where ya stand
Uncle John, who watches all, has a gun that shoots through steel
Whilst Carlton saves on bullets, he just stamps ya dead with a cowboy heel

Chorus: Ypee aye ay.yippe aye oo oh. Ghost sliders in the sky
3.Well when these guys make their bottleneck slides, they make them with their teeth
Spittin’ out the glass and blood, and taking knives from sheaths
And Anderst, jabes and steve chunk haless, some of Britain’s most wanted men
Are in the gang of Leadfoot T, who can kill ya twice again
Chorus: Ypee aye ay.yippe aye oo oh. Ghost sliders in the sky

4.Jason, Katfish, Donald Jack, and Tom Bingham if found
All across the telegraph their name like, Bob’s, resounds
And Poostick Paul, a cautious man, in an outhouse he stands guard
While Slowpaw Steve he sings a song, while StumbleCol and Chickenbone play cards
Chorus: Ypee aye ay.yippe aye oo oh. Ghost sliders in the sky

`
5. Well ah’m sorry if ah missed some guys, let me try ta make it right
Ed badfinger , Richard G, and Wes Carl dance in the night
Whilts Ellwood T, Bemusic, and James look to the sky
And wave to Dan and Tiny Bites , and Fatt Max as they fly by
Chorus: Ypee aye ay.yippe aye oo oh. Ghost sliders in the sky
And all the rest of the guys as well

Comment by Thorsten Hinrichsen on May 8, 2012 at 10:36pm: Thank you, JAmie, very kind of you! So I'm starting a band called GHOST SLIDERS ... (I'll possibly attach location like FROM or IN ...) right now, girls and boys - seriously!

Comment by Jamie MacBlues on May 8, 2012 at 9:33pm: @ Joe sorry, ma man; did not have time to add bagpipes to it lol

@Thorsten : thanks. You are welcome to use name, before anyone else does. I don't want it (cept for the song lol)

Comment by Thorsten Hinrichsen on May 8, 2012 at 7:42pm: Fantastic! Ghost Sliders - would make a nice band name.

Comment by PinetreeJoe on May 8, 2012 at 3:09pm: Thank you , Jamie., for the mention. Never dreamed that I would be included in a traditonal Scottish ballad.

Very nice work.,

Comment by Jamie MacBlues on May 7, 2012 at 10:35pm: Ta much, Mr Turtlehead (heroes in a half shell) ;)

Comment by turtlehead on May 7, 2012 at 2:45pm: So good I had to listen to it a couple of times. You crack me up Mac. A+

Comment by Jamie MacBlues on May 7, 2012 at 8:03am: Thanks, Hal. . Would be a lot more difficult to do on a three string! Sure your version is fine. All versions are fine. Cheers, ma man :)

Comment by Habanera Hal on May 7, 2012 at 7:36am: Jamie, that was AWESOME! "Ghost Riders" is one of the few songs I've learned to pick out and your playing puts me to shame. Great job!

Comment by Jamie MacBlues on May 7, 2012 at 7:05am: Ta , Jim. It isa good song. My co writer and I got Kim to demo it

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YcdxQ786c7Y (Kim is singiung backing to Bee Gees, on Strictly: tall girl on right, playing hand held rhythn pad). Kim also recorded a song for us, out on an Xmas CD (not the Xmas song you heard, Jim). The Xmas song you like is not really an Xmas song,as you know.Just "happened at Xmas time.

BTW "ENT Jim". "Ear Nose And Throat Jim" ?? lol
