Unwanted Man - Guitars101

Unwanted man

Dont understand
No need to flee
Across the land
Nothing works
Out like he planned
No body wants
The unwanted man

Thought he'd rob
A bank last night
So he'd be wanted
By daylight
Not a witness
Saw his flight
Or looked on down
A rifle sight

No he aint wanted
By the law
In Tennesee
Or Arkansas
Unwanted man
Knows it aint right
Lord he cant pick
A decent fight

Thought he'd find
His self a squaw
A Cherokee
Or a Choctaw
For twenty horses
They just might
But they refused
Him out of spite

Unwanted man
Dont understand
No need to flee
Across the land
Nothing works
Out like he planned
No body wants
The unwanted man

Thank you very much.

I really enjoyed this post, I too think it flows really nicely. Nice combinations of sounds put together with the words chosen. I just put up an mp3 of a song I recorded a while back that these words reminded me of. It was cool to listen to again, so thanks for that too. Great stuff.

Hey Adams - It's in the original mp3 forum. It's an older piece done early on in my experience playing. It's not going to be anything to write home about. LOL. It was done on a sleepless night while away on business, so it lacks some things. You're writing reminded me of the lyrical approach I had hoped to take with it. Same vein and so forth. The link to the thread is below.

Thanks Wigrocks. I found it already and was thinking about putting some harmonica to it if you dont mind?I havent tried it with the lyrics yet but it just may work.Not bad man not bad.

GO FOR IT!!! It'd be an honor. How'd I miss the opportunity for a harmonica? LOL. That's a great idea, I think that would really fit nicely. Let me know when you have something. Cool stuff.

adams - have any luck with a harmonica piece? Just checking in, hope all is well.

Hi Wigrocks
Everythings fine on this end.Thanks for the concern.
Yes the harmonica part works out well but its giving me a hard time getting the sample type converted. If you could send the song to me in MP3 form then I could do my thing and get it right back to you.

I just shot a copy of the mp3 to your mail address, have some fun with it.
