Firekeeper 04:14
I got this fire inside me I can't let it out Otherwise I'll burn me You don't know this But I got those creations And they want to be free from me I take all these memories with me I take all these memories with me And all emotions and ideas I kept for so long in my heart I got this fire inside me I can't let it out One day it's to late To escape Please take all these memories with me Please take all these memories with me And all emotions and ideas I kept for so long in my heart Burning flames I take all these memories with me I take all these memories with me And all emotions and ideas And I hide them in my heart Where all the fire is locked in

Don't worry honey I'll finde something to eat Don't worry honey I'll finde somewhere to sleep Don't worry honey I'll finde somehow to breath Don't worry honey I'll finde someway to be But you know this time is hard To find the right things to do And you know this world is not fair Because someone is always the fool And you know this time is hard To find the right things to say Because the poor always have to pay So stay with me

Just Honest 02:31
Yeah I'm an old man with a lot of stories I can tell you that I drove a lot of lorries I worked this and that, been here and there Now I have free time and dust in my hair Come on let's have a beer I can teach you something This life wasn't for nothing Well I'm just honest, I can't help it If I can't work with you, I'd rather say it I have a small house for me and my girl Let's grow a banana tree, give this life a new whirl And I don't care what the others say As long as you stay and don't betray Come on let's have a beer I can teach you something This life wasn't for nothing Well I'm just honest, I can't help it If I can't work with you, I'd rather say it Well it's not my bad I'm just a simple man Well I'm an old, old man with a lot of stories I can tell you that I drove a lot of lorries I worked this and that, been here and there Now I have free time and dust in my hair

about

I put an ultimatum to myself for this special mini album. All seven songs should be recorded on one day, with each not having more than 6 tracks. If not I would have deleted everything and start all over again. But I did it.
It has been recorded in approximately 10 hours on 9th July 2014.
I wanted "Mandolin Lives" to sound old and used, so my special thanks go to Jack White and Neil Young for the inspiration they gave me with "A Letter Home".
