Liner Notes

#collaboration #folky #guywithguitar Another wonderful set of lyrics from SrCoops which I couldn't resist putting to music. The only thing I added was a repeat of the last verse. Really like the sentiment in these words. Respect to SrCoops!

Lyrics

Lyrics by SrCoops, music by me

They came from 
countries far and wide Putting their customs 
all aside



Their bravery was 
deep as the sea 
 Sometimes from tyrants 
 they did flee



They came leaving 
 all behind 
 and did the work 
that was a grind 

 They put their shoulder 
 to the load 
 and seeds of freedom 
they all sowed 



So honor those 
 who built this land 
They all deserve 
a great big hand

Nice adaption! Love the feel and vocals. The whistle is a great touch.

Lovely song that should be played during the ceremony to cover the Statue of Liberty in a black shroud for the next 4 (+?) years. Great lyrics, music, and vocal all around!

I really like the stripped down sound. Lovely guitar line with heartfelt vocals on top. Well done!
