Wel well well
We are very happy of the new line up of The John Wayne Supermarket :
we just keep our 2 Delta / Rockab' guitarists, The Twang (from The Rockin' Daddies / Les Ennuis Commencent who spends his time surfing in Marie Galante / French West Indies / Caribbean Sea) and Gorgie Boy (from Transcollective who uses to support The Hearts in Edinburgh / Scotland)... The third one is Franco, a real addict of Neil Young from the wonderful Ravishing Ronalds (Toronto / Canada).
Now we just put JL Bassman in the party, the first bassman of The Dum Dum Boys, one of our favorite bands when we were younger (Nice / France).
We are just finishing 2 new tunes and we are very excited !
That's all folks

MARY

Blue eyes gazed out across the bay
Pale blue eyes tinged with gray
In her heart a girl at play
Remembering...remembering
A life that was lived so long ago
Filled with loved ones she used to know
Places that she used to go
Remembering...remembering
A village bright with love and life
Torn, gone forever from war and strife
Friends who were taken, in the night
Remembering...remembering
Remembering how it used to be
When life was rich, and good, and free
Gardens brimming with earthly delights
Gypsy violins in the nights
Mingled with voices of young village men
From the winery nearby...how good life was then!
The little girl drowsy in her bed in the dark
Drifted off to sleep with peace in her heart
As the young men sang and the gypsies played on
And the wine flowed free 'til the early dawn.
Then came dark days, days of fear
Storm clouds drawing ever more near
The knock on the door in the still of the night
Brought tears and sorrow, anger and fright.
Still a young girl, afraid and alone
She left all she had, for places unknown
'La Liberte' greeted her in a mist from a boat
She had boarded for many days, afloat.
So began her life in this strange new land
With no one to help, to lend her a hand
Life was puzzling, hard, and mean
Still she forged ahead, into a future unseen
And now she stared out, eyes dimmed with age
At a time long gone, at a different page
Upon what once was, she fixed her gaze
Remembering...remembering.

Blue eyes gazed out across the bay
Pale blue eyes tinged with gray
In her heart a girl at play
Remembering...remembering...remembering
