These are some tunes written from 1968-80 and recorded July 23, 1984 at MacStudio using a 4-track Tascam Porta Mk II cassette recorder.
Time and money allowed for one take each track. I play all the instruments, including vocals, hand claps, and strange noises - thus my errors
are forever. It only took two tunes to realize the drum machine must be used to set a beat for the rhythm guitar, then let the Mosrite play a
bottom. Rhythm provided by Suziki guitar; Casio Synthesizer and Fender Stratocaster did the rest. My best attempts are:
Never Can Tell -- In The City -- Time Passes and the end lead to Days Of Our Lives and Love Isn’t Easy
This is my favorite. It has been recorded on one track, but I can not upload the format here.

Redneck Son of a Gun - Thom Mender 08-22-98
Verse: 1
C F
You say all I ever do is run around hunt and fish
 
You say I always let you down you say you never get your wish
C F
You’re always waiting by the phone if it rings ain’t never me
G F C
You whine and fuss and never win, Why won’t you let me be?
 
Verse: 2
You ain’t never been happy or glad. Sorry, but that’s you.
You got four kids I ain’t their Dad And I’ve got better things to do.
Your words got so loud I couldn’t stand to hear your shrilly voice.
I tired to speak, you would not hear I guess that was your choice.
 
Bridge:
C F
I’ve heard you now and I’ve heard enough and this thing here is true
G F C
I’m a redneck son of a gun and I’m packing pistol too
 
Verse: 3
We ain’t ever been even. Heck, we ain’t even been tied,
So I’ll just keep on going, cause you’re never satisfied.
Yet you keep on coming on strong, filled with fire inside.
So you can just keep moving on ‘til you figured why you lied.
 
Verse: 4
You say I haven’t got a clue, that all my leads run dry
But I’m not really worried ‘cause we all know how you lied.
You say I always let you down, you say you always got the itch
Well, I’m a redneck son-of-a-gun, and you’re one southern witch.
 
Bridge: 2
So I hear you now and I’ve heard enough, this conversations through,
‘Cause I’m a redneck son-of-a-gun, and I’ve had enough of you.
