about

Heard this crazy music at an arts fair in Jerusalem. Band played on a stage in a scaffolding with pirates, fire-eaters and jugglers, as drinks were being served. Anyway, took the tune home in my head and wrote something befitting crazy. Channeled my inner old peasant woman. Two of Peter Davis' takes just lay over each other perfectly.

Track credits: Voices and guitars - Stephen Scholle; Bass - Fred Gillen Jr., Clarinet - Peter Davis, Bass clarinet - David Rothenberg. Recorded at Fred Gillen's studio. Self-produced.

lyrics

When you keep your cow in the barn
Don’t forget to milk her in the morn
And when you feed your horses hay and oats
Don’t forget to also feed the goats

I can’t teach you everything I know
Don’t waste my time you so-and-so
Stop asking questions you’re so slow
You’ve just got to learn it on the go

When you go back there and cut the hay
Don’t waste your time there all day
And when you put the stones in the brook
Don’t forget you have to help me cook

I can’t teach you everything I know
Don’t waste my time you so-and-so
Stop asking questions you’re so slow
You’ve just got to learn it on the go

When you cook a meal in the pot
Don’t forget to serve it nice and hot
And when you sweep the scraps from the floor
Don’t forget to throw them out the door

I can’t teach you everything I know
You’ve just got to learn it on the go
Don’t waste these people’s time you crow
It’s way past time we get on with the show

Stephen Scholle Hartsdale, New York

Picked up guitar in 1967. Began writing songs in 09 after a breakup. TY to Fred Gillen, Burr Johnson, Peter Calo and the Ashokan music community for supporting my passion. I write from the chord voicings and I write from the voice inside. Some songs channel moments. Sometimes words just sound good. I like to let the song speak and I like to work with others on that. If you'd like, get in touch. ... more
