Yes and I write lyrics and assist in the arrangement of each song. I play some guitar.

Hey Jeff, I'm going to upload a song Swamp Metal Voodoo wrote in late '92. I'm singing and wrote the lyrics and assisted in arrangement. Y'all check back in a little while.

We'll be back tomorrow

Haha that me made laugh. I am only connected at 33.2 kbps. Will take a while.

[Dr. Bullet]

Like I said, tomorrow

I'm so tired...and hungry. Wanna grab some lunch?

[Trojan]

I heard you were up at 2am? I got up at 4am, lol. I watched the history channel about illegal drugs and then went back to bed till 11, lol. I'm on my 2nd cup of coffee trying to figure out if I'm hnungry yet. Sorry you feel bad.

[Dr. Bullet]

I'm ok...just dead tired and I can't talk (but I can whisper really loud!).

Allergies suck, I'll say that much. And of course, Allegra and Benedryl don't do anything.

Ok guys! Here it is. Remember I am from an earlier generation as most of you here. You can tell by the style of music this song is influenced by. We played everything from Metallica to Hendrix with our own Mississippi jams.

Lyrics:
Ball and chain

Too many times you gave up
You acted like you didn’t care
This is not a question pretty mama
You better take this as a dare

Too many times you walked out
You left me hanging on the line
You have to come back to me darling
You have got to believe me this time

Ball and Chain
Release from the pain
Ball and Chain
Release from your game

You gotta please me baby
You gotta have faith in me
You gotta listen to what I say now
It’s the way it’s gotta be

Love is not fun and games anymore
It can’t be some merry go round
No need to act like children now
Lets look up and never look down

Love is not a roller coaster ride
Or going through the tunnel of love
But I will stand up for my woman, yeah
When pushing comes to shove

Ball and Chain
Release from the pain
Ball and Chain
Release from your game

You gotta please me baby
You gotta have faith in me
You gotta listen to what I say now
It’s the way it’s got to be

Break it down!
Believe me when I love you baby
Believe me when I care
Believe me when I hold you now
Believe me when I stare

Ball and Chain
Release from the pain
Ball and Chain
Release from your game

You gotta please me baby
You gotta have faith in me
You gotta listen to what I say now
It’s the way it’s got to be

Ball and Chain
Release from the pain
Ball and Chain
Release from your game

You gotta please me baby
You gotta have faith in me
You gotta listen to what I say now
It’s the way it’s got to be

A ball of fire is what you are
Will you please keep me satisfied
If I knew that you would walk out again
Honey I would have never lied

A ball of fire is like our love
It keeps on falling to the ground
Going to get on my feet lucky lady
And together we will hit the town

Ball and Chain
Release from the pain
Ball and Chain
Release from your game

You gotta please me baby
You gotta have faith in me
You gotta listen to what I say now
It’s the way it’s got to be

Good song but shall i update your lyrics?

Ball and Chain
Release me from the pain
Ball and Chain
Release me from your game

Is that the highest quality you have of it? cause i'd love to have a higher quality version for my playlist.

[Trojan]

Thanks. Nope, this was recorded in late '92 pre mp3 digital age. This was recorded straight into a mixer then into tape deck.

[Jeff]

awh, do i smell a possible reunion so Jeff could get his high quality sound ?

[Trojan]

Never say never! I've got hours of songs still on tape. I'm going through my library picking out the songs I want to remake. The main guitarist in most of my songs that co-wrote them with me lives just down the street. We get together every so often to write new stuff. He's real busy with life and work and it's a struggle to schedule time these days but we are the closest out of all the band members. So there is always a chance. I've got to get my stuff together before anything.
