This second solo effort by Dale Thompson is much different from his first. He combined the talents of the region's most talented musicians to assist him this time. This recording, like his first, is a concept that shows one man's struggle through life. Many of the stories that are incorporated are

from Dale's past. Using real horns, keyboards, and many other unusual instruments, Dale produced a very believable blues recording. This record is available in stores and was originally distributed by Rugged Records.

Lyrics:

Bullet proof body

walking through walls

Vegas like a birth mark

let the chips lie where they fall Gun powder on his corn flakes get's him high like caffeine

Rolled his own cigarettes mind full of jealousy

Brass knuckle collection good with a tire iron

Prozac kept him steady

black coffee was the snake charm

Never bit his nails cause his knuckles drug the ground

Now he's fishing with Jesus outside of town

Used to drink the muddy water drank it from a bone

Danced with spirits promenading from stone to stone

Bruised like the Bismarck heart like the arctic ice

Eyes as big as half dollars When he threw the dice

He found love on three rusty nails

Surrendered all on three rusty nails

Used to sharpen his fist on a smooth wet stone

Scars stitched like a railroad track up and down his arms

Then he saw life cursed upon a tree

Like a lone flower at cave hill cemetery
