WHEN CHRISTMAS
TREES WERE TALL

This Christmas song was written by
Mark & Tony Ramey and is featured on Mark's new CD "Pickin' Blackberries".  The song is a look back to the days when the view of Christmas was laying under the Christmas Tree among the presents and looking up through the branches at a world full of wonder and dreams.

When Christmas Trees Were Tall

Elliott/Ramey

 I never will forget the first time that I saw
That big red suit and long white beard in the middle of the mall I sat up on his lap and handed him my list While mama took a Polaroid
To put up on the fridge 

            When Christmas trees were tall and we were little kids We’d lie beneath the branches dreaming of the gifts We’d hear reindeer on the rooftops and Santa’s footsteps fall
It was easy to believe in things
When Christmas trees were tall

 There was really peace on earth on that silent night All around the world one star was shining bright The promise of tomorrow
Was there in every heart
As warm as that fireplace
That flickered in the dark

repeat chorus

The View From The Top of the Hill
from the American Road CD
"That’s the view from the top of this hill 
           Takes my breath, makes my heart stand still
   Lying on a blanket and starring off into space
I like to think of everything I’ve lost
What I’ve gained and at what cost
      Where I can see over my troubles and my spills
From the top of this hill"

GRIZZLY
1997-2007

Goodbye old boy!

OLD DOGS
Old dogs they roam
You call for them one morning
And they’re up and gone
Days are lonely and nights are long
Wondering where they are
And what went wrong
But baby there’s one thing
That you can count on
Old dogs like me come home
