Description:
Dadai, my ukulele and I teamed up again, this time for the American classic "Home on the Range". It took a little longer for us to get this out but it was done the same time as other ukulele folk songs. It includes the rarely sung second verse, just in case you ever wondered if there was a second verse. I hope you enjoy it!

Lyrics:
Oh give me a home
where the buffalo roam.
Where the deer and the antelope play.
Where seldom is heard
a discouraging word
And the skies are not cloudy all day.

Home, home on the range!
Where the deer and the antelope play
Where seldom is heard
A discouraging word,
And the skies are not cloudy all day

How often at night
When the heavens are bright,
By the light of the shimmering stars,
I've stood there amazed and
Thought as I gazed
That their glory exceeds that of ours

Home, home on the range!
Where the deer and the antelope play
Where seldom is heard
A discouraging word,
And the skies are not cloudy all day


Hardware:
my $20 ukulele, a Shure SM58 and whatever Jack used.

I think Jack sounds like Leon Redbone on this one! Nice rich deep tones.
And Joanne sounds like the perfect school teacher, talkin and singin with such great and distinguished diction. All prime & proper and such!

You mean there' a second verse? &mdash 04/24/08 - 06:12:29 PM
I never knew! Do you realize that what you've done here is basically what Mozart did to his music. He brought every in every instrument to convey his sublime expression. You have done this too. This song should be heard beside a campfire. You and Jack have nailed it. And I feel like sticking a weinie on a stick over that campfire, (as weird as that might sound). This brought a warm and personal feeling, and I thank you. Terry
