I've loved the music of Peter Paul and Mary ever since I heard them. So here's my rendition. The song was originally written by Gordon Lightfoot.
I made a percussion MIDI track to accompany the song and also added a bassline (played with my guitar).

Enjoy!

In the Early Morning Rain

In the early mornin' rain,
with a dollar in my hand,
And an achin' in my heart,
and my pocket's full of sand.
I'm a long way from home,
and I miss my loved one so,
In the early mornin' rain,
with no place to go.

Out on runway number nine,
big 7 o 7 set to go.
But I'm out here on the grass,
where the pavement never grows.
Well the liquor tasted good,
and the women all were fast.
There she goes my friend,
she's rollin' down at last.

Hear the mighty engines roar,
see the silver wing on high.
She's away and westward bound,
far above the clouds she flies.
Where the mornin' rain don't fall,
and the sun always shines.
She'll be flyin' o'er my home,
in about three hours time.

This old airport's got me down,
it's no earthly good to me.
Cause I'm stuck here on the ground,
cold and drunk as I might be.
Can't jump a jet plane,
like I can a freight train.
So I'd best be on my way,
in the early mornin' rain.
So I'd best be on my way,
in the early mornin' rain.

    missed traveling :(

  • @KrisShred

    No. I am lonely and miserable and sad - and i can't get horny with anyone because I don't share love with no one.

    But i did give good trauma to the guy who hurt me from hurting girls! did that in front of all his best yt female friends! that was FUN!!

    how have you been? do you have someone you can make fuck with love with? new songs? how's studies? probably you have a degree

    maybe you are a father? old f?

    i missed you (you, the real Kris, not the horrible guy that hurt me)
