Recorded next to the river in the Great Smokey Mountains National Forest, April 2nd, 2009. This song came to me after my grandmother passed away, March 1998. I first sang it at her funeral. This song is on the drum, I ask it be used in a respectful way. Im only posting this for a short time for a few people to see then I will make it private.

  • I didn't put any words in this song I desired that it be placed on the drum so it could be used without being missunderstood. This melody came to me a few days after my grandmother passed away, I sang it at her funeral, very difficult. I felt great loss and sadness when I made the song and I feel the same when I sing it now.
