Have a good day! It doesn't remind me of Paul Williams, but then, I probably haven't thought about him in thirty years. |

I'm enjoying the lyrics of this song very much. The rhythm of the lyrics is catchy. The tune's pretty good, too. I'm saying thing is a solid "8". And enough for me to go find his album and have a looky-look. (soundy-sound?)

I don't know why but I've had the line "Time ain't money when all ya got is time" stuck in my head for days. And Bill hasn't even played this in weeks.

Vocally it sounds a lot like Mark Knopfler. I like it.

Reminds me of Dan Hicks and the Hot Licks. Nice sound.

Is this John Prine's little brother? Like the ballad style.

Speaking of bums... What was that "Beat" Takeshi movie where he plays a bum (of sorts)?  I IMBD'ed it, but nothing there rang a bell. |

Marginally better than his Who Stunk It.
Not by much though.

Great story and a delightful song. |
