Hey folks, did you ever come up with your own song for harmonica or a song that sounds good on harmonica? If you did, post it here. I'm going to start with a song written by our own Marcy! It's called The Thimbleweed Waltz. I don't play it quite like she does and I hope she don't mind me posting it here.

The older I get the more I know how little I knew when I knew it all.

I do love the way you play that song!!! Now what was that one you wrote about a hound dog? Pete, I'm already hooked by the title. Can't wait to hear it...

That's when you see Himalayan on the side of the rode.

Pete, I’d like to hear the tune of that one and the lyrics of Sarge’s possum song.
Found plenty of Possum on a gum stump on youtube but no vocals. Found the sheet music of it on youtube, copied it but will take time to play it. Some othe words found.
Possum up a gum stump
Coonie in the holler
Yeller gal at our house
Fat as she can Waller.

Here I'm doing it at that Shawnee Squirrel Hunt in 2012. It's called The Hot Shot Harmonica Man.
