'Old Black Dawning'

Fun song.  Pick up your acoustic and give it a go.

Incidentally, this song is supposed to be about
Biosphere II.

I'm always happy to
Go down to old Tucson
After you had your fun
It's time to move on
I've got a favorite story
About the Tower of Babel
Some say it's true
And some say it's a fable

Old Black Dawning is coming on
Old Black Dawning is coming on
Old Black Dawning
Old Black Dawning
