	Sometimes getting an old dog to do new tricks is like beating a dead horse. Give it up it ain't gonna' work.

	Story Behind the Song This song was a nice little ballad until Jeff got done with it. Jeff's arrangement and direction for the song turned it into a real rocker and made it one of our favorite songs on the album. As usual I laid down the main vocal line and acoustic guitar first. Jeff dubbed the bass and that great electric guitar hook at the begining of the song. I came back a couple of days later to put in the harmony vocal. When he fired it up I thought he put the wrong track in. At first I didn't recognize the song. What a transformation! Lyrics OLD DOGS There's all these demons I've got to exercise But after all these years whats the point You know what they say about old dogs and new tricks I feel bad though for all those who had such high expectations for me Old dogs, new tricks, and me Sorry that I'm not the one you thought that I would be Who knows what the future brings, who really cares All I know is that right now this is the place I want to be I love you is only words, and you've heard them many times From me, old dogs Life is hard you're supposed to learn with age Some people never change What you see is always what you get with me Well I've always been an open book for all to see I'm here right now and I'm in it for the long haul Old dogs, new tricks and me
