    Winner of the Women of mp3 weekly song contest and # 1 on the general blues charts, it remains in the top 40 over a year later. This song was inspired by the devastation of the year 2000 wildfires. SEVEN MILLION ACRES BURNED! Debut recording for Chad Lane, teen blues guitar wizard. He rolled over in bed last night and almost broke a string! A UNIQUE tune in that it is blues with an environmental message. So please remember...KEEP YOUR UGLY BUTT IN THE CAR; USE THE ASHTRAY!! "The devil stands pointing to the room down below. If you like to start fires, he's got a HOT deal for you!"

    Story Behind the Song
    After witnessing a family on Simpson Road in Guthrie Oklahoma standing over what used to be their home
    I felt compelled to write this. I wrote the lyrics at 4 A.M. in a sleepy daze after nodding on the couch for 1/2 an hour. The following night we played it at the Woodcrest Fire Department Fundraiser and it rained for the first time in months!!

    Lyrics
    The day started out like any other day

    Sky still blue

    And it seemed like it never would rain

    Then the sky turned dark

    And the water began to fall

    Oh how I wish

    It had been a raincloud that I saw


    Chorus:

    But now I ain't got no home

    In this world no more

    All that I had, Lord it's gone

    I ain't got no home in this world no more

    Just cuz some fool

    Threw his cigarette out on my lawn



    Well they've got a place for pyros like you

    The fire's already burnin' and all your

    friends are there too

    The devil stands pointing

    to the room down below

    If you like to start fires

    He's got a hot deal for you
