Yard Sale Junkie © words and music by C. Stewart ( June 2, 2018 )
I'm a yard sale junkie Bought an old tin can Bought it from a hippie Named "Get High Dan "
Slammed on the brakes When I saw his sign Four seconds later Dan's junk was mine
I'm a yard sale junkie I can't say no Rain or shine I'm ready to go
A yard sale junkie That's all I know I'd buy a dogs turd If the price was low
I'm a yard sale junkie Drive a beat up truck I bought the handle From a broken cup
A yard sale junkie I'm in love with junk I got an 8 x 10 Of Donald Duck
I'm a yard sale junkie I can't say no Rain or shine I'm ready to go
A yard sale junkie That's all I know I'd buy a dogs turd If the price was low

Amazingly good.
Art music at its best.
This should be Youtube viral stuff.
Excellent guitar sound, btw. Very well played. What is that?
(no surprise that you are a yard sale junkie...)

I'm with floyd 100%. It's strange and eerie and immediately compelling.A catchy groove that's reminiscent of Ry Cooder and New Orleans street processions. I love the dissonant chord pattern that shows up at the end of verses. There are TV shows focused on buying and selling collectibles and de-cluttering houses etc. A courageous director could really stand out by using your song as a show theme.

Calvin. I have a dog turd that I'm willing to let go for $4.99.
Love this. It's unique and just draws you in with a big smile on your face.

A yard sale junkie I'm in love with junk I got an 8 x 10 Of Donald Duck
That's a serious junkie!
Humorous? Of course. But beyond that is a "serious" well done production and delivered with a flair.
i've mentioned it before but I would think some of the music placement libraries would love a song like this!
Cool!

Now where did I put that old dog turd? I'll have to rummage around here ... ahh! There it is.

Oh, Calvin,
You really have a way with words—some killer lines in this one. Not sure where you come up with this stuff, but keep them coming. Always worth the listen!
Regards,
Deej

You have a good one here!
I still hit a sale or two in Nashville--old guitars, amps and lots of conversation--seems like everyone is an ex-songwriter!
