about

A rock n'roll romp, full of Keith Richards like guitar riffs and Jerry Lee Lewis style piano; a cheeky Cockney vocal tops it all off and the lyrics are loosely based on Keith Richards remarkable ability to survive into his 70's.

lyrics

I’m Alive. It’s a Miracle!

© 2017 Grahame Waghorn


I used to feel worse than death,
Now I’ve got my second breath,
I’m Alive. It’s a Miracle!

All my friends say “That’s where you ought to be”
Every time we go past the mortuary!
I’m Alive. It’s a Miracle!

I’m alive, I’m alive, I’m alive.
My hearts beating. It’s a Miracle!


I told my doctor “You’ve got to be joking”
When he told me to quit chain-smoking!
I’m Alive. It’s a Miracle!

Exercise?! Don’t make me laugh,
I keep fit running me bath!
I’m Alive. It’s a Miracle!

I’m alive. I’m alive. I’m alive.
I’m still breathing. It’s a Miracle!

Split my head on a coconut tree.
Lived to tell the tale.
Been blind drunk for so many years
I’ve learnt to read braille!

I drink a bottled of Jack, but still don’t feel tickled,
You can’t embalm me, ‘cos I’m already pickled!
I’m Alive. It’s a Miracle!

Had a nice invite to the Pearly Gates,
But I told St Peter “You can bloody well wait”!
I’m Alive. It’s a Miracle!

I’m alive. I’m alive. I’m alive.
I’m still breathing. It’s a Miracle!

M, I, R, Y, K, A, L.
It’s a miracle!

Grahame Waghorn Santa Barbara, California

I write and record alt pop/rock songs on my bass, guitars, keyboards and sax.

Some are dreamy, some rock and some reflect my wry sense of humor.

All my songs are FREE! I’ll be happy if you listen to them and tell your friends about them. I’ll be overjoyed if you try to play them or sing along!

I've also released an album with an old friend - "Into the Blue" by Waghorn & Taylor ... more
