Story behind the song
A week before I was to film my segment of "Colorado Juke Box Live" my partner informed me he quit...........Whatcha Gonna Do? This song has become an audience favorite (we like it to), and I have decided to put up a page just for it on soundclick www.soundclick.com/whatchagonna do) and will be putting the varied live renditions up I have recorded over the last few years
Lyrics
Whatcha Gonna Do by Gary W. Wickizer ©2001 As I walk along this old dirt road, I must be doing something right I’m getting old. But you know, I don’t really mind I got one more day in time. Sometimes things is right, sometimes they’re wrong Some of your days are short some are long. Way things turn out could be bad or good, You may holler out, “That didn’t work the way that it should” Whatcha Gonna Do, Whatcha gonna do. All you can do is what you can. Dig the dirt and play in the sand. Fly through the air, walk upon the land. Take your turn walk like a man. Keep your eyes wide open, your hands upon the wheel, Life’s a card game and it’s your deal. Some folks like to scream and fight, I know everything’s gonna be all right….. Whatcha gonna do, whatcha gonna do Never know when the end is in sight, Could be the middle of the day or a cold dark night. You may get to finish what you start to do, Eat your lunch or tie your shoe. Go for water find your well run dry, Time to stop walking and learn to fly… Whatcha gonna do, whatcha gonna do, whatcha gonna do

LOVE this song! It has a really nice vibe, makes me wanna go out on the dark patio with a cold beverage, crank this up and chill out :);) Love your style, nice voice, great message and lyrics in this tune as well, all speakin the truth. I can hear the JJ Cale style goin on as well....and that is a great thing. 5 star production! Thanks for sharing your talent here for us to enjoy! ~strummergurl~
