Troy Hardin has been playing throughout the Oklahoma City area since 1996. With his acoustic guitar and harmonica, Troy sings and performs the "songs that I have sang along to on the radio my whole life".

Song Lyrics from the original hit CD-

"Burning Bush"

Before I say I love you

Met her on the way to school today she was walking all alone so I turned and I smiled and I looked her way I said this could be the chance we wanted this could be our one big break we never knew what love could do but it’s a chance we have to take

How many times must I say I’m lonely baby ooh-ooh before you realize before you call on me

What are the chances of a good thing growing stronger day by day ooh-ooh before the bottom drops but we’ll just wait and see

Before I say I love you

It’s been going on for quite awhile we don’t know which way to turn

so I stop and I listen and I look her way and she says this could be the chance we wanted this could be our one big break we never knew what love could do but it’s a chance

we have to take

How many times must I say I’m lonely baby ooh-ooh before you realize before you call on me before I say I love you before I say I love you before I say I love you

 

 

Cruel Destiny

Well I’m not to hip on an unwinnable war and I don’t see a need for us to settle the score every time you get something you just want more yea you always ask for more and you’re all caught up in some emotional trap and you can’t steer clear of this political crap you just ask your daddy to beat your rap but he gives you something more

 

She cries she cries "there’s no pain like the pain that I feel inside" when you find your relocation you can take the train for free blame it on cruel destiny

 

I can’t think of a proper more appropriate fate than to shelter what we love and to kill what we hate the only problem is we find we’re a bit too late when the sun goes down alone the problems of the people you try to mask while support from your brother is too much to ask while your men women children are called to task as the sun goes down alone

 

She cries she cries…

 

Well the future’s holding yea it’s holding fast while the present ask’s you to forget the past what is called first now will someday be last but there’s always something more well I’m not too hip on an unwinnable war and I don’t see the need for us to settle the score every time you get something you just want more yea you always ask for more

Well I never heard the thunder and I never felt the rain I never saw the lightening strike and I never felt the pain

 

Little Hands

Casting shadows in a strange light Tuesday’s colors dancing all around you

it looks to be another strange night pray tomorrow finds you facing straight ahead

 

Just a little more time just a little more time it’s gonna take a little more time

 

Second thoughts of your existence measured stares give way to frequent glances

stand your ground but keep your distance change will come about when time and thought collide

 

Just a little more time…

 

Pressured you advance unguarded leaving all the doors behind you open

It stands to reason you’re defenseless you’d better run before the wolves get wind of you

 

Just a little more time…

 

I never claimed to be a wise man I never said I was your blonde messiah

little hands with fists of thunder don’t you know I’d die a thousand deaths for you

 

Just a little more time…
