Liner Notes

This is the new version of Two Chords and a Uke which I wrote for the 2 Chords skirmish. I drummed on the body of my uke during the bridge. I'd like to add more percussion, but need to get this up today. There are a lot of wolves in Minnesota right now. #uke #singersongwriter #minnesotastrong

Lyrics

The wolves are howling at the door Don’t let them in The wolves are howling at the door Don’t let them in Stoke the fire, bar the gate Don’t let them in Pack baying louder Don’t let them in

Protect your own Help your friends Turn to the light When the siege ends

Hunting in packs by the light of day Don’t let them in Fangs masked, armed to the teeth Don’t let them in Stoke the fire, bar the gate Don’t let them in Pack baying louder Don’t let them in

What a great protest song! I'd love to hear you sing this at a No Kings rally! Superb vocals and strumming, and a vital message.

✊ Don't let them in, indeed. I love how this works powerfully as a political statement, but doesn't need the introduction to have its power. The repetition of "don't let them in" is a strong hook. Great write!
