Listeners, here is a preview of Smitty West's (we also know him as Scott Smith) upcoming CD "Your World."  This track is a song he wrote for Ojai, "It Ain't Mine."

"I really love living in Ojai, where the people are not in charge. The famous 'pink moment' at sunset. The essence of sagebrush, or 'coyote cologne.' The dismissive look on the coyote’s face when you cross his path, 'What choo you lookin’ at, dude?'"

"It Ain’t Mine" Lyrics:
From the upcoming CD “Your World”

Coyote, loping through the night.
I’m thinking, “Man, you’ve got it right!”
‘Cause when the light goes pink on the mountain range.
And we’ve just had our short exchange.
I start feeling a little strange.
Because it’s your world, it ain’t mine…
.
The clean air, floats like sweet perfume.
Behind me, the smell of the baby boom.
But when the lilac and the sage combine
And drift around this place divine,
I nod and say to old cloud nine,
“It’s your world, it ain’t mine…”
.
Hey Sunshine, warming up my day.
You’re burning, but I still feel okay.
But when the night air drops down a few degrees
And the moon shines blue through the silent trees.
The nighttime gives no guarantees, because
It’s your world, it ain’t mine…
