Leo Kottke

Leo Kottke (born September 11, 1945, Athens, Georgia, U.S.) is an acoustic guitarist. He is known for a fingerpicking style that draws on influences from blues, jazz, and folk music, and for syncopated, polyphonic melodies. Kottke overcame a series of personal obstacles, including partial loss of hearing and a nearly career-ending bout with tendon damage in his right hand to emerge as a widely-recognized master of his instrument. Leo currently resides in the Minneapolis area with his family. more »

 Watch: New Singing Lesson Videos Can Make Anyone A Great Singer

Problems in a little town, disrupting of the rain
Diesel trains and firemen collecting in the shade
The rain's still a long way off, the snakes have got it made

But everyone's got off today
Everyone's got off today

One by one the windows shutting down with frowns
The wind comes up and funny papers rattle through the town
The rain is coming closer, the trees are bending town

But everyone's got off today
Everyone's got off today

Underneath the glass on the dresser drawer
Ticket stubs and photographs, never any more
And in the puddles on the lawns a tiny jockey stands

But everyone's got off today
Everyone's got off today
Everyone's got off today
