under the sun:
By Dan Zanes; Sister Barbara Music ASCAP

Sonia sings background vocals and hits the triangle. Rob also sings backgrounds and plays percussion and organ bass pedals. Wingding plays the spoons. DZ sings and plays 12 string guitar and harmonica.

After recording ¡Nueva York! almost completely in Spanish it was pretty wild to write and sing in English again. I was thinking of the sound of 1908 and the possibilities of 2008.

song sample:

lyrics:

When all God's children gather under the sun
When all God's children gather under the sun
Look out of the window see a new day has begun
When all God's children gather under the sun

When everybody's splashing out in the rain...
The storm clouds will be laughing and we're going to do the same
When everybody's splashing out in the rain

So get your brush and colors and paint it now...
Maybe you can't see it but just make it anyhow
Get your brush and colors and paint it now

When all God's children gather won't it be fine...
You show me your dances and I'll do a couple of mine
When all God's children gather won't it be fine

When all God's children sing out won't it be fine
Dancing all together won't it be fine
When all God's children gather won't it be fine
