Artist/Band: Fromholz Steve Tabs
Song: Dear Darcy Tab
This is a ballad by Steve Fromholz, one of the finest singer/songwriters to
come out of Austin,Texas. It is about his daughter and was written in the
early 70's. It is not available on CD's. I hope everyone enjoys it as much as
I do.
DEAR DARCY

With all the love a letter's line can bring.
