Biografía:
Ernie Payne is an African American musician from Louisiana's Acadia Parish. His family was large and everyone learnt early to pitch in and help with chores and household duties. Their strict, religious, hard working ethic thought 'music' essential to a quality life, but hardly something to pursue as a way to earn a living.
Over the years Ernie has been employed as a songwriter for various publishers, front man for numerous musical entities, co front man, civil servant, husband (one wife), father (of two).

Ernie Payne - Coercion Street
-Riff in D played throughout-
[verse 1]
D
I was born of coercion street
D
Rocks and bottles and fists and feet
D
I ruled a path I daily climbed
D
all uphill all of the time
[verse 2]
D
My folks were poor folks who did all they could
D
to stand on that righteous rock where moses stood
[chorus 1]
Am Em
I memorised every word
G D/F# Em D
But noise is all I think I heard
[verse 3]
D
A bar stool, a church pew, a handshake a clenched fist
D
I made my choices aware of the risk
D
Street muscle, blues shuffle, honed in two skills
D
Came in real handy, climbing that hill
[chorus 2]
Am Em
And each step shortened that climb
Am Em
Till I found a voice that was mine
Am Em
Each man is shaped his deeds
G D/F# Em D
I survived Coercion street
[outro]
D
I was born on Coercion street
-I'll add a proper tab for the riff in D played through soon...-
