from Solitary Company, released March 19, 2021
Lay with me by the levee
On a blanket under the pines
I know your dreams
& you know mine

Lay with me by the levee
We’ll be watching the boats go by
& the wandering shadows
Of the clouds in the sky

We’re gonna gamble
We’re gonna lay it all on 11 & 9
We’re gonna lose our money for love
& it’s gonna be fine
Spending the rest on a meal
& a bottle of wine
Keeping the devil in limbo
Beyond the waterline

You make me a better man

Lay with me by the levee
Until the end of day
Everything changes
Please don’t go away

This record is straight whiskey. Tom Waits would be proud."—AMERICANA HIGHWAYS ... more
