lyrics

I’m gonna take Avalon
To Landers Brew
Find me a friend & companion
For a drink or 2
Among the blind & the lame
The lost & the found
& we’re all the same when the lights go down

Build me a cabin
When it starts to rain
Wait for the flood
On the desert plain
Stake your claim
But you’re nowhere bound
& we’re all the same when the lights go down

Papa did you really try hard enough
Mama did you hold on to your dream when the ride got rough
Did you try hard enough

Wash the blood away
From your fingernails
Get rid of the gun
On Sunflower Trail
No one to blame
But the black-eyed hound
& we’re all the same when the lights go down

"There’s substance, originality, & cleverness at work here. I admire how these people take something that already exists traditionally & reinterpret it with their own ingredients to create something truly effective that resonates. This record is straight whiskey. Tom Waits would be proud."—AMERICANA HIGHWAYS ... more
