lyrics
I go down in firelight
No, no, no
Shitty cops on my doorstep
What troubles me is back again
The saddest girl I ever met
Looking through Chicago’s gems
And it’s the weight of the world
Spreading awfully awful ideas
And it’s the way that I walk
They got deer, they got booze, they got bridges
And it’s the money I spend
And I don’t feel like talking about it
And it’s the look in your eyes
Girl, I want to see you wearing dresses
I go down in a firefight
No, no, no
Oh my lord, you got me there
Big brown eyes and dark brown hair
Oh, Amanda girl where were you then?
Off in Spain with streets of sand
And it’s the way that I walk
Spreading awfully awful ideas
And it’s the weight of the world
They got deer, they got cars, they got airplanes
And it’s the money I spend
And god damn, I don’t want to talk about that
And it’s the look in your eyes
Girl, I want to see you wearing dresses
No, no, no
Shitty cops on my doorstep
What troubles me is back again
The saddest girl I ever met
Looking through Chicago’s gems
And it’s the weight of the world
Spreading awfully awful ideas
And it’s the way that I walk
They got deer, they got booze, they got bridges
And it’s the money I spend
And I don’t feel like talking about it
And it’s the look in your eyes
Girl, I want to see you wearing dresses
I go down in a firefight
No, no, no
Oh my lord, you got me there
Big brown eyes and dark brown hair
Oh, Amanda girl where were you then?
Off in Spain with streets of sand
And it’s the way that I walk
Spreading awfully awful ideas
And it’s the weight of the world
They got deer, they got cars, they got airplanes
And it’s the money I spend
And god damn, I don’t want to talk about that
And it’s the look in your eyes
Girl, I want to see you wearing dresses

The Ferdy Mayne recommends:
-
Raging in the Dark
by J.R. CarrollSome stripped down, folk country jams. I love J.R.'s vocals, super rough edges, gives me Childer's vibes big time. Really hoping he drops some more full band stuff like "Don't Lose Your Faith".
go to album -
"Nightmare Town" acoustic came up on streaming and I literally could not stop listening to it. Reminds me of some lost 70's-80's country leaning songwriters. The shotgun line is insanely cathartic.

We'll Become the Flowers
by Eliza EdensI'm a sucker for anything having a Big Thief vibe. Eliza has such a great voice and "I Needed You" is so well mixed and produced I can't help but wish I could write something like this.
