The Story:
My hopeful attempt at writing an southern epic. Taking inspiration from Dylan and Cash, this is by far the largest ensemble of instruments I've ever tracked for a single song. Did I mention it also features my 8 year old daughter on Shaker? Proud Papa...
lyrics
I'm gonna tell you a story
I'm gonna tell you how it goes
No you don't ever have to worry
Cuz I'll be done before I go
Well she was oh so lonely
Head buried in a magazine
Like a lone tombstone
Standing out there in the evergreen
Yes I tried to console her
Even though the bayou bids
Held a crucifix in her right hand
Real tight in a fist
She gotta, gotta take it easy now
Before she go, go
