glueman Rockin' and mellow at the same time. If this wouldn't be background music at your bar, I wouldn't drink there. Favorite track: Chicago.

Andrew Schlieter I know the guys in the band fairly well. They've really developed as a band since I saw them live the first time at their album release show. Proud to call myself a fan of their music and look forward to new stuff from these guys very soon.

They Say 03:10
Say it ain't easy I say, it just must be, being fast and free But will the dust settle now, from the horse you rode, when you've got your gold And you can't stop it now As she barrels down Well that horse you're ridin' you ride it for too long They say that feeling you got is coming on too strong But this man's got no rust Too soft, too smooth to trust, well he'll be covered like growing moss As the sun goes down, the sun goes down you must Chase it, or your saddle turn to dust And you can't stop it now As she barrels down Well that horse you're ridin' you ride it for too long They say that feeling you got is coming on too strong
2.
Girl is on my mind, but she don't seem to care And my lungs are dry, breathing in this desert air She's got crooked teeth but, that ain't why she don't smile I must have lost my head, chasing after this stubborn child Well you know she spins those words, like I ain't never heard Her mind is jaded, like a bartender girl Ten cents would see her smile but, you know it ain't worth a thing Ten cents would see her smile but, I would rather hear her sing
3.
No Touch 03:26
She smiles, as she throws another heart outside her window to the ground And she laughs, as she steps outside her door and closes up without a sound But girl you've given me too much Now I've got nothing when I've got no touch Darling now you've got to stay I can't light it up another way As that sun creeps out your door You wanna stay so make it easy When did we become too cool Not a real feeling stays What's this color, what's this game? It doesn't matter so much now as long as you tell me your name But girl I've given you too much Now you've got nothing when you've got no touch Darling now you've got to stay You can't light it up another way As that sun creeps out your door Don't let him stay, don't let him stay
4.
Chicago 02:48
When the moon is out And it comes to blood Another crime don't matter In the neighborhood Oh chicago, won't you let me make it up to my door And this kid, he ain't got no soul You had a sweeter side, but that had to go And the city got you evil now Well he can shoot a gun But his mother don't like where he aim it And in the end it just don't matter He'll be down so deep he's gonna need a ladder Oh Chicago, gonna let me make it up to my door And this kid, he ain't got no soul Oh you had a sweeter side, but that had to go And the city got you evil now

Twinberry 03:51
People say, that you're obscene But I must be blind to them, cus I don't see I see you runnin' down, something worse I see you runnin' down, someday you're just gonna burst If they say, that you're not clean You better hear them if you, wanna see nineteen I see you runnin' down, something worse I see you runnin' down, someday you're just gonna burst I hear you live like death's on crawl Prepare your bones for one last fall Sing me to the moon and I'll be, doin' fine Sing me to the moon and I'll be, doin' fine You make it seem, like you still got some speed But you just stumble and you fall on your downbeat I see you runnin' down, something worse I see you runnin' down, someday you're just gonna burst I hear you live like death's on crawl Prepare your bones for one last fall Sing me to the moon and I'll be, doin' fine Sing me to the moon and I'll be, doin' fine

Salty Seas 04:03
Salty seas is what you are to me, lying through your teeth, but you don't have a choice Don't talk with your mouth open you might start a fire Said the girl with the golden voice When you fell you tripped upon her skirt Digging things that'd be better under dirt In the light your mother said you better go outside Cus there's a fire burning high, and it burns a mile wide Did you light this flame, cus I don't have noone to blame, but those seas Your feet are wet, I know you're bending back, but mercy you're alright Mercy you're alright When you fell you tripped upon the skirt Digging things that'd be better under dirt And in the light your mother said you better stay outside, come on Cus there's a fire burning hot, and it burns a mile wide, my dear
7.
High Tonight 04:26
(Because the moon, you said, was high tonight) We walked, and then we ran you could tell how fast By the holes in the soles of our shoes You got sick aboard your own ship, don't let the flood fill your eyes Cus you're gonna feel alright You say I'm weak so say no lies Because the moon, you said, was high tonight Because the moon, you said, was high tonight Yes it's high but so are you, on other folks that you say you knew With all these faces how d'you tell Which ones rust and which ones ring your bells If you're gonna sneak then do it right Because the moon, you said, was high tonight Because the moon, you said, was high tonight If you're gonna sneak then do it right Because the moon, you said, was high tonight Because the moon, you said, was high tonight Because the moon, you said, was high tonight Because the moon, you said, was high tonight
8.
Get on Out 04:47
We got the land but we don't have the man who knows, how to shape it This one slashes and burns, do we know, do we know, how to tame him And do we have enough sunset, before the night And do we have enough sunset to use as light, to keep your heart alive Get on up, get on out Get on up, get on out Morning sees you, but don't look back, they only wanna see your head And mountain mansions you passed, won't hide you now, you better run fast Get on up, get on out Get on up, get on out He might run but he'll be back And he'll bring his black saddles back And he might let some See the end of a gun If they don't want us to run, we will walk The same as we did when they shut us out, and told us to stop And will we have enough sunset, before the night And will we have enough sunset to use as light, to change your mind Get on up, get on out Get on up, get on out Where there was one there now is three And this is too much company And they might let some See the end of a gun Well they ran but they came back And they brought their black saddles back Yeah and they might let some See the end of a gun
9.
100 Bones 02:24
100 bones, how many graves we gotta dig 100 bones in the hand it's, not enough to keep it hid That might buy you a shovel, but you can't bury evilness 100 years, is that what you wanna do? Cus in them jailhouse walls, they ain't gon' be nice to you And now you're sweatin' from your ears, as it drips on your Sunday shoes Your momma said you better, cross your T's not cross your eyes And if you're running races, you better check that your shoes are tied But you don't need to earn your money, when you're busy taking bribes
10.
Seasick country drinks you up And we've been drifting, a little too much Feeding bad thoughts to the brain But she's gonna starve anyway You knew what time it took to say goodbye; you only had enough time to leave Darling you've chased enough moonlight Can't you see it in your eyes The way you run through the streets at night Makes a man afraid of what he'll find Well I see no signs of life You must've lost your appetite My sweet lord, I've all but failed And the pride has all but sailed You knew what time it took to say goodbye; you only had enough time to leave And we all ain't gotta be so fast Darling you've chased enough moonlight Can't you see it in your eyes The way you run through the streets at night Makes a man afraid of what he'll find
11.
Kids roll down the streets, with their burgundy cars and blacked out windows down But they don't know, what's going on, what's going on downtown Down there people talk, but he don't know that keeps his engine hot While he pumps his gas, all alone in a blacktop parking lot What do you got to say to them, what do you got to say right now And your heart, would knock them down He don't know the union, he don't, he don't know the shop All he knows is money man, and that's where he got shot Now the sun says sweat, and that's all he knows how to do Work the finger 'till the bone shines through What do you got to say to them, what do you got to say right now And your heart, would knock them down
12.
There's something in the way you walk that makes me wanna hear the way you speak But there's gonna be something, in the way you sing Then you said, there is enough poison in the well And I do believe we will be dead, before the sun will set I had a pistol, I had a bullet now, she's gone I had a pistol, I had a bullet now, so long I tried to suck that, snake venom dry But you know that darker side was just, too well disguised You see that storm approaching from your windowsill And you try to hide, but it had come to kill I had a pistol, I had a bullet now, she's gone I had a pistol, I had a bullet now, so long
