lyrics

he married my ex girlfriend, I used to see him playing at the bar
voice all dirty raspy fingers sliding oer that old dobro guitar
used to go and listen, watch him as he drove the girls wild
damn that boy could sing a song, damn that boy could sing a song with style

buddy from the corner he was always bumming cigarettes and bread
weathered leather boots weathered leather hat upon his head
buddy sure could drink the whiskey buddy sure could play that ol harpoon
cowboy and an Indian and every little bit of him the blues

sometimes when I get to singing sometimes I get singing old time tunes
sometimes when I get to drinking sometimes I get drinking on my own
and sometimes when its cold outside and when the winters blowing at the door
sometimes I get lonely for the clapping and the stamping, beating of the feet upon the dusty wooden floor

sitting round the fire, our friends are making out and drinking beer
someone gets to singing, its getting late, getting cold out here
girl picks up the melody and sings about a girl gone too far
sings about the rage and all the days and ways of making love and war

this here song aint nothing but a way to pass the time til you get home
baby play your fiddle baby sing a song and rock me til I’m warm
baby let’s go dancin, let’s go drinkin’, let’s go make the late night news
stampin up my cowboy boots, trampin’ up your fancy leather shoes
baby girl let’s hit the town we’ll put our money down and play to lose

about

Lone Crow Jubilee Vancouver, British Columbia

Lone Crow Jubilee is a 7-piece band in Vancouver, Canada, playing roots and country music, riffing on old songs and new, melodies that are both original and traditional. Sometimes it's straight-up country; sometimes it's old school folk; sometimes it's rootsy rock'n'roll.
This ain't your mom's folk music, but it might just be your old drunk grand-daddy's.
