I've got holes in my pockets where my dreams used to be
I've got holes in my shoes where my soles used to be
I've got holes in my head where my lover used to speak
I've got holes
I've got holes
I've got holes
Like nobody knows
I've got holes in my stories that im tellin to you
I've got holes in my friendships from the travelin i do
I've got holes in my brain cuz thats what drugs do
Ive got holes
I've got holes
I've got holes
Like nobody knows
I've got holes in my mattress from cigarette burns
I've got holes in my jackets from cigarette burns
I've got holes in my future from cigarette burns
I've got holes
I've got holes
I've got holes
Like nobody knows
I've got holes in my pockets where my dreams used to be
I've got holes in my shoes where my soles used to be
I've got holes in my head where my lover used to speak
I've got holes
I've got holes
I've got holes
Like nobody knows

Down by the river i will weep
Down in the cabin i will weep
For the rest of my life i will weep
Trouble in the morning
Trouble in my sleep
Trouble in the evening
Trouble in my Dreams
For the rest of my life i will weep
Well tomorrow is a new day, so they say
Well i cant wait
I'll wake up Early
I've got the whole day, Just to weep
For the rest of my life i will weep
Down by the waters i will weep

I am just a song machine
put a quarter in me maybe you can watch me dance and sing
there aint much esle that i know how to do
i can open up a beer and i can probably drink it to
put me at a job and i'll be quite confused
i'll crack a few jokes and i'll be fired in month or two
and if they don't fire me its likely ill quit
theres a limited amount of time
i can do someone elses shit
I am just a ramblin fool
Aint got much use in society
I aint got no special tools
unless you count, sittn around feelin sorry for yourself
or writing love songs about somebody else
or staying up late for no reason at all
cept the moon is bright and she's making her call
I am just somebody else's tool
I'd like to think im free but i know thats not true
so i'll stay away just as long as i can
what the hell am i supposed to do i am only a man
I am just a song machine
put a quarter in me maybe you can watch me dance and sing
I am just a song machine
put a quarter in me maybe you can watch me dance and sing
You can watch me dance and sing

I hope your livin life doin what you love to do
Cuz there's no second chances not for me and not for you
And boy you are mistaken if you think that your immune
And she had no time to scream oh no oh no
And she had no time to think maybe coulda shoulda woulda
Fate just grabbed her by the throat
Slit it open with no remorse
could have been anyone
could be you someday soon
Little slip twist of fate call it what you'd like
Death is coming for you and she's got no sense of time
First your on your way to work then in the afterlife
And she had no time to scream oh no oh no
And she had no time to think maybe coulda shoulda woulda
Fate just grabbed her by the throat
Slit it open with no remorse
could have been anyone
could be you someday soon
Now she was just a girl doing what we all do
Working at her shitty job just to pay her dues
But this day turned out to be different from the rest
Cuz when she turned the mixer on it ripped her head right off her neck
And she had no time to scream oh no oh no
And she had no time to think maybe coulda shoulda woulda
Fate just grabbed her by the throat
Slit it open with no remorse
could have been anyone
could be you someday soon
And she had no time to scream oh no oh no
And she had no time to think maybe coulda shoulda woulda
Fate just grabbed her by the throat
Slit it open with no remorse
could have been anyone
could be you someday soon

Darling i never meant to be so crazy
I meant for this to last forever
But i saw you dancing with another man
making them moves i just cant stand
Shotgun
Got me again
Guess im gonna have to bury my girlfriend
Under the mojave moon
Dead body in the trunk of my car
Cop pulls me over to the side of the road
Shotgun
Got me again
Guess im gonna have to bury The Man
Under the mojave moon
Cant you tell its love
cant you tell its love
Bloodstains and im washing my clothes
Police dog sticks in his nose
Shotgun
Got me again
Guess im gonna have to bury mans best friend
Under the mojave moon
Now they're coming to get me i can feel them close behind
I guess i'll have to find a place to hide away
Knock Knock at my door again
Cant you tell its not even 10
Shotgun
Got me again
Guess im gonna have to bury my neighbor
Under the mojave moon
Cant you tell it's love
Cant you tell it's love
That drives us stark raving mad

All my mistakes come back to haunt me
In the middle of the night crawling into my dreams
I dont even wanna close my eyes
I dont even want to fall asleep
A banana for breakfast egg sandwich for lunch
Nothing for dinner and i've got a hunch
While everyone's sleeping so peacefully
I'll be awake just the stars and me
The moon is bright and the tile is cold
Im just pacing on the kitchen floor
Why wont my fears just leave me alone
Insecurities can show themselves to the door
Let me tell you the problem with the world today
All these people are sleep depraved
Maybe if we could just do the right things
We could all get a good nights sleep

All these ropes and all these chains
Still rattle in my brain
And i've not yet figured out
Whats causing me this pain
So im drinking for salvation
But i still aint seen the light
Go on for those who deserve to live
Dispite those who survive
So a toast now to the rich man
who keeps going on dispite
And i'd give everything i had
To someone that was right
But i've not met anyone
Thats not a parasite
So if your out there in the crowd
and your tired and hungry
Come have a drink on me
Come have a drink on me
Cuz my souls about bone dry
and i could use the company
So if your out there in the crowd
and your tired and hungry
Come have a drink on me
Come have a drink on me
Cuz my souls about bone dry
and i could use the company

EAT IT! EP

The album art is what drew me first to this album, although I had already heard a different album. Loved that one, loved this one. Just genuinely feel-good music.

this album truly feels like a journey. there is a strong atmosphere of transience and solidarity, a feeling of constant change. if you commit yourself to listening through, you will come out a different person.

Comme d'habitude, j'ai bien du mal à choisir une "favorite track" avec ce groupe de Trashgrass qui excelle dans son domaine. Mais là, j'ai réussi à me décider finalement. XD

From The Outside
by Bert Jansch
A look back at the late Bert Jansch's 1985 classic, "From The Outside," an album that bridges the gap between his native Scotland and the Americana his music invokes.

Hoping the threat in the album title isn't real, because her voice and nostalgic production is such a good listen.
