lyrics

Daddy said, "Girl, remember that our colors all shine through
Ours are mostly red and white and his are black and blue
We've all got things to fall apart, one day we come unglued
Let this be a lesson to you"

Mama said, "Son, remember that all young boys make mistakes
There's men with hearts as black as tar, I've seen yours and it ain't
Ain't never been a man who knows his way right from the start
Just listen to your heart"

I will try to start again with my band of roughened friends
Telling me that there's no end
I will try to start again

Mama said, "Son, there ain't much that a boy like you just needs
You've got a mind to work it out when your red heart does bleed
Your strength will always pull you through as long as you stay true
To the things that brought you here"

Daddy said, "Girl, I know you love that outlaw more than I
You've been through thick, you've been through thin
You've laughed and damn sure cried
I know I can't convince you but forgive me as I try
Sometimes love is goodbye"

I will try to start again with my band of roughened friends
Telling me that there's no end
I will try to start again

Rose Boulevard recommends:

Strange Things Can Happen At Sea
by Jeff Linden and the Black Spot Society

Not only does this guy pluck the banjo with a fiery passion, he's as good a songwriter as they come and wildly ambitious to boot. This album is epic in scope and unparalleled in its execution. Rose Boulevard

Somewhere New
by Cold Weather Company

As good live as they are on record, CWC is an awesome blend of finger-picked melodies, percussive strumming, insistent piano and thoughtful lyrics. Also dead-on harmonies, which you know we like. Rose Boulevard

Good Conversation
by The Hart Strings

Folky songs with great harmonies and varied instrumentation. A great listen. Rose Boulevard
