| Brian Setzer – Bobby's Back Lyrics | 13 years ago |
|
Well c'mon Won't you c'mon man, I hear that Bobby's back from being upstate He learned his lesson, so they say, well I guess we'll wait and see He's got a new corvette, he says it does a hundred and twenty, easy Got some catchin' up to do, some crazy score to settle When I first heard Bobby's back, the first thing that I thought of Was how his chic like up and left with some guy she just met I don't think that he knew it yet, man it sent a chill right through me The only thing he ever loved just left with his last paycheck Bobby's back, maybe for good this time All his life, he was the last in line Bobby's back, maybe for good this time All my life, he was a friend of mine Bobby's face looked pale and thin, as if some ghost had haunted him When he asked me what was new, I wasn't quite sure what to say How come everybody's stickin' bloody fingers in my face? I almost cried and said, "They sure don't make cars like they use to" Bobby's back, maybe for good this time All his life, he was the losing kind Bobby's back, maybe for good this time All his life, he never had peace of mind I shook him hard and said, "Listen man, you can't go back in time again" And never 'til the day that I die did I see tears fall from Bobby's eyes Four or five years had gone by when I read about how Bobby died He smashed his car into a wall, messed up on drugs and alcohol Another brother led astray, well I'lll be damned If I go that way Say a little prayer for him, he lived a life you just can't win Bobby's back, maybe for good this time All his life, he was the last in line Bobby's back, maybe for good this time Bobby's gone, he was a friend of mine |

| Nick 13 – All Alone Lyrics | 13 years ago |
|
A Victrola spins a record The needle plays our song On a summer night like this, the band played and drove on I'm all alone, in this world A typewritter in my mind writes our story in the air Pages they all vanished, like the moments that we shared I'm all alone, in this world All alone (all alone) In this world All alone (all alone) In this world Oh where, oh where's my little girl? A tattoo of Hyndian ink spells her name upon my arm F-O-R-E-V-E-R her love was here but now it's gone I'm all alone, in this world There's a train a-commin' And there aint much to pack I'm leavin this place tonight and I'm never comin back Im all alone, in this world. All alone... It's too much for me, I've gotta move along It's too much for me, I cannot stay I'm gone |

| Nick 13 – Carry My Body Down Lyrics | 13 years ago |
|
How long can this journey go on? Will I find the place I'm meant to go? Will dreams fall down around us, just like the winter snow? Another year has come and gone Will my luck hold on for one year more? I think of how far I have come, and what's been left behind When will they carry my body down? When will they carry my body down? Will they take it from the river after I've jumped right in and drowned? Will they find it on the battlefield, on the spot I stood my ground? I wander long, I wander far - Someday, I'll wander no more I search to find what I have lost and that which I've never known And when I find it I'm gone - Across the river I go I'll take only my memories and things that might have been When will they carry my body down? When will they carry my body down? Will they cut it from a hangman's noose after the sentence has come down? Will anyone be there to morn a villain's passing to the ground? |

| Nick 13 – Nashville Winter Lyrics | 13 years ago |
|
I agree that it's about "getting back to the roots", in this case about Nick 13 pursuing the roots of the psychobilly scene which is the hillbilly/country-scene in Nashville. The lyrics are by the way not correct. I'm amazed that some can't even take their time to buy the album and read what he actually sings. It goes: Sometimes something calls a man to roam He's got to leave behind all the comforts of home and when I heard the music call to me I said goodbye to the winter sun because I had to leave Oh, everything that I want is right here but what I need I cannot get, I got to go somewhere Around this world I've rocked and I have rolled something much older had a hold on my soul There was still a place I just had to see and so I packed my bags and headed for Tennesse Oh, everything that I want is back there but what I need I cannot get, I've got to go somewhere In this Nashville winter I'm a thousand miles from home I set out in search of something that I had to find alone Yeah, I knew I had to live it because I cannot live a lie But out in this Nashville Winter I'm so lonesome I could die The beauty of the Nashville winter and now I'm on my way back home I set out in search of something that I had to find alone Yeeah, and now that I have found it, it's part of my soul through and through And now that winters done my darling, I'll be coming home to you And now that winters done my darling, I'll be coming home to you In conclusion: No, he doesn't hate the Nashville Winter...he's just lonesome ;-) |
