Weeds blow tall on a broken train track
Ruth B. draws, we're fixin' to get high
Maybe we'll hit the bluffs
And find ourselves the same old rum
But everybody says this place is beautiful
And you'd be so crazy to say goodbye
But everything's the same, this town is pitiful
And I'll be gettin' out as soon as I can fly
Life goes by on a Talihina sky
The hopped up boys are lookin' for their trouble
The knocked up girls, well, they've all got their share
Ruth seems out of her mind, swears she won't give in this time
But everybody says this place is beautiful
And you'd be so crazy to say goodbye
But everything's the same, this town is pitiful
And I'll be gettin' out as soon as I can fly
Life goes by on a Talihina sky
Life goes by on a Talihina sky
But everybody says this place is beautiful
And you'd be so crazy to say goodbye
But everything's the same, this town is pitiful
And I'll be gettin' out as soon as I can fly
Life goes by on a Talihina sky
Life goes by on a Talihina sky
Ruth B. draws, we're fixin' to get high
Maybe we'll hit the bluffs
And find ourselves the same old rum
But everybody says this place is beautiful
And you'd be so crazy to say goodbye
But everything's the same, this town is pitiful
And I'll be gettin' out as soon as I can fly
Life goes by on a Talihina sky
The hopped up boys are lookin' for their trouble
The knocked up girls, well, they've all got their share
Ruth seems out of her mind, swears she won't give in this time
But everybody says this place is beautiful
And you'd be so crazy to say goodbye
But everything's the same, this town is pitiful
And I'll be gettin' out as soon as I can fly
Life goes by on a Talihina sky
Life goes by on a Talihina sky
But everybody says this place is beautiful
And you'd be so crazy to say goodbye
But everything's the same, this town is pitiful
And I'll be gettin' out as soon as I can fly
Life goes by on a Talihina sky
Life goes by on a Talihina sky

yeah, im also surprised no ones commented. theyre a pretty damn good band, although sometimes calebs overly slurred together vocals do get on my nerves (aka trani), actually caleb himself is kind of, not necessarily annoying, but yeah, a little annoying. i saw them open for the strokes in october (and actually ended up meeting both bands through sheer luck), and everytime calebs hair got out of place he stopped playing and smoothed it out, and he did that every couple of minutes throughout their set. okay, i spose thats not so very annoying, but it IS really funny watching a singer groom himself when the rest of the band is rocking out. also, he was wearing a scarf and boots with pretty high heels/platforms for a guy because hes so short. haha, sorry, i swear i do think this band is great despite my making fun of them, and sorry im really not commenting on talihina sky (great hidden track), but if you ever get to see caleb fuss over his appearance on stage, you'll understand just how funny it is.
just a bit of trivia for you... caleb slurred his words on a lot of kings of leon's earlier songs because he was very self-conscious about his own lyrics.<br /> as for you meeting the strokes and kings of leon at the same time. they're my only two favourite bands. i envy you.
