Pup Tent 02:57
Here we are in time and space wishing we were someplace else working like dogs who've lost their way and maybe their minds as well just waiting on a story to tell I'll be your pup tent, I'll be the low rent Your psychiatric advice for five cents I'll get you out of here and we can go there I could be anyone, we could be anywhere Let's run off to the record store some late autumn afternoon When it starts raining cats and dogs we'll buy up all your favorite tunes then dance by the light of the moon I'll be your pup tent, I'll be the low rent Your psychiatric advice for five cents I'll get you out of here and we can go there I could be anyone, we could be anywhere I'll be your cat nap, the falling leaves that Unlock a memory that brings it all back I'll get you out of here and we can go there I could be anyone, we could be anywhere I'll be your pup tent, I'll be the low rent Your psychiatric advice for five cents I'll get you out of here and we can go there I could be anyone, we could be anywhere I'll be your goose chase, I'll be that home base The wrong direction straight to the right place Let's just get out of here, let's make our way there I could be anyone, we could be anywhere

She said that I should have a good night She said that I should have a good night She said that I should have a good night She said that I should have a good night As you are, so I am in search of some homeland He said let go of all the bad times He said let go of all the bad times He said let go of all the bad times He said let go of all the bad times As you are, so I am in search of some homeland where my heart extends its reach and I listen when you speak We're turning corners in our lives We're turning corners in our lives We're turning corners in our lives We're turning corners in our lives Where my heart extends its reach and I listen when you speak Where my heart extends its reach and I listen when you speak

Peace 03:27
In the cafe on any given day every table hears A to Z Someone's at the end of their rope While another turns a brand new leaf He's packing up the business She's kicking off the show He's got to put a stop to this and she's got to get up and go and then the wind blows Sometimes the weather doesn't do what they say that it's gonna do and neither do you You've been a tornado and you've been the breeze I read back over my pages walking valleys and climbing peaks The darkness is saying something then the light begins to speak Pay no mind to the world outside Build something better within I kick the fear and doubt out then they kick the door back in and the wind blows again Sometimes the weather doesn't do what they say that it's gonna do and neither do you You've been a tornado and you've been the breeze Tearing houses to pieces Singing through the trees Running into the mountains Searching for some relief Sometimes the weather doesn't do what they say that it's gonna do and neither do you You've been a tornado and you've been the breeze Tearing houses to pieces Singing through the trees Running into the mountains Searching for some relief and I hope you find peace I hope you find peace

about

“‘Pup Tent’ hits that wonderful sweet spot between folk, pop, and rock. Totally timeless, the song could have wafted from the speakers of a dorm room stereo in 1975. Or it could be performed next weekend in that bar across town, the one that books the really good indie bands.”
—Reverb Raccoon

"Excellent new pop from Nashville!"
—Jangle Pop
