Hey DJ, keep on playing my song The one about fool who got it all wrong But don't count me in Too much that I do, I do it out of habit Gonna push back from the person I inhabit Don't count me in. Uh-huh, don't count me in. There’s a cat over there, he’s looking kinda mean Wants me to follow him but this is not my scene Don't count me in I’m a soldier and a mystic, a baker and a thief I can be a carpenter, that is my belief Don't count me in. Uh-huh, don't count me in. I'm was afraid I was losing The will to walk away Looking for a way to stay And let it ride Got myself into the cold air Before the bell of closing time Left the scene of the crime And no one died Living on soul food, I can’t pay the rent Gonna keep on burning all those letters that they sent Don’t count me in Let me dance on solid air, let me dine on dreams Open up Pandora’s box, take it to extremes Don't count me in. Uh-huh, don't count me in. One thing is certain, the best will be recovered I don't know who I am, but I will be discovered Don’t count me in Don’t want a sad guru to guide my evolution Got to get on home to start my revolution Don't count me in. Uh-huh, don't count me in.

In times like these, when the smoke of the night Takes a while to clear, until you can see the light And all the colours run in the tears of the morning sun, and rise Over a lonely little town, like an antique eiderdown Which seems to have sadly frayed, with no hope of being saved In times like these, when we don't know what to do When even small things fall apart, and the train just passes through Tired of the same old lies, as truth wear’s her disguise again Running along on empty, in the land of plenty Feeling it's now or never, to steal a chance whenever Together we are strong, together we can breathe Unfold from all our history and sail the seven seas Get a little wild, become more reconciled Together we can rise! Together we can rise! In times like these, when the questions turn to dust Where there once was gold, now there's only rust Where the ghosts of the fall can't make the time to call on you You and I were lovers, now we’re real good friends Don't you run for cover, I'll love you till the end

Steve Bonham and The Long Road England, UK

A swampy brew of styles mixed from both sides of the ocean, characterised by sharp lyrics, great melodies and the fab sound of acoustic instruments being played with passion and purpose. It’s a kind of music that appeals to the renegade and outlaw in us all. ... more
