about

A true story about a friend

lyrics

There were the hard times
There were the sad times
Maybe some good times
But mostly just bad times
I just can't win, and I just can't lose
These low down broken home blues

I did all cooking
And cleaning for you
Until they turned off the power
And the water too
I just can't win, and I just can't lose
These low down broken home blues

She put her things in pile
And said with a smile
It's gonna be a while
Until you see the likes of me
You probably don't care
But I've got to be somewhere
Theres a lot of important people
Waiting for me there

I busted my hump
For the two of us
So why you got to go and
Throw me under the bus
I just can't win, and I just can't lose
These low down broken home blues

She put her things in pile
And said with a smile
It's gonna be a while
Maybe never and a day
But what she meant to say
Baby I'll make you pay
You'll be so sad and lonely
Until your last dying day

She took all my pride
She took all my joy
She took all my money
And both of the boys
I just can't win, I just can't lose
These old low down broken home blues

There were the hard times
We had the sad times
Maybe some good times
But mostly just bad times
Just can't win, just can't lose
Got these old low down broken home blues

Americana and sometimes
“Spacey Hippy Rock”,
with thought provoking lyrics, surrounded in a bed of organic, analog instruments played by humanoids

After a long absence of playing music together, John and Rand got hired to play a gig amidst the height of COVID. At the gig, they came up with the beginnings of the song “Back To You”. The boys soon realized that two heads are better than one.
