about

Recorded live at Scott's Addition Sound, Richmond, VA. 2012.

lyrics

Woke up limpin' but I took off runnin'
Out of Memphis, Tennessee
Mojo hand got the worst of you
But it got the best of me

The red head at Tater Reds
Said it's the way it's got to be
Drink your drink and pat your feet
But they clear the streets at three

Bet your hand or roll your dice
To guess the trouble I'll get in
There's all that's fair in love and war
And I don't know where to begin

Now it appears the custom here
Is to kiss you on your head
To fry some fish and cook some greens
To keep the family fed

Now I'm a man who drinks and smokes
And has his healthy needs
But not a peach in all the south
Was as sweet as her iced tea

Now I declare it's in the air
Or in the water I suppose
And me and Shane, we don't complain
About the rain or the cold

Handsome G may disagree
Where to eat our barbecue
But in kind there's peace of mind
To know the flavor of the blues

Whiskey jars and side street bars
And colors you can't see
But every night I often wake
With dreams of Tennessee
