Seven nights stranded on the battlefield
My baby crashes a pillow as the clock numbers beat down one by one
Now I'm starin'
At the morning sun
Baby's cryin'
On the other side
But then you don't remember your dreams (do ya'?)
I fell for you on a wipeout turn
At the last mile I was your lost child found
But you were my-y-y-y wipe out turn
Shirley and I went six months without affection
Till she blindsided me with that other guy she was...drawing up a collection
Only the lonely
Come riddled with jealousy and rage
She gets a papercut
It's time to turn the page
But then you don't remember your dreams (do ya'?)
I fell for you on a wipeout turn
At the last mile I was your lost child found
But you were my-y-y-y wipe out turn
You were my-y-y wipe out turn
I'm gonna run to you
Oh, chase ya' down
Till ya' say yeah...baby
In the end in came my little margarita
We had a way to eat strawberries after school
I could not keep her
From my desperate swoon
I confess
I made my move too soon
But then you don't remember your dreams (do ya'?)
I fell for you on a wipeout turn
At the last mile I was your lost child found
But you were my-y-y-y wipe out turn
You were my-y-y wipe out turn
My baby crashes a pillow as the clock numbers beat down one by one
Now I'm starin'
At the morning sun
Baby's cryin'
On the other side
But then you don't remember your dreams (do ya'?)

Great band!
Get the Mellonbrain connection. But Van the Man is way stronger. BillG - more Van pls!!
Love me some BHTM. I used to help them coil cables after the shows they played in Vail.
Yup, hearing a touch of Van's Wild Nights, but just a touch.

I was going to say the first few bars of Mellencamp's remake of "Wild Nights."
Funny. I definitely thought "Van Morrison" right up until the vocals started and then couldn't put my finger on which song it sounded like.
It's a good song. I like it.

No to both. That is a pretty standard "vi - I" chord vamp; similar to the one used by Van Morrison for "Wild Nights" and many other songs by many other artists. It's not even the same progression that Browne used in his song.
Did they plagirize "Runnin on Empty" ? Did Jackson Brown sue?

Why does Todd's voice sound so - I dunno - strange?
Love hearing BHTM! Thanks Bill

John Hiatt, he wants his sound back.
No reviews for this yet? So far not so good....

The first 20 seconds could turn into Wild Nights if they only went with a stronger base-line.
