lyrics

Searching for static with a head full of sound,
Wishing something like whiskey could drown this noise out,
Making friends with my crazy and getting along
With a head full of somebody else’s songs.

Well the profits/propeht’s have all gone quiet,
The profits/prophets was once all the rage,
Well the peddlers of panic ain’t ever wrong, ain’t ever right,
Well the peddlers of panic still turn a mean wage.

Ain’t no reason for not being humble,
Ain’t no reason for not being kind,
When the bad days come and you’re all in and stuck,
When they take the house, don’t let ‘em take the fire.

Well you can spend your days digging ditches, burning bridges, casting wishes,
Everything’s wrong and everything’s a fault line,
Practice on your name to have something up on that headstone,
Don’t give a damn so long as you’re feeling fine.

She asked me to quit picking banjo,
I asked her to quit picking through my yard-sale mind,
Love is love ‘til a hillbilly gets stuck
On a seven chord where there used to be a five.

Nathan Evans Fox Nashville, Tennessee

Born and raised in western North Carolina, Nathan Evans Fox writes songs that sound the way gas stations feel. When it comes to Nathan’s approach, Americana Highways writes, “It’s not cornpone, it’s not alt-country, country-western, or pop-country. Fox has a solid hold on a serious genre of country seldom covered by many artists. It cuts through the commerciality of country music.”
