Song information
This one has a special place in my heart. It was written by David Eugene Edwards (16 Horsepower) in 1996. A dark tale... about abuse and virtue (maybe)... I've been working on this for years. I got the concertina riff working long ago (was not easy - at least for me..) but I always was frustrated by the final mix. Lucky me, I started to use Logic Pro last year and I could finally get closer to the sound I had in mind. I hope you'll enjoy this folky-punky tune ! Play it loud if you can !

Lyrics
I've grown tired
of the words of the single man
Hangin' lifeless on his every word
Oh no, man

You don't understand, dear man
The little angel held out her hand
Sayin', "Father, Father, I love you"
Oh, praise Jesus, I got you

Okay, yeah, billy goat,
And we'll play farm
I didn't mean to spirit stiff you
Nor to do you no harm

You say you've got a bone to pick, well…
There's plenty showin' on me
Come on up, yeah, bring your temper, boy
We'll see, we'll see…

Yeah, you may be the one
Come on, son
Bring your blade and…your gun

And if I die
By your hand, Lord
I've got a home in Glory Land

I love the way this song is built on this accordion riff. And it builds up strong. Wonderful music. The sound is great.

Love the odd meter and cool buildup. A song sung and with attitude. You sir are in fine form here. So’s the mix.

Ohhh the Accordion!
The instrument I grew up with! 
That riff would have been very difficult to play!
Great song Dyl, hints of attitude that reflects on the American news of late!? Love this
