This heart of mine is burning slow
My time has yet to come, to come
So darling don't you be cross with me
Each day has enough trouble of its own

I won't lie
I won't try to make you lift this heart of stone
I won't hide
Girl I'm on your side, I'll make you feel at home
Make you lose that urge to roam
If you love me, don't be a stranger

I've loved you lately, I've loved you in vain
I made you walk the tightrope of my mind, my mind
Through all these lonely nights I've spent on earth
I've never lost a minute of our time

I won't lie
I won't try to make you lift this heart of stone
I won't hide
Girl I'm on your side, I'll make you feel at home
Make you lose that urge to roam
If you love me, don't be a stranger

I won't lie
I won't try to make you lift this heart of stone
I won't hide
Girl I'm on your side, I'll make you feel at home
Make you lose that urge to roam
If you love me, don't be a stranger
Don't be a stranger

Ah yes, PERMISSABLE bigotry! Hey, RLM (Redneck Lives Matter).
Reminds me of Poco.
Stinks of redneckery.
Sounds like T Bone Burnett with his hands tied behind his back.

Refers to the credit stealing author Clement Clarke Moore's use in Rudy's mates - Donner and Blitzen.
Tired of too many cowboys!

Someone who traps flashes of light?

My first thought is it's someone who traps reindeer. But who knows?
If you spliced Ozark Mountain Daredevils and Grateful Dead together, you'd get this. A good 7 for me!
Hey man, which way to Woodstock?



What happened to the other bohemian beauty? ---> ;-(

Nice throwback tune. Some things never go out of style.

Terrific album.
Not the best Blitzen Trapper song by any means, but still good.

Would love to hear some more though Bill - they make some simply awesome tracks. 
Sounds like a throwback cuz it is!!

I liked this when it was called, "Wasn't Born to Follow." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3hEfcawx6Fc

If you love me
Don't be a stranger


Good find, this! RP is lucky to have listeners who don't live in my town; listeners who can get on to bands like this!
damn, and it's too late to put this on my Christmas list.  
...do so like this bluegrassy kind of pickin'
