Evil Olive is Progressive Rock and Roll with a side of Jazz and Blues. One out of every two Evil Olive band members are longhairs.
is a three (or sometimes four) piece band hailing from the small burg of Capshaw, Alabama. Our focus is on creating original music. To that end, we have recorded two CD's, and intend to begin our third (tentatively titled Rabbits Should Not Be Pets) in early 2005. Visit our website for more info:

Story behind the song
The Atlantic Ocean inspired me to write this song way back in the early 90's.
Lyrics
Edge of the World Sitting on the balcony of a beachside motel dive Staring at the graduates They’re playing out my youth in drunken ecstasy When I was there, I never thought that I'd see twenty-five And life has grown so weary That I’ve come back here to hear the ocean talk to me I swear this guitar does sound good across the sea I swear the ancient ocean water sets me free I have heard the anguish of a thousand poet cries Staring right in front of me At an empty page that screams the wicked laugh of death I have fled the lifestyle that society supplies And I crawled back on my hands and knees So desperate and poor I fought for every breath I swear this guitar does sound good across the sea I swear the ancient ocean water sets me free Carry me, the road ahead has so much sorrow Carry me, or I may never see tomorrow Carry me, from your unending strength I borrow
