The Psychedelic Redneck Jamboree
Improvised by my friend John and me at some ungodly hour of the night. John is the one who growls and says random things.
A wide range of musical styles.
This is my band. It consists of me.
Story behind the song
We recorded a song. We needed lyrics. It was late. I strung together random things. The lyrics range from talking about complete nonsense to what's on the TV to a girl I met one summer.
Lyrics
It's hard
I'm talkin bout the psychedelic redneck jamboree
The sky is purple and the ocean's green
I'd go into the woods if it weren't for that monster
It's mean
The Mammas and the Pappas bounce with Claudio
A victim to the rhythm of the undertow
Let go, let go
The undertow
It's hard to play the banjo in the jamboree
I'm spinnin with the stick and I'm feelin free
So pick up a guitar and play along with me
We'll make fun of Mike and Judy sitting in a tree
Playin hard, lost my head, broke my heart
Say good-bye, Superfly, poison dart
It's so hard
Feelin like I'm dealin in the stealin of a soul
Crossin all the lines now as I lose control
Extra doesn't quit, but then again it's only gum
I'd like to lift a finger but my hands both weigh a ton
It's hard in the psychedelic redneck jamboree
