Mixed Bag

Hi, Welcome to the space where I place my songs and musical ideas. I can't remember when I started writing/recording my thoughts and experiences. It seems I have always done so. The first band I was in was grade 7. High School band probably inspired it. We were just a bunch of young geek's trying to be cool, fit in and get some recognition.

Story behind the song

Although this song is focused on the trucking industry, it really is a statement about being driven by pasion, or addiction, or dreams that that consume and are never fulfilled.

Lyrics

Last Midnight Cowboy
 
     B Carbol  

     V1 See them pushin colored stallions 
     movin down I5 
     belchin smoke their barrels white they 
     fight the traffic through the night 
     Rusty, Blue and Danno Boy 
     No one knows the names 
     of the countess men who've come and gone and 
     played those truckers games cause they're  

     C1 Riding on the wings of some 
     forgotten fantasy till a  
     corner or a hill comes a little too fast and 
     another Cowboy is free - there  
     ain't no way to play and win but they 
     know they'll always try - cause once 
     movin on gets in your blood, it will 
     burn a big hole deep in your gut that 
     not much else will fill  

     Now the Ol' Cog Grinder, was a Midnight Cowboy 
     and he'll always be one - He 
     had a little lady that he married named Sadie but 
     Sadie couldn't stand livin alone - The 
     kids are in school she called him a fool she says 
     the kids they don't even know ya - It's like 
     whisky in YOUR brain, BUT its drivin ME insaine I don't 
     want to but ya know I'm gonna leave ya - Cause your  

     C2 Riding on the wings of some 
     forgotten fantasy till a  
     corner or a hill comes a little too fast and 
     another Cowboy is free - there  
     ain't no way to play and win but they 
     know they'll always try - cause once 
     movin on gets in your blood, it will 
     burn a big hole deep in your gut that 
     not much else will fill  

     Lead - 16 Bars  

     And he's  

     C3 Riding on the wings of some 
     forgotten fantasy till a  
     corner or a hill comes a little too fast and 
     another Cowboy is free - there  
     ain't no way to play and win but they 
     know they'll always try - cause once 
     movin on gets in your blood, it will 
     burn a big hole deep in your gut that 
     not much else will fill  

     V3, Nobody knows what it's  
     like to get old in the seat of the Kenny your drivin, but the 
     man at the wheel, who's got the  
     feel for the road and a 
     lot of memories left behind him - but he's 
     burned all his bridges and what's  
     left are the wishes 
     of the ways he thinks things should have gone 
     but he knows that its done ya can't 
     stop what's begun and there's 
     still alot of whiteline before him Cause he's  

     C3 Riding on the wings of some 
     forgotten fantasy till a  
     corner or a hill comes a little too fast and 
     another Cowboy is free - there  
     ain't no way to play and win but they 
     know they'll always try - cause once 
     movin on gets in your blood, it will 
     burn a big hole deep in your gut that 
     not much else can fill  

     Once movin on gets In your blood it'l 
     burn a big hole deep in your gut - once 
     Once movin on gets in your gut - it'l 
     burn a big hole deep in your gut that 
     not much else can fill
