This is my OTHER band page. Hi, I'm Road Apples, and I've created this page for my more acoustic, country-sounding music. For the rest of my stuff, which is more rock oriented (louder electric guitars, etc) please go to:

Story behind the song
I wrote this while on a drive back from Saskatoon to Calgary...probably one of the weirdest songs I've ever written...but the lyrics, such as they are, were genuinely heartfelt at the time! :)
Lyrics
Outside of Marengo there is nothing left to see It rains until the sun comes out – means nothing much to me Tell you what - I sure could use a change Just outside of Youngstown I’m trying to be clever I’m feeling close to comatose and the fields go on forever This ain’t my home – home on the range Chorus: The road’s my only friend it ain’t good company There’s the town of Sibbald where nothing much goes down Nobody lives or dies there ain’t no one around I guess that’s just the way it goes round here Just outside of Oyen I think I fell asleep This is the drive from Hell I could have slept a week No one would know and no one would care Chorus: Just outside of Hanna I was moving right along I don’t think that Nickelback ever wrote a song ‘bout their home town – I guess I’ll do the same Chorus: The road’s my only friend it ain’t good company The last two hundred miles were like a blur to me The time goes by so slow I know you would agree Outside of Nowheresville will you go there with me?
