I don't know why I can't sit down and sleep tonight.
The Porch Junkies are a guitar driven rock band with smart lyrics, soulful music, and a powerful presence.
Story behind the song
We recorded this song in a shack in Virginia for some no name record label. While we were in one room recording the engineer's pet chinchilla ate a massive whole through Eric's leather jacket.
Lyrics
Tribute to the Hills
This is a tribute to the hills
Feel like I wanna pop some pills
People around us, they know it all
Let's hope they don't stumble and fall
But you know they will
You know I don't see the light at the top of the hill
While the sun sets the summit, it's so still
I'm always gonna dream
That the rain seeps through the cracks
So I can go down down beneath the tracks
And I've seen you walk outside of that road
Gonna be here with you together
Gonna go down and live together and die sometime
This is the tribute to the hills
My mind it always steals it's chills
Nature and creatures, they realm the field
Let's all sit back and click our heels
You know I don't see the light at the top of the hill
While the sun sets the summit, it's so still
I'm always gonna dream
That the rain seeps through the cracks
So I can go down, down beneath the tracks
I don't, I don't know why
Why I can't sit down and sleep tonight
I don't, I don't know why
Why I can't sit down and sleep tonight
