  • Claiborne Avenue - Vinyl LP
    Record/Vinyl + Digital Album

    Whether you love the warm sound of vinyl or just enjoy a beautiful 12" piece of artwork, this is the primo incarnation of "Claiborne Avenue." My 1st vinyl LP ever, in 30+ years of making music. NOTE because vinyl sound degrades with more than 21 minutes per side, you get two fewer tracks with this version (but you also get digital download codes for the whole album). Track List: Side One 1. Grey Green Eyes 2. Guns and Sharp Swords 3. Claiborne Avenue 4. Kenosha Baby - Side Two 1. You Know Me Best 2. Moon Tide 3. Ship 4. Down at the Fly 10. Just To Be Total Time: 39 minutes 14 secs

    Includes unlimited streaming of Claiborne Avenue via the free Bandcamp app, plus high-quality download in MP3, FLAC and more.

KENOSHA BABY

Kenosha baby
You blew me apart
How can I ever forget your name
Kenosha baby
You broke my heart
And I don’t think that I, however I try
Can ever be the same

Well Kyle you were cute
In your policeman suit
And your sweet captain’s hat
Kyle I give you so much credit for that
But you walked in half assed
And the shit got real fast
Coulda stayed home in bed
Now you shot three men dead
Who put all those dumb ideas in your sweet head?

And my sweet teenage friend
Your 15 minutes will end
But the lives that you took
Kyle, there ain't no way to close up that book

Burning and smashing, it's all in good fun
But now my revolutionaries look what you've done
You made little Kyle leave Illinois with his gun
I’m so sorry my son
I’m sorry for what you done

Kenosha baby
You blew me apart
How can I ever put out these flames
Kenosha baby
You broke my heart
And I don’t think that I, however I try
Can ever be the same

Oh Kyle child I bet
You could be a star
Can’t even buy a cigarette
But Kyle somehow you can carry an AR

Cause this is America where shit is insane
Where some eyes see murder and think "how can I gain"
And Julia Jackson please let me explain
Your words were so beautiful but there’s an oncoming train
Speeding down the track, 500 miles an hour
And there’s no looking back, and its fury and power
Are carrying us home
Carry me home

Kenosha baby
You blew me apart
How can I ever win this game
Kenosha baby
You broke my heart
And I don’t think that I, however I try
Can ever be the same

And I don’t think that I, however I try
Can ever be the same
