lyrics

he’s crying gasoline tears again / 42 years down the drain / wearing his old medicine hat / all black and flat / from Saskatoon to Mineral Bay / he sent her postcards everyday / “Know I love you, wish you were here” / Saskatoon to Mineral Bay // take me, go around town, said maybe / take me far from everything / far away from everything // you know there’s six kinds of hell / three kinds of real love / seven kinds of wonder / and ten gods up above / through the smoke and through the rain / I pound the rail and I scream his name / everything I own rides now on you / so, go baby go / I don't know about the chances coming through the crowd / falling towers, take a stand, watch it on TV / I don't know if the chances are good enough for long enough / but there ain't no sin in wishing you were gone / count the roadside crosses / count the trucks that pass on by / the radio crackles with the thunder / and the lightning down inside / there’s nothing here but darkness / keep on driving through the night / you’re alone with your thoughts and hopes and sex and fears and dreams tonight

“Pike 27 plays rock and roll: jangly, smart, sometimes noisy, usually joyful, always passionate. RIYL REM, Alejandro Escovedo, and Elvis Costello in all of their genre-crossing forms.” — CityBeat Midpoint Music Festival guide
