lyrics

Just sitting on Fernwood street, laid back just shootin' the breeze. Nowhere to be, no one to see, twenty to three just sitting on Fernwood street.
Spend my days alone and cold. See the sky through the broken window. Before I get old, lo and behold, pack up and go. Spend my days on the open road.

Gone past all I know.

Two legs and an open slate
Three options to contemplate
Four different ways
Five darkened days
Six feet of rain
Two legs and an open slate.
I fell in love on a run of hard luck. She took me home and she cleaned me up. She just kind of shrugged and said it ain't much, but she got me unstuck. I fell in love on a run of hard luck. And we'll be

Gone (take our chances)
Gone (leap and hold on)
Gone past all we know.

Stand tall and deeply breathe. I remember who I used to be; small as a seed yearning to be as tall as a tree. Stand tall and deeply breathe.
(Gone) Just sitting on Fernwood Street
(Gone) Laid back, just shooting the breeze
(Gone past all we know)
Nowhere to be, no one to see, twenty to three, just sitting on Fernwood Street.

Gone (take our chances)
Gone (leap and hold on)
Gone past all we know.
Gone past all we've come to know.

by The Chimney Swallows

Raghu Lokanathan + Corwin Fox = insightful songs, great lyrics, tasty melodies and more than a few chuckles. Did we mention there is a rap song with an accordion? a Million Dollars in Pennies

Wire Wood Wind
by Miss Emily Brown

Miss Emily Brown is a sunbeam who writes atypical folk songs. Sometimes she plays with a band, and sometimes its just her, a harpsichord, and her lovely voice. You will not be disappointed. a Million Dollars in Pennies

I'll Be There Tomorrow
by The Sumner Brothers

Be prepared to be haunted, enlightened and unsure. The Sumner boys are like a boilermaker on a Saturday afternoon; they've come to finish what they've started. Equal parts melodic and barbaric. a Million Dollars in Pennies
