Some Canadian Bluegrass Alt. Country




Light Enough To Travel

Wound up drunk again on Robson St.
Strange cuz we always agreed
At the start of every evening
That's the last place I wanna be
Coffee drinkers dressed in black with no sugar
They don't give me no respect
They say look her comes another one
And I don't know what they mean yet

And I say
Keep it light enough to travel...
Don't let it all unravel
Keep it light enough to travel

Promise me we won't go into the nightclub
I feel so fucked up when I'm in there
Can't tell the bouncers from the customers
And I don't know which ones I prefer

Promise me we won't go into the nightclub
I really think that it's obscene
What kind of people go to meet people
Someplace they can't be heard or seen

Keep it light enough to travel...
Don't let it all unravel
Keep it light enough to travel

I broke the windows of the logging company
Just to get a little release
I had to throw down my accordion
To get away from the police

And I say...

Keep it light enough to travel...

good band - Tuffy P really loves their recent CD...I'm not so sure they play in a bluegrass tradition though, do they? Now I'd call these characters Canadian bluegrass.

Wow, its great to see the interest in The Be Good Tanyas, one of my all time favourite bands! Check out Gillian Welch too.
