about

Debut single from Crank Williams!
Nothing like a good old fashioned prison song to kick off proceedings!
Come get ya some!

lyrics

Where do go when the sun don't rise for you?
Where do you go when the chains hold you so tight?
Are you still thinking 'bout that girl down by the gulf....
That said that she'd be waiting there for you?
Tell me why'd you have to go and kill that man,
put a gun against his back and made your stand
Did you think that it would give you peace of mind?
like you'd be turning all that water into wine
There's only two ways out of here....
Over the wall or swingin' on the gallows pole.
Tell me can you picture a Cadillac?....or maybe with a spare tire on the back?....with spinner caps and eight pots under the hood?,
Tell me did you'd think it would ever be that good?
Maybe you could just make the state line road?, ditch it behind the trees out in the woods?...You close your eyes and you really start to feel, the sun rising over a stolen set of wheels...
All of sudden that wall don't look so high!
The hangman's gonna pull that noose real tight
The trap and the chute gonna snap back in the night
The whole world gonna feel your deathly plight
Maybe that could be your chance to run?
The rest of the world are sleeping or having their fun
But who are you kidding, those traps are locked up tight
You'd have to chance your arm in the early morning light
You'd rather catch a bullet halfway over the wall, than be left swinging on the gallows pole
Tell me why'd you have to go and kill that man,
put a gun against his back and made your stand
Did you think that it would give you peace of mind?
like you'd be turning all that water into wine
There's only two ways out of here...
Over the wall or swingin' on the gallows pole

TALL TALES AND TRUTHS, SUMMONED FROM THE BARSTOOL OF A DARKENED SALOON. Crank Williams music is like a happy collision between the Ramones tour bus, and Merle Haggard's cattle truck! Let Crank take you on a tour of the musical equivalent of the twelve step that'll have you cashing in those chip's, grabbing the nearest drink and kicking up those Cuban heels! Come get ya some! ... more
