lyrics

Well we were tripping over headstones
While you were laughing at the cops
The corn path led us back to the white chapel cross
There we toasted with a ghost
Hung with medals around his throat
He said if fear is an option
I suggest you let it go

You have to fight
To stick around

And the fist-felt cinder blocks
They left me sleeping at the docks
The houseboats tethered crashing
They were thrashing on the rock
And I woke up to the sirens
The dispatch static hum
We got a kid lost out on the diamond
He’s strung out on the mound

The closer came and shut him down
The closer came and shut him down
The closer came and shut him down

J.W. Teller Jackson, Mississippi

“His songs reflect this sensibility, along with sometimes painful experiences from living under what was essentially a small-town theocracy.” (Doug Hill, Norman Transcript)
