Turkey Hunt '06 (better late than never)





Name That Brand

A-Musing


an' baby I wanna carry you
upside down on a flat pole rising
fell into the sky
got tears in my eye
when a voice like an angel
sweet as maple syrup
grabbed me like a horse
"Put your foot inside my stirrup
I'll be there to help you up."


- "Better Be Careful"
- The Rugburns





The song sounds like a love song, but also one of longing for love. As though the writer wishes to hook up with some dame, but is uncertain. "Cold feet," if you will. Mooning truckers, naked to the gods on a dirt road, this all sounds so young, idealistic, naive. Beautiful.
