"Greenville" lyrics
"Greenville"
(originally by Lucinda Williams)
Don't wanna see you again or hold your hand
'Cause you don't really love me, you're not my man
You're not my man, oh you're not my man
Go back to Greenville, just go on back to Greenville
You scream and shout and you make a scene
When you open your mouth you never say what you mean
Say what you mean, oh say what you mean
Go back to Greenville, just go on back to Greenville
You drink hard liquor, you come on strong
You lose your temper, someone looks at you wrong
Looks at you wrong, oh looks at you wrong
Go back to Greenville, just go on back to Greenville
Out all night playin' in a band
Looking for a fight with a guitar in your hand
A guitar in your hand, oh a guitar in your hand
Go back to Greenville, just go on back to Greenville
Empty bottles and broken glass
Busted down doors and borrowed cash
Borrowed cash, oh borrowed cash
Go back to Greenville, just go on back to Greenville
Lookin' for someone to save you
Lookin' for someone to rave about you
To rave about you, oh to rave about you
Go back to Greenville, just go on back to Greenville

The Staves - "I'm On Fire" Hey little girl, is your daddy home?
Did he go and leave you all alone?
I got a bad desire
Oh, oh, oh, I'm on fire
Tell me now baby, is he good to you?
And does he do to you the things that I do?...
Sarah Jarosz - "Take Me Back" Take me back in time again
Stay with me like you did then
Take me as you find me here
Take me now, feel me near
Love like I never knew before
Someday will fade and be ignored
Nothing is forever...
Leif Vollebekk - "Hot Tears" Maybe I'm just drawn to the wonder
I can feel it coming
Do you hear the Ninth?
From the river bridge
I hear the thunder
Eye of the storm and your skin on mine
Tell me what's the story
My morning...
The Revivalists - "Soulfight" Isn't anybody home in here
It's getting cold and I just don't care
So I'm gonna find something else to do
Just take a really good look at me
I'm 22 and I still don't see why
All of you people can't...
