Fat Boy Blues (and then some)

from Orphan Songs by Darryl Gregory

/

about

A song about a guy doin' what he's gotta do.

lyrics

I'm not worried about time
Seen all the good Lord can send
Throttle up and heading round the bend 
And then some 

All my exes say I'm going straight to hell
For all the shit I mighta said and done 
I just tell ‘em babe it’s been fun 
And then some 

And my bones are telling me it's time to get out on the road 
Ain’t nothing here tying me down 
Sell a few of my guitars
Sleep out underneath the stars
See the deep heart of the country 
And then some 

So I roll out my FatBoy v-twin
Riding low and heavy nothin’ to lose
That horse was born to cruise
And then some

Hot Texas wind in my face
Nothing but scrub, pumpjacks and barbed wire
With no premise or desire I head down the road 
And then some

Don’t need the world and it don’t need me
Just this ribbon of road from Abilene to El Paso
At my age I should know
Which way my wheels go
It’s all just a shot in the dark
And then some

I’m not worried about time
Rear view mirror showing me what I left behind
And then some

Take a little Mellencamp, throw in some Cash, stir with a dash of Hiatt and flavor with Springsteen & Earle. Sounds Like Darryl Gregory. Heat-n-Eat! mmm good.
