by The Swayback

Chris Bates An album you can just put on and let play, it's hard to pick just one favorite track. The Swayback is maybe a little more straight rock-n-roll than what they would become in Dragondeer, but if you enjoy this seek out that! Favorite track: St. Francis.

What Death Cares About Well it ain't picky And it ain't tricky It aint' about some point of view Well it ain't picking sides It don't care what you hide Or what you’ve done Or how you overcome All your wicked ways It don't care who stays Vultures circle in the breezeTigers circle to that sound There ain't much death cares about As it blows your straw house down It don't revel in the sound Of screaming in the night It don't care who's right It's still gonna go down Well it ain't picky And it ain't tricky It aint' about some point of view Well it ain't picking sides Don't care what you hide Or what you've done Or how you overcome All your wicked ways It don't care who stays Vultures circle in the breeze Tigers circle to that sound You just spin the blindfolded swinger round There ain't much death cares about As it blows your straw house down It don't revel in the sound Of screaming in the night It don't care who's right Still gonna go down

Gonna Walk 03:09
Gonna Walk I'm your jack of trades So quit jacking me around I see through your veils and I scoff Someone told me bout the revolution And I was right on board I got up I got strong I wanted more I'm gonna walk Don't tell me what I know I'm gonna walk Just gonna get up and go Something bout my serenade gets you off Something bout my heart strings flying low Well I wonder where my heart could be Someone give it back to me I just wanna roll in your loving arms I'm gonna walk Don't tell me what I know I'm gonna walk Love so free Waiting there for me Swear mark my words Simple as can be I'm gonna walk Get me some of that free Hold it high up in my hands looking back at me Lord I'm gonna walk Get me just a little piece of that free I'm gonna walk Don't tell me what I know I'm gonna walk outside and get free

Steamrolling 04:02
Steamrolling There are no missteps Only precise strikes There are no backfires Just full steams ahead I think this saw blade is getting hungry I think this axe it wants to chop chop chop Steamrolling Just enough to get me going When I wake up in the morning rolling Steamrolling Just enough to keep me going When I get up in the morning rolling I can feel the wonder in these fire skies Yorba Linda won't be spared tonight Rattle in the roses Howling in the hill tops Whip a storm across the wires LaLa's blacked out tonight There are no missteps Only precise strikes There are no backfires Just full steams ahead I think this saw blade is getting hungry I think this axe it wants to chop chop chop Steamrolling Just enough to keep me going When I get up in the morning rolling Steamrolling Just enough to keep me going When I get up in the morning rolling I can feel the wonder in these fire skies Yorba Linda won't be spared tonight Rattle in the roses Howling in the hill tops Whip a storm across the wires LaLa's blacked out tonight

Lost Lake Woods Club It's a long road And any which way you go You take a long walk off a short dock And at the Lost Lake Woods Club anything goes But everything goes when anything goes Don't it though? You take a long walk off a short dock And at the Lost lake Woods Club anything goes But playing jacks in a busy street it don't get you far Do it though? I can feel the restless life I'll give it one more go with the restless life I hope it takes me out on the open road Singing: one more time dance with me brothers Circling the wagons to keep back the trouble It's a long road And any which way you go You take a long walk off a short dock And at the Lost Lake Woods Club anything goes But everything goes when anything goes Don't it though? I can feel the restless life I'll give it one more go with the restless life I hope it takes me out on the open road Singing: one more time dance with me brothers Circling the wagons to keep back the trouble

Oh Baby 03:29
Oh Baby Oh baby it's hard that you love another man Oh baby it's even harder To find out you had yourself a plan Oh woman please step aside Let's try to keep this love alive Cause sometimes it's hard Oh baby it's hard that you love another man Oh baby it's even harder To find out you had yourself a plan Oh woman please step aside Let's try to keep this love alive Cause sometimes it's hard Sometimes it seems that I'm not so pleasing to you The pain in my heart that I feel is for real And there's nothing that I can do Sometimes it seems that I'm not so pleasing to you The pain in my heart that I feel is for real And there's nothing that I can do Cause sometimes it's hard Sometimes it seems that I'm not so pleasing to you The pain in my heart that I feel is for real And there's nothing that I can do Sometimes it seems that I'm not so pleasing to you The pain in my heart that I feel is for real And there's nothing that I can do Sometimes it's hard

St. Francis 03:43
St. Francis Maybe it's not so strange Maybe it's all the truth They say he preached to birds In circles in the woods And they say They say that he prayed with them So they say St. Francis prayed with them Maybe it's not so strange Maybe it's all for real She struck a rock with her cane And healing waters sprang And I drank that water down Now I ain't looking for no crutch But I've found my share of bad luck So I'm gonna drink that water down Cabrini's cave smelled like candles in the air And I'm not afraid But I got on my knees and prayed Maybe it's not so strange Maybe it's all the truth They say the waters at Lourdes Lets a man hang up his crutch on a wall And walk his sick self away Wheelchairs on the walls And hallelujahs for all y'all We gonna walk our sick selves away And they claim them waters can heal a man And who am I to say? I hope them waters can And they claim them waters can heal a man And who am I to say? I hope them waters can

Thank You 03:18
Thank You I know a girl and her name is Sue She does not care just what you do I know a lady and her name’s Christine And she does not care just where you've been Now I ain't talking bout slacking or complacency I'm just talking bout folks letting me be me And I thank you Lord I thank you For making this life easier on me And I thank you Lord I thank you For making this here life just a bit easier on me There's something about it that's home I ain't putting my guard up at all Surfing some Mexican cove Singing: take a maiden home Take me way back home I got a friend and his name is Stu He'll let you talk crazy won't judge on you I know a fella by the name of Fishes And he'll share with you his pirate riches And I thank you Lord I thank you For making this life easier on me And I thank you Lord I thank you For making this here life just a bit easier on me Well there's some that don't I just avoid 'em though I ain't gonna deal with such things

Die Finks 03:19
Die Finks Die finks No matter what you think I can see through your thin veils Your ship is sinking Die finks You can throw the kitchen sink Your fist of straws Ain't shocking when it goes up in flames Papa's got a story It's a bit gory It's painted up in glory And they pass it off as truth Whose high treason Are you trying to please? I ain't pledging no allegiance to any y'all's steeze I ain't no moper My eyes are steely Cause you paved away my dreams Far from stoked sir The laws they choked her Floating on so many streams I wasn't showing up in pictures Did ya think I'd stay the night? Just a specter across lightning glow Did ya think that you could grab it though? Hey who greased the pig? Splitsville dig? Phantom of the block Nessy in a loch I'm not the shepherd or the flock Die finks Well whose kool-aid are you drinking? I ain't gonna be dumbed down By some blank stare old man no how Die finks Thank god for my x-ray vision I can see trough your thin veils Your ship is sinking I think it's scary when you call me civilian

Who you kidding now? Well it's a pity now What a pity now Such a pity now So don't you ever come round Such a pity now What a pity now Such a pity now So don't you ever come round
