Liner Notes

A song I wrote about my first trip to Heathens Homecoming in Athens, but really just about the magic of live music. . Try to spot all the DBT references

Lyrics

Making my way down 85, got Athens on my mind Counting down those mile signs, gonna make up for lost time I'll be in Georgia by midnight, so leave on that porch light This Heathen has got it made for the first time in his life

Been working hard for my pay, now my time has come Missed many nights working late, soon I'll have some fun This Weekend's the Night in The Dirty South, we'll have a Big To-Do A rock show at The 40 Watt, Motherfuckers, come on through

I'll see you at the Rock Show We'll scream and dance and sing I'll see you at the Rock Show Where the music will set us free

You're never strangers if you like the same band So come with me, celebrate, together we'll make a stand A radical display of art and community The music washes over us like Buckets of Mercy

I'll see you at the Rock Show We'll scream and dance and sing I'll see you at the Rock Show Where the music will set us free

We will leave our problems at the door Pray at the church of revelry on the dance floor Shoulder to shoulder, together for one night Family we found cheering by our sides

I'll see you at the Rock Show We'll scream and dance and sing I'll see you at the Rock Show Where the music will set us free

I'll see you at the Rock Show We'll scream and dance and sing I'll see you at the Rock Show Where the music will set us free

Brings me back to traveling to concerts as a teen! I love the chorus. I'll definitely be at your next Rock Show!

Anthemic chorus! "Church of revelry" sounds like my kind of church haha. Rock on

i'm not super familiar with DBT, but I'm deeply appreciating these lyrics, many of which made me giggle

I love that you sent in this dispatch from the road. How about a summer rock & roll road trip recorded in a similar manner???

Strong strumming, sir! Cool vocal effect at the end of the chorus where you go up when we think you're headed down. Nice job.
