Fire it up
For wire
Down home
You hire a little corner
Water in your club till you fire it up and drink it down. Manic kind makes the world go round
Back 40 nightclub bare feet grass rub moon like a disco ball
On little deeper digging mask any dipping long kiss too dark to see it all
Burning time
Let that down home grown smoke take you higher pour a little corn around through the cupboard
Kind of looks like water in your cup till you fire it up
And break it down
That time makes the world go round
Fire it up fire it up simple
Something strong get a little good time on
Jump the wire let that down home grown smoke take you higher
Pour a little corn around through the cupboard looks like water in your cup
And drink it down that kind of makes the world go round
Jump the wire let that down home grown smoke take you higher
Pour a little corn around through the cupboard looks like water in your cup till you fire it up
And drink it down that kind of makes the world go round
Fire it up fire it up fire it up fire it up
So
I got turned around in some little town i'd never been to before
Working my way through a middle of june midnight thunderstorm
There was something in the headlights that stopped me on a dime
When she was scared to death so I said climb in and then she climbed
She was bruised and broke from head to toe with a tear in her bloodstained shirt
She didn't tell the old truth, but she didn't have to I knew what had happened to her
I didn't load her down with questions that girl had been through enough
I just threw it in drive looked in those eyes and asked her where he was
I don't know if he's an angel
Cause angels don't do what he do
He was helping to find a man behind all the whiskey stars I hear
I never found my day of justice but come from a judge under a seat
But I knew right then I'd never get hit again when he said to me
Wait in the truck
Just wait in the truck
Well I knocked and knocked and no one came so I kicked in his double wide door
I let the hammer drop before he got to that 12 he was reaching for
I didn't try to hide my pistol
I didn't even try to run
I just sat on the porch smoking one of his cigarettes and waited for the cops to come
I don't know if he's an angel
Cause angels don't do what he do
He was helping to find a man behind all the whiskey stars I hear
I never found my day of justice but come from a judge under a seat
But I knew right then I'd never get hit again when he said to me
Wait in the truck
Just wait in the truck
Lord have mercy on me Lord have mercy on me
Have mercy on me Lord
It's been 60 months and she still comes to see me from time to time
It was worth the price to see a brighter side of the girl I picked up that night
And I might be here forever
It ain't paradise that's true
But it's a whole hell of a lot better than the place I sent him to
Yeah
Have mercy have mercy have mercy have mercy
Just wait in the truck
Have mercy have mercy have mercy have mercy
Just wait and watch her
Have mercy, have mercy, have mercy
Wait and watch her
Just wait and watch her
In the deep
So you'll get down and dirty
She ain't afraid to work
She leaves a few unbuttoned
She gets the right amount of wrong for me
That's her trash, talking sexy walking
She's so awesome, she's a perfect blend of nice and naughty innocence
With a touch of sin on her own
She's just the right amount of wrong
She gets a little flirty in the back view of a church
And when she's feeling frisky, she won't clean a dirty work
She's like a margarita with an extra shot
And when she starts to lose her cool, it's bound to get real hot
She's just the right amount of wrong
I don't know you and you don't know me
But I've been watching you tonight
Seems like forever
I'd love to get close enough to feel your whisper
And not give anything for us to be together
But there won't ever be that day
Unless I find the words to say
Hey, anyone sitting here, do you mind if I do?
It's been a long day, it looks like you had one too
And that's what I'd say if I had the nerve
Ain't enough courage in the dreams they serve
But what if it turns out the dream ain't really who you are?
So it's better that I love you from across this far
I dream about the day that you'd be my man
And you'd spin me round the floor
When we're swaying to that cover band
In your arms today the dream no more
And you'd dance me home right out the door
Hey, anyone sitting here, do you mind if I do?
It's been a long day, it looks like you had one too
And that's what I'd say if I had the nerve
Ain't enough courage in the dreams they serve
But what if it turns out the dream ain't really who you are?
So it's better that I love you from across this far
I wonder about that scar under your ear
Was it a fight? Of course you win
How long have you had that cross tattoo?
And does your mama think that it's a sin?
Hey, anyone sitting here, do you mind if I do?
I said long too long I think that you have too
And that's what I'd say if I had the nerve
Ain't enough courage in the dreams they serve
But what if it turns out the dream ain't really who you are?
So it's better that I love you from across this far
Across this far
Hey, is Dave from Six Gone Sally Band? Dave, how are you?
How are you, gang?
So how are you doing today, Dave?
Pretty good, gang, pretty good
That's nice to hear
So why don't we get started by getting to know you a little bit
And how you got started in the music industry?
I appreciate that
Well, years ago I formed Six Gone Sally
And it's been a bit of a ride
I mean, we've played locally and regionally
And as we started to get a little more traction
And we wanted to take it a little further
We actually went out last year with Leonard Skinner 38 Special
We just did a show with Artemis Powell and Molly Hatchett
And we're going to do 20 dates here in the next few months with Lone Star
So we're keeping busy
But you know, we were not a local band outside of Pittsburgh
But a band that traveled into the tri-state area
But we've kind of spread our wings
We've gone down as far as Florida and Biloxi
And we're going out to Omaha and a few other places here on this next tour
But that's basically it
That's a seven-piece band
And we're all Southern rock lovers
And we have our own music, obviously
But we do play the covers
We do a variety of Southern rock stuff
Absolutely
And I know you have a new single coming out on May 26 called
Let's Take a Ride
Tell us a little bit about that one
Well, it was written by Chase Bryant and Adam Box
Brothers Osborne and Fort Thurston
Who's out with Chris Cagle and myself
And of the six or seven songs we have coming out in a new release
This is the one we chose for radio
And I think it'll do pretty well
We like it a lot
And we've got some good initial press on it
So we're hoping it does pretty well
If someone was to write a song about you, what do you think that they would take the time to write about?
About the band or myself?
About you?
About me
The drummer that just gets older and keeps pushing and pushing and writing music
And through all the struggles just loves to go out and play
Where do you see yourself and the band in the next couple years?
Where do you want to be?
Well, I'll see how far we can take it
You know, our last single went up I believe to 69 or 70 on the charts
And everyone you want to do a little better
And we want to do some more big shows
Hopefully we can get back out with Leonard Skinner
We're looking forward to the Lone Star stuff
And just keep pushing, keep playing as long as we can
And we have a dual attack of vocals, both from Alan on guitar and vocals
And Laurie who fronts the band
She's an amazing voice, amazing entertainer too
And the rest of us, we're no longer for the ride
But we contribute
What advice would you give somebody that might want to start doing music?
Oh my
That's a really good question
You have to be ready for all the struggles and all the
Depends on what you're trying to do
If you're writing at home and you're happy with that
If you want to write for either your band and you're hoping to get other people to listen to it
I mean, just don't get discouraged
Because for every up, there's 10 downs at times
And it's easy to get discouraged and to pull back
But when that happens, just keep writing
You'd be surprised at what you can write
Yeah, just persevere and don't ever give up what you love
If it wasn't for music, what do you think you'd be doing right now?
Well, I do
A few of us in the band work and of course I have my own company
And I play a lot
And two of us work and the rest of the guys in the band are what you would call pro
I consider myself, I guess, a pro musician
But I do have to work and the rest of the band, you know, they play music to earn their living
Walk me through a somewhat typical day of Dave
Well, I work a lot and, you know, I have my own business, as I said
I'm generally there early in the morning till mid-afternoon
Say four or five times a week we get together, we practice, we play
I have a studio in my home, a soundstage
The band practice is here
We're outside of Pittsburgh
Other than that, I work out a lot
I go to our local YMCA and keep myself in good shape
And, you know, that's basically it
It's not a real exciting life but it's exciting enough for me, you know
So...
If you had an opportunity to duet or collaborate with any singer
That you have not collaborated or dueted with, who would you choose and why?
Well, I'm pretty partial to Ronnie Van Zandt's brother, Johnny
I'm skinnered and I really welcome the opportunity to either write or do anything with the guys there
We actually have a meeting coming up, I'm told, with Ricky Medlock through one of our agents
And, you know, I think the world of where they've been and what they've done
And all the fortune and misfortune, you know
So, you know, it would probably be Johnny, you know
Now, if you had an opportunity to go play anywhere in the world, where would you go and why?
Hmm...
You know what, I was thinking about it the other day
For some doggone reason, I'd like to play out there at Red Rock, you know, in Colorado
I just think that'd be a neat place to play
I've never been there, but my daughter lives out that way
Plus, I keep tabs on the shows that are out there and I think it'd be kind of neat
Dave, is there anything that I forgot to mention that you would like to mention here on the show today?
No, just think when our single comes out, why don't you download it or buy it or take a good listen to it
And I think you'll really like it
And, Kaden, I really appreciate you giving me an opportunity to speak
It means a lot
Dave from Six Gun Sally Band, thank you so much for taking the time to come on The Kaden Gordon Show today's Best Country Mix
We appreciate your time and support, so thank you
Thank you
