…look who’s lurking around here again…
This is a song from last year that I never posted here,
Usuing the “Southern Rock” band I was thinking of Tom Petty
and the phrase that fit perfectly early on was “hasten down the wind”
I knew that wasn’t my original idea but couldn’t remember who came up
with it, a little research and I rediscovered a really cool song from Warren Zevon
called “Hasten Down the Wind”.
I always intended to re-record this to polish it and make it better,
just never got around to it. I don’t have any new songs, haven’t written anything
in over seven months…you’re welcome.
Enjoy it, rip it, critic it,
Thanks for the listens and comments,
Kenny

All There Is
© 2017 Kenny Leverett

On an old dirt road
From an Arkansas shack
One day she started walking
And she never looked back

Well she didn't tell her Mama
Didn't think that she'd be missed
Just slipped on out the back door
Didn't even blow a kiss

Cause it's more of where you're going
Than all of where you've been
Gotta keep on moving forward
And hasten down the wind

Well she knows a lonely boy
Who's angry at this world
And she gets her life all tangled up with his
And she's thinking to herself
As they drive off thru the dust
Maybe this is all there is
She thinks maybe this is all there is

She remembers as a girl
Waking from dreaming in the night
One day my life will all work out right
Now she's thinking to herself
Driving south thru the rain and mist
Maybe this is all there is

He left her standing by a Quik Stop
In a run down Texas town
Said he's going to California
And he'd hate to drag her down

She just crossed the street to a cafe
Didn't even blow a kiss
Started serving truckers coffee
Thinking maybe this is all there is

She says maybe this is all there is
