about

Recorded during a European tour in September 2023 between Berlin, Germany and Biel/Bienne Switzerland together with James Vieco and Aaron Feder on pedal steel for a tribute album to Mark Lanegan for the radio podcast Bienvenido a los 90s from Madrid Spain

lyrics

I look at the sky
I see an airplane as it flies
Is this the way they said Jesus came?
Gone through St. Louis
Gone straightaway

And I hear the winter
Will cut you quick
If tears were liquor
I'd have drunk myself sick

Woman are you home?
A house of cards, a frame of bones
Here I am earthly bound
Said hallelujah I'm going down

And the River Jordan is deep and wide
I think I see forever across on the other side

I look at the sky
I see a nightbird as it flies
Over the old bent cherry trees
Shivering in a row

Down here the winter
Will cut you quick
These tears are liquor, oh yeah
And I've drunk myself sick

And the dead of winter
Will cut you quick
These tears are liquor, hmmm
And I've drunk myself sick
