lyrics

you came to town trapped in the middle of ten years of bad luck with your artificial heart. one good thing will lead to another; before you know it, your life begins to start. a boy and a girl on the streets of minneapolis; it’s not a real big city, but it’ll have to do for a place to get lost. will you come and find me? i promise you won’t miss a thing that you lose. hey, i want to get lost with you. i need a new life, and you could use one too. it seems like every girl i meet has got a mixed up part, and that’s the way you never are. the way you never are gets into my heart. one of these days we’ll find a stack of letters. the ones from you will say, “i feel like falling in love”. i will write back, “you gotta get lost to find me. when we have each other then we’ll know we’ve got enough.”

about

The Scrimshanders came out of Jamaica Plain, MA in 1998. John Magee, Tom Baker, Jamie Griffith and Kevin Scollan grabbed a ... more case or two of Buds and a bag of songs one night; the rest is history. Ace pedal steelman Tim Obetz lent a regular hand. Joby DeCoster took over from Scollan on drums in the early going, and "Longneck" was born.

It took 9 years for the followup to appear. Will there be more? less
