about

I spend my days in the naugahyde bars
I ain't got no tattoos; I just got scars
Well they're just little souvenirs of where and when
I hit rock bottom then I did it again
I guess they could be wounds that time won't heal
But I don’t care; I'm just watching the wheels

I got bad credit and low interest
I wouldn't have nothin' if it weren't for my friends
Well I ain't lazy; I'm just indifferent
I'm hanging around to see how it ends
I'm just hanging around to see how it ends

I spend my nights in a worn-out shoe
Waiting around for something better to do
I got a friend on Abbot-Kinney and we climb up high
Looking out on Venice on someone else's dime
He says that ambition is a friend and a curse
But you can find your freedom when it can't get any worse

I got bad credit and low interest
I wouldn't have nothin' if it weren't for my friends
I ain't crazy; I'm just indifferent
I'm hanging around to see how it ends
I'm just hanging around to see how it ends

I got no faith in the wisdom of men
They make the same mistakes over and over again
Now you can't tell me I ain't doin' fine
With a little bit of whisky or a little bit of wine
This story's been told a couple million times
But the only thing that's different is that this one's mine

I got bad credit and low interest
I wouldn't have nothin' if it weren't for my friends
Well I'm world weary; I'm indifferent
I'm hanging around to see how it ends
I'm just hanging around to see how it ends

The Sawdust Brothers Nashville, Tennessee

Once upon a time in Nashville, there were three young men who played in a band. They enjoyed themselves & accomplished many things before going their separate ways, to seek their fortunes in the Wide World. They vowed that one day they would combine their talents & share what they had learned. Now, via the power of the Information Super-Lonesome Highway, The Sawdust Brothers have been reunited. ... more
