Hard Times
Saw an old friend just the other day
Looking kind of lean, didn’t have too much to say
I asked ‘What happened to that scene you had goin’ on?
All those ladies, that place downtown….’
He said that was then, such a long time ago
Right about now there’s just one thing I know
There’s hard times, hard times on the land today
I saw too hot Sally walking down the street
Asked if I could help get her something to eat
I said ‘What ever happened to those guys crowding round you?
Man, there were so many I could never get through…’
She said ‘That was then, now I’m all alone,
Won’t you help me out, maybe take me home?’
‘Cause there’s hard times, hard times on the land today
Bridge
So let’s raise a glass to days gone by
When we weren’t afraid to learn how to fly
We’d wake up in the morning and the only plan
Was to live each day like the devil’s right hand…
So hang on to that moment and love it while it lasts
‘Cause one of these days you could be living in the past
It happens so quickly, in the blink of an eye
They’ll clip your wings once you learn how to fly
‘Cause there’s hard times, hard times on the land today

Such a Long Way Home

You came into town with a smile on your face
Lookin’ real good, gonna win that race
From those first crazy days to those last nights alone
Oh baby, it’s such a long way home
You liked to run hard, loved to tempt fate
One more night getting back way to late
Now all those good time people are gone
Oh baby, it’s such a long way home
It’s funny how time can turn love into hate
Get back to your people before it’s too late
Always remember, the further you roam
Oh baby, it’s such a long way home
Solo then bridge
Get ready baby, there’s a party tonight
Make that scene and hit it just right
One more time to put that tight black dress on
But oh baby, it’s such a long way home

Tell me Pretty Baby
Why’d you walk out on me
Tell me pretty baby what you say
Tell me pretty baby why’d you close your hearts door?
You’re shuttin’ it down but I still need some more
I’m not the kind of plaything you can just toss away
Uh Uh baby ain’t no way
We gonna sit together, gonna talk this thing through
It ain’t over yet, I ain’t done with you
Someday pretty baby I will set myself free
Someday baby wait and see
Someday pretty baby I will just walk away
Someday will come but today ain’t that day

69 Street Band New York, New York
Originally founded as a way to get Tom Paronis out of the house in 2007, the 69th Street Band has evolved into an "only in New York" outfit that offers up a unique mix of old school Chicago Blues and R&B, some jazz (particularly of the Acid Jazz variety popularized by Hammond/Sax combos of the 1960s), country, rockabilly and bluegrass and an overlay of percolating African rhythms ... more
