lyrics

Yes I’m goin’ to go down to the shore
Yes I’m goin’ to go down to the shore

And I can see that you lost your way
Yes I can see that you lost your way
But there’s really not a thing that I can say….
‘Cept I’m goin’ to go down to the shore
Yes I’m goin’ to go down to the shore

Well pack up your bags and take a trip to the sea
Yeah pack up your bags—whatever that means
I can taste the blood on your trail
Yes I can taste the blood on your trail
Makes me wanna let out a hound dog wail!
So I’m goin’ to go down to the shore
Yes I’m goin’ to go down to the shore

I didn’t come to dance but to see the shore
I didn’t come to dance but to see what you know
And I can see that you move so free
Yes I can see that you move so free
Cuz you’ve opened my two blind eyes to see!
So I’m goin’ to go down to the shore
Yes I’m goin’ to go down to the shore

Well here come that bee—I feel the buzz of the wing
Yes here come that bee—you’re gonna feel its sting
And I can feel the sting goin’ slowly in
Yes I can feel the sting goin’ slowly in
And I feel my eyes are goin’ blind again!
So I’m goin’ to go down to the shore
Yes I’m goin’ to go down to the shore

Poor Player Detroit, Michigan

Motor City folk rock Americana born of beverages, Poor Player takes to the stage with a hopped up grab bag of American riddles and laments. Saluting the guy flying a sign beside the highway exit, zigzagging through the post-industrial prairie, Poor Player is all about finding the roots beneath the rubble, the green beneath the ruin, the folk in the f*d up, & the beauty in the city gone to seed. ... more
