lyrics
We can’t say we’ve just begun
No, this ain’t our first time
We can’t blame it on we’re young
I see those laugh lines
Why don’t you drive by tonight
Come take me for a ride
Let those clock hands spin round round
Let that big sun fall down down
Let me take you on the town
Don’t care what those folks say
I don’t even have one doubt
Wanna kiss that pretty mouth
And then keep on kissin’ south
Cause you’re still the girl I dream about
All these years and I’m not bored
Oh no, baby
Cause oh my lord, here comes my girl
In a flatbed Ford
Why don’t you drive by tonight
Come take me for a ride
Let those clock hands spin round round
Let that big sun fall down down
Let me take you on the town
Don’t care what those folks say
I don’t even have one doubt
Wanna kiss that pretty mouth
And then keep on kissin’ south
Cause you’re still the girl I dream about
Ride, ride, ride
C’mon, cowgirl
Ride, ride, ride
If we don’t then who will?
No, this ain’t our first time
We can’t blame it on we’re young
I see those laugh lines
Why don’t you drive by tonight
Come take me for a ride
Let those clock hands spin round round
Let that big sun fall down down
Let me take you on the town
Don’t care what those folks say
I don’t even have one doubt
Wanna kiss that pretty mouth
And then keep on kissin’ south
Cause you’re still the girl I dream about
All these years and I’m not bored
Oh no, baby
Cause oh my lord, here comes my girl
In a flatbed Ford
Why don’t you drive by tonight
Come take me for a ride
Let those clock hands spin round round
Let that big sun fall down down
Let me take you on the town
Don’t care what those folks say
I don’t even have one doubt
Wanna kiss that pretty mouth
And then keep on kissin’ south
Cause you’re still the girl I dream about
Ride, ride, ride
C’mon, cowgirl
Ride, ride, ride
If we don’t then who will?

Years
by Sarah Shook & the Disarmerssupported by 12 fans who also own “Take Me for a Ride”
There's only one track on this whole album I don't adore. The other nine would be my favorite track on almost any other album they stumbled into. "Years" is like the perfect Best Of album for a band that's been steadily putting out records for decades. 'Caroline Reese and the Drifting Fifth' level stuff here.

Sidelong
by Sarah Shook & the Disarmerssupported by 12 fans who also own “Take Me for a Ride”
So good I've bought it here, on Amazon, and on CD. Saw them live once, when a guitarist was unavailable to tour so they snatched up a member of the Charles Talham band to cover...and they let him jam out, having fully incorporated his funk jazz esque style into their rebel country music. Years into touring, well into a back breaking tour at the truckstops-and-shared-motel-rooms level, and they were still THERE in the moment. Real musicians playing to crowds far smaller than they deserve.
