about

(McKernan/Abel) © 2016 Hell In A Handbasket (ASCAP)

lyrics

Another night the cars scream past, on the 101
Tail Lights blazing comet tracks, she sticks out her thumb
Two pairs of jeans and a wrinkled blouse, in an old knapsack
It don’t matter now just where she goes, just as long as it ain’t back

Breakers crashing on the beach, dancing in the sun
Three years gone to hell and back, why walk now if you can run
Got a friend up Frisco way, says come stay with me
Phones shut off and nobody's home, ain’t got no place else to be

Put your head down and soldier through
As the lies pile higher you can't see the truth
Everybody wants to buy a piece
but you ain't got nothing left to sell
It was s'posed to be different this time
Another man never learnin’ how to walk that line
The only thing that you can trust is you

The moon so high over Ventura again today
Headed south to that Hollywood freeway
Got a message from a buddy sayin call if you're around
Maybe it's time she up and left, this whole goddamn town

Running harder just to make the gate, got a flight out east
Floor to crash on for a couple days, time to grab a drink at least
Starts up all over again, no place to call home
Airport full of bodies, but she never felt so alone

The 44 Territories Detroit, Michigan

The 44 Territories know they are different. In taking their interpretation of Americana music – heartfelt lyricism, twangy guitars and evocative imagery – and marrying it to a distinctly Detroit rhythm and drive, they believe they have created something special. Now, they look to prove it, on record and at shows. ... more
