lyrics

BROWN
she bust right through that door
flashed a smile like the open sky
sunlight cut like a knife
through that cold november day
brown that’s the color of my true loves eyes
she gave me all kinds of warnings
right from the very start
said i’ll bring you trouble
i’ll bring you all kinds of trouble
brown that’s the color of my true loves eyes
now she’s wrestling her demons
yeah they’re tough little suckers
she pins their arms and rubs their heads
till she gets em to settle down
then at night their heads burst right into flames
she was just a little girl
hand caught in a slamming door
standing there silently weeping
standing waiting and weeping
all alone in this big wide world
joy i heard you calling my name all these years
joy now that i’ve found you
i pray you’ll stay pray you’ll pray you’ll stay
now this one’s looking for jesus
and i think that she’s found him
but he can be tricky
just like all the rest of em
brown that’s the color of my true loves eyes
and they all think that they’re the one
and every one of them’s right
and every one of them’s wrong
‘cause we’re all one and we all ain’t nothing
brown well you know what kind of eye’s she’s got
joy i heard you calling my name all these years
joy now that i’ve found you i pray you’ll stay pray you’ll pray you’ll stay

KING ROPES image

KING ROPES Bozeman, montana

When Dave Hollier spins records at a party, he plays stuff that’s all over the map. The Meters, The Knife, Boston, Bowie, Buck Owens. It could go very wrong. But it doesn’t. Finding the thread that leads from The Cars to The Beastie Boys to Van Halen to Prayers, he tells a long, beautiful, cross-cultural, multi-generational story. Hollier’s band King Ropes is doing much the same thing. ... more
