Orphans were asked to contribute a track to a new 'Halloween Compilation' - released by Whiplash Records - this is our cover of the Coops 'Dwight Fry' - Hope you enjoy!
Higher Spirit (The Only One)
boudreau
There’s a higher spirit
Nothing comes near it
I do declare it’s quite a ride
And the heart will chase it
Egos embrace it
You can’t erase it from your life
And when ya can’t escape the rain clouds…
Outta Sight
boudreau
Flip topping, cherry popping
Never stopping to look inside
Wearin’, tearin’ with power steering
And I’m veering off into the night
I disappear outta sight
Short days in so many ways
I’m amazed I’m not sleeping…
to build a fire
lyrics - boudreau
Music - maiorano/boudreau
to build a fire
there's never a plan
just pure desire
and circumstance
touch two wires
leave spark to chance
she's reaching higher
sit back and watch her dance
she said…

With yellow flowers in your hair

The county fair
Was lit up like a caution flare

Rolling down highway one

I wish I had a car
That ran on air, so far
To take me out – when I need to go
I wish I had the cash
Some seem to make so fast
To take you out, when we need it so
And with the travel costs so high
I’m trapped inside this box of mine
Waiting…

Wake up in the morning, I’m still in my cloths
I got one eye open but the other wont go
Barely can remember the night before
Except for how you threw me out the door
Whiskey, Whiskey, Whiskey
I think I’m in trouble again…

Black Widow don’t hesitate
Lock the door, draw the shades
In your web I have been caught
Not enough to fill you up
Leave me a skin
A shell of the man that I was…
When you speak
Random words projected out
When you hear
All ignored except the shout
Claiming that you want to be
One of the last to shake the tree
When you see
And your eyes reflect the past
When you feel
But the question's not yet asked
As…

Oh yeah!!!
Crack some Highlifes and enjoy these jams
Like drinking a beer in front of a campfire.
Fast paced, no lyrics needed.
Clever title! Can't agree with the political message, but it's such a catchy tune.
Great feel good vibe with somber lyrics.
Gritty feel, another shot please bartender!
Love the backwoods feel. Craving the Moonshine.
Excellent!!! I'm clutching my pearls and tapping my foot at the same time.
