Broken Rodeo

Late night Ferris wheel lighting up the sky
Mid-September not a cloud in my eye
Bull riders and barrel girls race for the dough
Emcee call their numbers out and the clown steals the show
At a broken rodeo you'll find a wholesome child
Young girl from the year before strolling behind her son
Baby in a carriage and she's waiting on another one
Old sneakers on her feet replace the boots she used to wear
Time passes by to quick when you're waiting for the fair
Shiny buckles, dusty boots
Looking for something, finding roots
At a broken rodeo you'll find a wholesome child
Young kids on the rides screaming with no fear
Older kids are in the tent and they're lining up for beer
Parents gather with watchful eyes talking up a storm
Older folks sitting on the benches remember when they were young
Shiny buckles, dusty boots
Looking for something, finding roots
Young eyes and grey hair, amazed at this ride
At a broken rodeo you'll find a wholesome child
At a broken rodeo you'll find a wholesome child
At a broken rodeo you'll find a wholesome child

I'm Alright

I’m alright, I’m alright now
Getting better all the time
It’s been a bit rough for the last little while
But I’m finally feeling fine
I tried so hard to look forward
After spending so long looking back
When I think about all the time that we had
A man can’t ask for more than that
No, a man can’t ask for more than that
So take a walk in my footsteps
Like I tried to walk in yours
I spent my best days looking through windows
And my worst nights walking out doors
It used to be so far on the horizon
Now it’s almost in the palm of my hand
And when I finally hold it I’m not sure what I’ll do
But when it comes I’m sure I’ll understand
So take a walk in my footsteps
Like I tried to walk in yours
I spent my worst days looking out windows
And my best days working outdoors
I’m alright, I’m alright now
Getting better all the time
It’s been a bit rough for the last little while
But I’m finally feeling fine
So take a walk in my footsteps
Like I tried to walk in yours
I spent my best nights holding you closer
And my worst nights pacing these floors

Rain on the wind
I can’t believe it’s gonna pass us by again
Hay in the field
Turning brown its gonna be another hungry year
I got cows in the pasture, I got sheep in the pen
Chickens feeling all cooped up but no grain in the bin
No fuel in the tank, water wells going dry
Farm bills keep coming in no matter how hard we try
Oh my
Pain in different ways
Sometimes it comes and goes, sometimes it stays for days
Stay until we go
We’re running out of time before we got to hit the road
Oh no
No cows in the pasture, no got sheep in the pen
No chickens layin’ today, they’re gone to pay the rent again
No Chevy in the shed, water wells gone dry
Farm bills keep coming in and mama sets down to cry
Oh my
Main street in town
Gusty and ghostly ain’t nobody left around
Day after day
Everything starts crumbling down as everybody else moves away
Hey Hey
Ain’t nothing in the pasture, ain’t nothing in the pen
Ain’t nothing need coopin’ up, ain’t nothing more to say, my friend.
Ain’t nothing in the pasture, ain’t nothing in the pen
Ain’t nothing need coopin’ up, because this right here’s the end
Ohh

You've Changed
03:48

I believe in a certain way, a certain order to things
And I believe that sometimes things get turned around
But most of the time, you can depend on things to be where they should be
That’s why I'm so surprised to find you on the other side
You've changed, you've changed
Your venom hits me hard, oh
You’ve changed
I've known you all of my life, I've been inside your mind
And I know things that you hide away, yeah, yeah, there hard secrets to keep
And I know what you do and what you want to do are two different things
Yeah they're good and bad, sometimes you've got to choose which one fits you better
Cause you've changed, you've changed
My memory's forsaken me, it seems to me you've changed
You’ve changed
Remember when we were two-of-a-kind, we were Siamese
Spending our time travelling just to get away, I really wanted just to get away
You went off and took a high road and left me here to find my own way
But guess what I found along the way? I found myself...at least I think I found myself
Cause I've changed, I've changed
My shadow it surprises me, look how big that I can be
I've changed
Can’t you see what I've become?
Suddenly it seems I've come undone

fuller hull recommends:
It brings me deep into an honest conversation about myself and my role in the world around me. The tension between his voice and instruments is perfect.

The honesty and imagery speckled throughout his songs is an aspiration. Although I missed out on his early music when I lived abroad, listening to it now gives me cathartic retrospection.

In Event of Moon Disaster
by Mister K
The teacher-come-balladeer is something that speaks to me. As a "professional" in my (non-music) career, the creative growth of one's storytelling and being able to share it with others is a gift.
