Southern is How I'll Stay

(Brian Hendrix)

Just a fun, upbeat song about being from the Southern United States. A lot of people in the cities look down on southern life, but we in the south typically want nothing to do with those big, crowded cities.

Yeah, I'm your basic kind of south'ner 
The city slickers don't know what that means
I'm just a-rockin' with my rifle 
And a big glass of sweet tea 
I got a hound dog chasin' a possum 
Gettin' lost in the fields of corn 
A torn, faded flag been flying on our land
Before my daddy was born 

(Chorus) 
I don't want none of your buildings 
And your crowded, shovin' ways 
I like to look up and see the stars
Not a blanket of gray haze 
I like the fresh, clean air, I can drink from the creek 
And it's safe for the kids to play 
Pick-ups, moonshine and girls who'll shoot 
I think southern is how I'll stay 

Man, save me some of that cornbread 
Put it in a brown paper bag to go 
Pick up my baby in her cut-off shorts
And we're off to the fishin' hole 
We ain't stayin' out too late tonight
Gotta get our butts to church 'fore noon
The women teachin' children "Jesus loves me" 
And warnin' them he's coming soon 

(Chorus)

Things I Never Did

By Brian Hendrix

I imagine we all have regrets. And I imagine that these regrets compile as we age. I imagine myself being a much older man and looking back on all those regrets that stack up. This just got me thinking about a big regret for most people being missing out on love. This is a simple song, though it means a lot for many people, I'd guess. We have to take our shot while we can, or we might miss it. It's about a man never telling a girl how he felt, but it could easily be switched around to be applicable to anyone.

This is Love

By Brian Hendrix

A folk song that's very upbeat in rhythm with a choppy cadence that flies right through the verses, though it still has a profound meaning in terms of how it touches on love and how little time we all have to feel it. This one is great as just an acoustic song, in my opinion. It's how I play it.

All the Time

By Brian Hendrix

This is more of a modern spin on a classic tale of a guy who's heartbroken without the love of his life. Doesn't have to be that gender-specific. Switch it up and it works well for anyone who's ever lost someone they truly loved. Sometimes things strike us a bit on the weird side, because we miss them all the time. The bridge is meant to bleed into the chorus in one-party harmony. I hope that comes through in a lyrics-only format.

Songs About Women

By Brian Hendrix

For male singer-songwriters, likely in every genre of music, we find that a lot of our songs are about women. It just came to me to write a song about how there are so many songs about women. I think it came out pretty catchy and poignant in places. And it's true: No matter your situation, there's a song about women for you.

Afraid

By Karianne Gabaldon

When you lose all control of your life, and you’re so self destructive that you’ve become afraid of yourself. You don’t want to be though. But you can’t control it anymore. Self sabotage is in your cards.

Wir müssen weinen, Martina (Don´t cry for me Argentina)

By Georg Wagner (GeWa)

Eigentlich geht es bei diesem Text um Mammographien, weibliche Brüste und den Abschied von einer lieben Kollegin. - Aber das merkt fast keiner!

Manchmal und Oft

By David Bukovic

Manchmal und Oft beschreibt das Leben, wie es ist. Egal was um einem herum so passiert, man muss richtig und falsch erkennen und auf dem Weg bleiben. So kommt es auch vor, dass man sich selbst neu kennenlernt. Ausserdem ist da noch jemand der uns hilft.
