lyrics

It’s that Petaluma Purple
The clouds are green tonight
And the moon hangs so low
And close to your eye
We’ll drive out past the upkeep
Stand by the side of the road
Keep your keys in the ignition
In case the five rolls

And who needs forgiveness
For what he ain’t already done
We just want safe passage
A memory of fun
A memory of fun

I heard they’re out at the Quarry
But that’s alright
‘Cause the mood is easy
And the feeling is right

The air’s as crisp as an apple
Washed in a snow melt stream
And your breath joins the thick fog
That weaves low through the trees

We’ll crank up the Alpine
Mellow on the ledge
We could lie on the hood
Or just lean on the edge

Beneath that Petaluma Purple
The clouds turn green tonight
And the moon hangs so low
And close to your eye
It’s close to your eye

And I don’t want nothing
But I need a ride
Don’t leave me white knuckling
On the passenger side

His slippery grooves and musicality coupled with his gritty vocals often draw comparisons to his idol, Levon Helm. ... more
