Beaten Path

lyrics

Back off the beaten path
The last time that I hit the road
It turned the other cheek
And left me no choice

He who knocked up the pregnant sky
Gave the promise of rain to fall
Was he who found me without coat
Nor dry face

Now I'm countin' all the ways that I've paid for my stay
Countin' all the crows baked in this pie
Changin' all the leaves to colors unseen
Keepin' all the kids happy and dry

I've felt the blows from your waves goodbye
Struck the chords that made you cry
All the hits unheard stacked high on the curb

Now I'm countin' all the ways that I've paid for my stay
Countin' all the crows baked in this pie
Changin' all the leaves to colors unseen
Keepin' all the kids happy and dry
Findin' all the ways to feed
Two birds with one seed

Yeah - I feel the blows from your waves goodbye
(goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye)
But not before I pulled your heart strings and made you cry
(cry, cry, cry)
I fell for punch of drums absurd
Kicked the habit, flipped the bird
Choked the gas and flooded streets with exhaust

Now I'm countin' all the ways that I've paid for my stay
Countin' all the crows baked in this pie
Changin' all the leaves to colors unseen
Keepin' all the kids happy and dry
Findin' all the ways to feed
Two birds with one seed

Karl Blau Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

These records are all over the place. My latest studio record Love & Harm consists of a modern country rock sound featuring the pedal steel of Jon Hyde (Introducing) and amazing players you'd recognize from playing on stage with me. Living in Germantown, Philadlephia, started a recording project called Opal Eskar, check that out too. ... more
