about

A driving rock song about life as a musician in a bar band.

lyrics

I've been walking the straight and steady
Teary eyes, bloody fingers, sweaty clothes
Down the winding road

Sun went down and the wind blew heavy
If it blew harder I think I'd lose control
But I don't know

I'm going till the sun comes up and I'm staying till the bar's about to close

I took a drive by my alma mater
Where I fell in love with the gas mans daughter
Oh, the Jersey Coast

Days are long and the nights grow hotter
I can't live on bread and water
No, but beer and toast

I'm going till the sun goes up and I'm staying till the bar's about to close

I take this path for just where it gets me
I'll ride the bus till where it lets me go
High or low

I'm going till the sun comes up and I'm staying till the bar's about to close

about

Cranston Dean Atlantic Highlands, New Jersey

If you’ve never heard Cranston Dean perform before, you’re robbing yourself of an amazing experience. Dean’s voice takes you back to a time when the singer/songwriter played the bars of Asbury during the heydays of The Circuit, and blew people’s minds with their lyrical poetry.
