about

Instrumental recorded and played by Tom Boblet of New Mexico. I wrote the song and lyrics, sang the vocals and engineered the final track. The lyric started out as a song about an American hobo but got darker and morphed into a song about the Angel of Death. Yep that's the way me mind works sometimes!

lyrics

TEN AFTER MIDNIGHT A TRUCKSTOP PARKING LOT
SOMETHING DON’T FEEL RIGHT I CHECK ON WHAT IGOT
TWO ARMS TWO LEGS AND AN ACHING HEAD
MY HORIZON’S SO FAR AND THE WORLD IS SO WIDE
CAN’T FIND A TRUCK TO GIVE ME A RIDE

A STRANGER ON THE SIDEWALK A FACE IN THE CROWD
BETTER HURRY ON BY I CARRY YOUR SHROUD

ETERNAL MIDNIGHTS JUST DRIFTNG AROUND
AIMLESS I WANDER FROM CITY TO TOWN
NO COINS IN MY POCKET A HOLE IN MY SHOE
MY WORLD’S AN OYSTER SOMEBODY ELSE ATE
I RIDE THROUGH THE NIGHT TO BRING YOU YOUR FATE
