Description:
I believe the lyrics says it all. We have never had such fun recording as we had on this one.....

Lyrics:
Im going out of my mind
Its so frustrating

I|m leaving Kerrville behind
im suffacating

Nothing that ever was worth
Apreciating

I|ve ever found in this town
I*m evacuating

nothing you can say to me
will make make me want to stay
i'm moving away


i've found a place up-state
that seems kind of great
Buffalo Gap. I'm coming to stay!

Im going out of my mind
Its so frustrating

I|m leaving Kerrville behind
im suffacating

Nothing that ever was worth
Apreciating

I|ve ever found in this town
I*m evacuating

The Texas weather is hot
And I like that a lot
So I|ll stay in the state

But Kerville is driving me mad
It's making me sad
I need to evacuate


Im going out of my mind
Its so frustrating

I|m leaving Kerrville behind
im suffacating

Nothing that ever was worth
Apreciating

I|ve ever found in this town
I*m evacuating

Irish pub song &mdash 04/25/06 - 01:53:01 PM
I can see you singing thing song in a dark Irish pub, with lots of pints on the table, sweating red headed drunken mates, balancing arm in arm from left to right, just having tons of laughter and fun. Ahaa, this is a great song man! Enjoyed it a lot.

Nice one .. &mdash 04/25/06 - 02:13:02 PM

I like the way you've captured some of the atmosphere and 'rough and
ready' get it together at the start and left the comments about the lyrics
in at the end.

First thing I listened to here I got a kick out of .. but then again,
I'm new ;oD

More?

Great singalong! &mdash 04/25/06 - 02:15:45 PM
I feel like I am in the pub with you! Lovely vocal performances...like a
Celtic folk incarnation of the Beach Boys.... a great live atmosphere
captured.
Thanks for sharing it with us

great atmosphere &mdash 04/25/06 - 02:35:00 PM
fun bouncy tune, well played to capture a late night sing-along session.
Hard not to sway back and forth to the music. Simple, but catchy.
Welcome to Macjams!

Ev'rybody now! &mdash 04/25/06 - 05:36:50 PM
What a blast, too much fun! It's somewhere between a cowboy lazily singing while riding off into the sunset, and his gathering of tipsy friends later around the campfire. This is the sound of how people unite and synchronize around enjoyable music. Very cool.

Yeehaw! &mdash 04/26/06 - 07:50:13 AM
I listened to this last night and faved it immediately.
Then I found myself humming this for quite a while. That's how catchy
this is. Simple - but really catchy. This track is just fun! Just plain, good
fun!
It really sounds like you had a blast recording this.

Very fun!

Evacuate to Austin &mdash 04/26/06 - 12:47:50 PM
Why Kerrville fellows? I can see coming from Norway it might be a little
hot during the summer. But move to Austin and do what we do. Either
spend the summer indoors in air conditioning or in a spring fed
swimming hole.
Loved the song! The rhyme scheme was fantastic. The ing words had
me laughing and marveling. Great melody and harmony. Mandolin was
the perfect touch! Nothing says Kerrville like a mandolin!

Evacuate to Austin &mdash 05/04/06 - 01:42:15 PM
This is one of those songs that just gets in your head. I find myself singing it
to myself at the strangest moments. Extremely catchy tune. Absolutely great
feeling to it!! How you'll have Texas down so perfectly is beyond me. This
song just oozes Texas and the alternative country scene around here!

Overrun by Kerrs &mdash 04/27/06 - 08:04:29 AM
I love how more and more of you keep singing harmonies. Nice layering,
energy. Which one of you is buying rounds for all the singers? Do you
get to drink everyone's drinks yourself? Is the Spanish at the end a
subliminal political statement? Good luck in Bufffalo Gap, by the way. Fun
tune.

Wonderful. Folksy and embracing. You are all having so much fun that you are going to miss the Greyhound bus. Really enjoyable slice of life. Thank you.
