Who knew that Anaheim had a country bar?
Who knew that Disneyland had a jail?
Who knew a two night trip
Selling Chinese baseball mitts
Would end up in unpaid bail?
Not I
Not me
It seems that Jesus Christ is out to get me
You know
Who did?
Six brown eyes In Bakersfield
All out of tears and looking to move on
It started with my daddy fighting every boss he had
Across the western 48
Kicked out of Garvin County for stealing Chevrolets
At least that’s what my mother said
Don’t call your father daddy
That’s just gross
I’m just saying that it’s gross
And don’t blame him
For the dumb shit that you do
Like hurting six brown eyes in Bakersfield
All out of tears and looking to move on
Who knew that Mickey Mouse had hand cuffs?
Who knew that Donald Duck looked good in stripes?
Who knew that spending life like a 2-bit country tune
Would lose you your kids and wife?
You know?
Who did?
Everyone who has ever and will ever live
From Socrates, to Gary Payton’s son
And six brown eyes in Bakersfield
All out of tears and finally moving on

The best way I can describe these guys is that they're fueled by the life essence drained from the members of ELO, The Beatles, and Steely Dan. Masterful chord progressions, soloing, songwriting...and damn, those drums! Smarmar
