Gatlinburg 02:55
I married a woman once upon eternity  Temporarily she was even married to me  I never saw her coming  Sometimes I miss her like a limb  Love will ride in on a whirlwind  Dip on a whim    Now there's someone in the mirror  Can't say what happened to him  Can't see it getting any clearer with a shave and a trim  Whatever happened to her  Hell, the last I heard  She was bikered up and breeding in whatever's left of    Gatlinburg, Gatlinburg  How it hurt cause I heard her last words  Never going back to Gatlinburg    When the blues hits hard  When the missing kicks in  Still pick up a guitar get a couple licks in  Hope she got something to sweeten her deal  Her person to call when they're serving it raw  And all too real    Once I was her person  That was her for me too  They say ain't nothing for certain   It's certainly true  She left so high in the saddle  That it sounded absurd  She dismounted for another satin bridal gown in    Gatlinburg, Gatlinburg  How it hurt cause I heard her last words  Never going back to Gatlinburg'  Gatlinburg  I hope she got the reigns   And she's spangled in spurs  And riding wild into battle in Gatlinburg   Wild into battle, wild into battle  Wild into battle in Gatlinburg

We used to live on the ledge  In the throws, in the thrill, in the thrall  Now we always on edge  At just the thought of that fall    Some people happy not knowing  Where the honey come from  We see the honeycomb glowing  We hear the honeycomb hum    And honey come home  I ain't doing too good  Honey come home  I looked under the hood    There's a ladder of shadows  Climbing the rope of the blinds  Rorschachs of shadows  Kaleidoscope in my mind    I ain't succumbing to nothing  But I'm getting sick of this dream  Something is coming  It's picking up steam    And honey come home  I ain't doing too good   Honey come home  I looked under the hood  Honey come home  We sin and repent  Honey come home  It don't make a dent    There's a twin in the window  One in the door  Honey come home  This ain't funny no more    We'll lay down in our spilled blood  Like it was spilled milk  Show your pink heart of pale skin  Where you part all your dark silk    Honey come home  I ain't doing too good   Honey come home  I looked under the hood  Honey come home  We sin and repent  Honey come home  It don't make a dent  It don't make a dent   It don't make a dent   It don't make a...

Son Of Mine 02:59
You get to wondering when  If ever, this storm will end  Feels like it might  Never be alright or warm again    Son of mine  You won't always be so bright  Gonna teach you some of my  Small ways to treat the dark and keep it light  'Til something shines  Son of mine, son of mine  Something will shine  Son of mine    In the back of your mind  The monster's already there  But turn round to see what  Turned out to just be a teddy bear  Steady there    Son of mine  You won't always be so bright  Gonna teach you some of my  Small ways to treat the dark and keep it light  'Til something shines  Son of mine, son of mine  Something will shine  Son of mine    I know that shadow  It's the same one I got from my dad  I give you that shadow  That's my bad  My bad    But no son of mine  Gonna have to go alone  I know you're so inclined  Take my advice and wait and see  Shadows outshone  Now run and shine  Son of mine, son of mine  Run and shine  Son of mine, son of mine  Son of mine

about

Cory Branan Nashville, Tennessee

Throughout his decade-and-a-half-long career, Cory Branan has been too punk for country, too country for punk, too Memphis for Nashville, and probably a little too Cory Branan for anyone’s damn good.
