lyrics

Put another log on the fire.
Cook me up some bacon and some beans.
And go out to the car and change the tire.
Wash my socks and sew my old blue jeans.
Come on, baby, you can fill my pipe
And then go fetch my slippers.
And boil me up another pot of tea.
Then put another log on the fire babe,
And come & tell me why you're leaving me.

Now don't I let you wash the car on Sunday?
And don't I warn you when you're gettin fat?
Ain't I a-gonna take you fishin' with me someday?
Well, a man can't love a woman more than that.
And ain't I always nice to your kid sister?
Don't I take her driving every night?
So, sit here at my feet cause I like you when you're sweet,
And you know it ain't feminine to fight.

So, put another log on the fire.
Cook me up some bacon and some beans.
And go out to the car and change the tire.
Wash my socks and sew my old blue jeans.
Come on, baby, you can fill my pipe
And then go fetch my slippers.
And boil me up another pot of tea.
Then put another log on the fire babe,
And come & tell me why you're leaving me.

1992 Austin, Texas

Why 1992? Friendship. Family. The good times and the bad times. But mainly, the year Ren and I first crossed paths... Fast forward 20 years and here we are in beautiful Austin Texas making sweet jams together. And of course, props to our rhythm section, Billy andDan Burnevik. See you soon ... more

NEAPOLITAN (Extended LP 2013)
by Fight Friendly

Blending call-and-response punk sentiment with plenty of Dixie twang and good old fashioned Delta rock n' roll, 1992 offer a refreshing spin on traditional "alt country" fare. -Sonic Vault Austin 1992
