lyrics

I saw a prison bus and I thought of you
I wished you were sitting in it shackled and dressed in blue
You’re a grifter and grifters go down hard
They end up in some alley after getting knifed in a bar
You’re a flimflam gal who will always wear secondhand shoes
Drive a borrowed car and will die with a purse full of I.O.U’s

You’re the only woman that’s ever gotten to me
You cut me so deep and now I can’t stop bleeding and
My blood bleeds the darkest blue and
My blood bleeds the darkest

I saw a hearse today, it was shinny gold
I wished you were in it and I could run it right off the road
I’d set up a table with a bottle and rose
And make a toast as it burned in the gully below
You’re a confidence man and they’re the lowest of the low
They cut your heart to pieces while grooving in you so slow
And it feels so good you don’t ever want it to stop… And it feels so

You’re the only man that’s ever gotten to me
You cut me so deep and now I can’t stop bleeding and
My blood bleeds the darkest blue and
My blood bleeds the darkest

You’re the only one that’s ever gotten to me
You cut me so deep and now I can’t stop bleeding

Richmond Fontaine - A Farewell Show
by Richmond Fontaine

supported by 45 fans who also own “My Blood Bleeds The Darkest Blue”

amazing live set. I saw RF many times over the years and saw them on the final tour, although not this gig. this is a classic set of songs and a good representation of them live, my favourite was always the epic Western skyline so shame its not here, but loads of classics to enjoy old and new, I love the long atmospheric lost in the trees/willamette. Willy was always very funny with his stories made up and true. I miss them so much. Philip Pepperell

Don't Skip Out On Me

I love this album. Vlatuin and his band create unsettling soundscapes that vividly render the desperation found in the novel. But don't worry, you don't to read the excellent "Dont Skip Out on Me" to listen to this album. timstoryisamazing

1st time i heard DeathWish, i turned it off. felt rushed, not the Isbell i've come to admire. really grab'd me when i took time to listen on the 2nd try. the writing on these songs stopped me in my tracks more than once. raw talent with just enough polish in the delivery. thankyou Jason + 400 for another keeper swirlingmadness
