lyrics
Brownsburg
He left town and headed for the woods to find
A plot of land, it was getting pretty close to time
To settle down, meet a gal and build a home
Something he could take pride in and call his own
His brother from his hometown said “Man you done it right”
“Would you mind if I came over and gave your place a sight?”
“You’re looking mighty healthy, and while I admire your plan”
“I never really took you for a small town man”
Brownsburg, oh Brownsburg
I had not understood
That living such a simple life
Could do me so much good
There’s something bout the small town charm that
quenched a mighty thirst
And someone introduced him to the preacher at the Church
“Do you know your savior and are your sins made right?”
“With help from the Lord I’m sure you’ll make it all right”
Brownsburg, oh Brownsburg
I had not understood
That living such a simple life
Could do me so much good
Now he’s got some spare time and he’s read a book or two
He may not be an ‘learned’ man, but honest one its true
Work is always steady and never hard to bear
He wouldn’t have it any other way or anywhere BUT
Brownsburg, oh Brownsburg
I had not understood
That living such a simple life
Could do me so much good
Hearing this was like discovering Desire, or London Calling for the first time. Derivative yet original, the songs are immediate and the melodies will get stuck in your ear for days. tideracer
Gonzo. Passion. The Ming Vase. Haunting and beautiful. Every listen brings a new favorite.
Do something like this again, Miss Emma. Please let the answer be yes. Please let the answer be yes! alien9

Courtney has really delivered a gem in this record. This collection of songs feels tight and cohesive. Highlights for me are "How Quickly Your Heart Mends" and "Table For One". What has always struck me about Courtney's music is that the melodies sound like the lyrics feel; from the arrangements to the delivery, you won't be disappointed! David Johnson
