The Elms

The Elms were an American rock and roll band known for their breed of rootsy, blues-based rock, with the essence of the music of the 60s and 70s. Although the band had been in existence since 2000, 2001 saw the release of their first full-length album, with the first musical contribution from Thomas Daugherty on guitar. Thus, 2001 is widely considered The Elms' first fully functional year in existence. Some members reside in the southern Indiana city of Seymour, Indiana. The Elms have drawn stylistic comparisons to The Black Crowes, Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers, The Kinks, and The Beatles. more »

When the week is done and the evening sun
Is sinkin' back into the hills
Well, the neon lights start flickerin' on
And the roadhouse starts to fill

You can bet your ass by ten o'clock
It'll be all that you can take
To squeeze inside with the girls and guys
Who come out to do the shake

Shake it 'til you can't shake it out no more
Do it 'til your feet come off the floor
Put a little shake in your rattle and roll
Shake it 'til you can't shake it out no more

The air is thick with the sweat and smoke
Comin' off everybody's skin
And the rhythm grows in people's bones
Like it's comin' from within

Don't come out here lookin' just to chill
Or to sit down and take a break
The only thing to try 'round here tonight
Is get up and do the shake

Shake it 'til you can't shake it out no more
Do it 'til your feet come off the floor
Put a little shake in your rattle and roll
Shake it 'til you can't shake it out no more

We're all the same when we come out here
Don't matter who your daddy is
What side of the street that you grew up on
Don't count for anything

Come down alone, or with a friend in tow
Just get down here for god's sake
Bring folding money and a pack of smokes
And get down here and shake

Shake it out
