The Badlees

The Badlees are a Roots rock band from central Pennsylvania formed in 1990. They released several independent albums and achieved national success with their 1995 album River Songs. After recording a follow-up album for their national label, Polydor/Atlas, the company was sold to Seagram’s corporation in 1998, which delayed the release of the album and eventually led to the Badlees return to being an independent band. They have continued to perform and produce albums independently, and released in 2009 the album Love Is Rain. The Badlees and its individual members have inspired, mentored, advised, produced for, and performed with artists throughout the Pennsylvania music scene. more »

There was a man who sang the blues
No one could deny he spoke the truth
He shouted through the microphone
But no one could care less
He lived his life anonymously
Was rediscovered posthumously
Now people quote his words
And talk about his tragic death

(Ain't that the way it goes)
The was a man who told a lie
With a twinkle in his eye
People came from all around
To stand by his side
People will sell their souls away
For a little false hope and some unfound praise
There's always somebody out there
Who is happy to oblige

(Ain't that the way it goes)
Amazing grace to you

He met her in a college bar
Talked his way into her car
She fell in love with him, I guess
The same time he lost interest
Now, he takes a hit off of his bong
While she listens to country songs
Ah, to be young again

(Ain't that the way it goes)
Amazing grace to you

There's a place in my father's home
Where I still go to be alone
Demons visit me there yet
Sometimes we share a cigarette
They laugh and whisper in my ear
Tell me what I want to hear
The devil has so many friends

Amazing grace to you
(Ain't that the way it goes)
