lyrics

Lonerman
Why do you walk alone?
Walk ‘til you’re lost
Tracing dog tracks home in the dirty snow
When you’ve got loving
Right under your nose?
Heart like a broken toe
Grows back crooked,
But no one will ever know
Ever know

Let me make my apologies
I’ve been on a wild streak
Drunken archers never win
Line up the empties
You’ve got a criminal
Asleep in the alley
No coat on her shoulders
Only the pigeons and sparrows for family

Lonerman
You’re braver than I
I’m a spooked little pony
Cloaked in a caribou hide
But I won’t let nobody
Tie up this wild mind
I’ll graze here a while
Then I’ll run off again
In sudden flight

So let’s take hands
And douse our blazing lives
With all the liquor and love
We can find in the city tonight

In the city tonight
In the city tonight
In the city tonight

about

Long Mama Milwaukee, Wisconsin

Long Mama’s music blisters with the heart and grit of someone who has lost hard, loved harder, and licked her burns until they stung then silvered. In a drafty attic just west of the Milwaukee River she grew up on, you’ll find songwriter Kat Wodtke (Wood-key) raking through notebooks in search of a salve: words, stories, and sounds to temper the dumpster fires we never mean to light. ... more
