The Hackensaw Boys

Bordertown

by The Hackensaw Boys
The Hackensaw Boys

Biography:

The Hackensaw Boys first began playing their joyful blend of old-time and bluegrass-tinged string-band music on the streets of Charlottesville, Virginia in the autumn of 1999. Far from limiting themselves to the old-time canon, however, the Hackensaws have been first and foremost a band of songwriters. Their music, while drawing upon the spirit of the mountains, is sophisticated and informed by the best elements of punk rock and classic country music.

(Play that "G" right into the first verse...)

G
I was up when I put her down

C G
I was thinking 'bout a Bordertown

G
And I sang it out in a song

D G
In a song, Lord, in a song.


It's a shame and it's a crime.
Can't see nothin' eye to eye.
Water's up but the levee's down
In a bordertown, in a bordertown.

A lonely man will settle for
Something less than he adores
And he'll sing it out in a song
In a song, Lord, in a song.

I was wrong and I was right.
And I was thinkin' that I just might
Pack it up to settle down
In a bordertown, in a bordertown.


[Chorus]
C
The difference, I percieve

G Em
Ain't nothing but a dream

G D G
In us all, in us all, Lord, in us all.


From Oregon to Shenandoah
I have ridden the highway roads
And I sang it out in a song
In a song, Lord, in a song.

Every city is the same
And every river has a name
Like the stars shining down
On a bordertown, on a bordertown.

[Chorus]
The difference, I percieve
Ain't nothing but a dream
In us all, in us all, Lord, in us all.
In us all, Lord, in us all.
In us all...
