lyrics

cruising
words and music copyright 2020, Cynthia Marchant

in that 67 GTO speeding down the river road
those hairpin turns and tires that burn
living was easy on the edge of living
no turning back and no forgiving

we were broke not broken
drinking jack tires smoking
never ending summer nights
somewhere between wrong and right

on the levy under landing planes so close taking breath away
Venus and Mars under the stars
living was easy on the edge of living
there was no turning back and no forgiving

we were broke not broken
drinking jack Tires smoking
never ending summer nights
somewhere between wrong and right

some memories fade
but it feels like yesterday
through the streets of Little Rock
once or twice around the block
we were cruising with the Dead and Bad Company
Bobby, Jeannie, Ricky and me

we were broke not broken
drinking jack Tires smoking
never ending summer nights
somewhere between wrong and right

about

Cynthia Marchant Chicago, Illinois

Cynthia's music rises from southern roots and life's many ups and downs, with inspiration from childhood memories; love lost, found and imagined; dreams and journeys of body and spirit. Her smoky, hypnotic voice embraces a depth of emotion, and the evocative, gritty songs weave stories that are haunting and deeply reflective.
