new: All Roads lead to Bakersfield: Songs inspired by Red Simpson of Bakersfield


Welcome to the new series, Songs inspired by Red Simpson.  You'll find the latest edition at:

Bakersfield Sound Underground

http://www.bakersfieldsound...

Red Simpson is to truck songs as Johnny Cash is to train songs.  Red is one of the living legends of the Bakersfield sound movement that still resides in Bakersfield and still plays and sings his country songs every week-end at Trout's.  The song posted at Bakersfield Sound Underground (includes sample and full lyrics) is the second song of mine that has been inspired by Red Simpson, the first being There's a Red Truck.  The new song is from the forthcoming CD, Trout's Tall Tales.  Visit the record store at my website for more information:

Here are some of the lyrics you'll find at Bakersfield Sound Underground:

All Roads lead back to Bakersfield

I tried to take a trip


way down to Mexico


I didn't make it


so I went to Ohio


it didn't work out either


got a broken wheel


all roads lead back to Bakersfield



chorus:


all roads lead back to Bakersfield


all trucks


all movin' things with wheels


all cowboys


all truckers


and even thieves that steal


all roads lead back to Bakersfield...
