Lyrics

The Boombox cassette tape released outta Durham has a hit song about my hometown

For the past 20 years, when I'd go out touring, the audience asks me if I know about the

first track on the Boombox cassette tape from Durham

The truth is I know it by heart, although I don't think of it as an influence, I'm fluent


in talking about how it's actually not

It just sounds that way when he sings the name of my home

Oh, I was up Thursday night, and I started counting the hundred or so songs I've made

Career engineers, pristine vintage gear, and yet nothing comes near the impact of that


magical Boombox cassette tape reissued in Durham

Was yelled at the stage Friday night, like a thunderstorm pouring on low elevation

My thoughts, they dropped out of my mouth as I yelled in the mic

Oh, my voice, it shakes


And my glasses raise as I pinch the bridge of my nose

Oh, it's well worth remembering, we are all persons

People are human, humans are broken and flawed

But you mentioned a goat on a mountain, hailing to Satan


He ain't from Texas at all, at once I'm frozen

And after several moments I open my mouth, and these words fall out

Oh, I cannot complain if you don't know my name, but you know of the place where I'm found

At the end of the day I am grateful to play, there is so much to gain anyhow


How much time do we waste comparing our place to the places of those in the crowd

When the Boombox cassette tape released at a Durham, will be here when we're in the ground
