Past The Divide
Lyrics:
Past the Divide kjpeterson ©SLM
I slammed the door and me and Sunny lit out for El Paso
Slipped away that night just like we always planned
I was driving cross the river singing Be Bop A Lula
Had the Cadillac rolling, heading to the promised land
We drove 500 miles on down through the desert
Love made us crazy, we just couldn’t resist
Then we turned a corner that night down in Austin
Sad to say but I ain’t seen her since
She told me she would never leave me
Said we’d always be the best of friends
Sometimes you can’t see what’s coming
Most times it’s too close at hand
Perfect example of a Country song! Excellent!
Oh I liked this one! A good authentic country song. Reminded me a little of John Mellencamp.
I had a few heartbreaks and road trips between Austin and Ft. Worth – your strummin’, twangin’ and two-step beat bring back those days!
Great song.
I really enjoyed that Kenneth.
We’re both two step guys this month😁👍
You create a very engaging sound, Kenneth, with great vocal attack & production. A very accomplished country sound that craves a live audience!
Are you sure you’re not John Hiatt masquerading? I love it.
Cool country song
Just great, I love the gritty vocals too
Thanks to all for lovely comments!
BTW-I never did see her again !
I love this too! Perfect Country folk song. Love your voice and guitar sound. BTW, If you had seen her again, you wouldn’t have written this song…always the glass half full me.xx
Good driving country song. Well done.
