He found it in the Badlands
Sparkling in the desert sand
Just an old shot glass
My friend
Told me bout a movie star
Met the reaper didn’t get that far
And all his Hollywood buddies
Met at the place he crashed his car
And they all gathered in the sand
Each had a shot glass in his right hand
They were drinking coke and crown
They held it up and drank it down
I’ve got a feeling you’ve been here before
Was it you who met the reaper at the door
Every night you saddle up that white horse in your dreams
Put on your long tall hat and chase your memories
I’ve got a silent movie
Playing in my mind
It’s been tainted
By the stains of time
I’ve been all around the world
And I’ve seen all kinds of signs
Never comprehending
All the things I’ll never find
Every time I hold it up
I’ll toast the memory
Every time I drink it down
It knocks me to my knees
Sparkling in the desert sand
Just an old shot glass

very good song I for one am glad your putting your music up here we need more of this in the amp.
this is well writtin, sung and played , recorded the mix is just a little flat but it;s still good .

Levels are a little off for me between the lead and rhythm guitar. Think the rhythm should come up a little and the lead be toned down a touch when the vocals are the focal point. Other than that this is a great song. The lyics are good and your vocals are superb. Really enjoyed this.

I am a big fan of this style. You have an awesom voice, I would love to hear it more pronounced/emphasized on some parts. Glad I saw this one.

Yahhh, I really like this song so far... only about 50 secs into song. Ohhh, yahhh, nice harmony. Good story to follow for the listener. I'd like to hear a more cleaner solos, not so choppy; sound a bit too jumpy for the song.
