Band of Horses - Laredo (Lyrics)

[tzittnan]

Lyrics correction...

"...And can you see the world through a window?

Are you having troubles in droves?

Oh, *IT AIN'T* the worst thing I could do

Is get back home to you

I put a bullet in my Kia Lorenzo

A kitchen knife *UP TO* my face

Throw me in the deep of Jenner Lake

Believe me when I say..."

[urmombentover]

Good song.  Reminds me of home

[TheMandalachild]

The harmony of this song is everything that is right in this world

[sweetrage425]

This strikes home. :]

[matthew2011able]

"A kitchen knife fucked in my face". ???????. Thanks for the upload. This song is awesome, but I think you may wanna double check some of the lyrics.

[MeganHLTX]

This is really weird, the first time I ever heard band of horses was when I looked up St. augustine, their song st. agustine came up. (its the school I go to) and then, the second song was Laredo, which is where I was born!

[freehickeys]

How the hell are there 10 people in the world who dislike this song?

[adzopo]

sounds like archers of loaf and guided by voices, cool

[gavrisr]

[galant903]

@atlantaplowden The more lovers they get ...the more haters they will have .,and we don't want that ...G song <3

[Loveflower74836]

@atlantaplowden it might be because you and i havent spread the word of Band of Horses enough yet!

[TheCanadianGuy25]

@atlantaplowden cause if they were you wouldnt like them anymore

[iselinia]

Gawd, I love this song!

[robnobilia]

Awesome song. Very catchy. Sad, melancholy. Pulls on the heart strings.

[spd13062]

I've had this song stuck in my head for a week straight now...normally that would drive me insane, but this song is so good it hasn't bothered me a bit. Sort of reminds me of 1970's Badfinger, and that's not such a bad thing.

[theresult23]

God Fucking Dammit!!! I live in Norway and they played at a festival here yesterday!!! And i COULD NOT GET FUCKING TICKETS!!!

[billingssarah]

Anyone who thinks this song is good should watch the Live version on Q TV's channel. MUCH MUCH better!!

[LetOurLittleLadyTalk]

An okay song.

The distortion is annoying though.

It's a decent effort, I think.

[Drama026]

awesome song. awesome how its cut off 2 sec early.

[janetabbey]

another good song -- they are coming to HOB in october.

[InvisionThat]

This is what music should be like. Not some BS screamo that's in drop A or plays everything in Whole Tone Diminshed scales...

[biggles0212]

They kick ass

[alley848]

They rocked splendour inthe grass 2010!

[alley848]

i wore my horse sloppy joe to watch Band of horses at splendour in the grass qld august , UNREAL

[cgrabs03]

the kind of song i haven't heard in a while. love it.

[f0kUbolonybatchy]

I thought it was "a kitchen knife up to my face" not "a kitchen knife fucked to my face"

[loveyousomucho94]

man, this song is just fucken amazing;D

[Xz0mb1eHunt3rX]

Heard this song on Comcast's Music Choice Adult Alternative channel and jus had to find it. It's amazing, there's actually music that's good returning to this century. Now I gotta get this on my iPod, possibly buy the album, and show it to all my friends who think I don't listen to any of today's music, that I'm stuck in the 90's lol. Thxs for the upload haha. =)

[72swill]

I just discovered this band.. And TOTALLY love them.. xxx

[GeekD0wn]

Why does the thought of drinking come up in my head when I listen to this song.. LOVE IT!

[Distancian]

Not my kind of music

[venten100]

i really love the guitar thing from 2:13 to 2:42 :D AWSOME :3

[rupertthebear]

[nightwish1951]

[IsauraYoValeria]

Ahhhh I love this song <33

[poipuboy]

[archounduser10]

laredo texas is my home town i dont know if this is the laredo they are signing about lol

[twinoak170]

Oh yeah, this is good.

[666yousuck666ha]

Saw them last night, they were the best performers I've ever encountered.

[sjisjin]

OMG what a great song... I just cant get it out of my head... :)

[Dakfreak]

Fantastic song, I just heard this band's music for the first time a few days ago. They remind me in a most positive way of Neil Young and the Crazy Horse, for example, 'Powder finger' song from the electric side of the ' Rust Never Sleeps' album.

BOH, I wish you all the best. Bands like you bring back the faith that good music is not the thing of the past. Monday morning, I go straight to the CD shop and will buy the new album. :))

[rockypc24]

so melodic

[DhoNuts]

Good song , but , WTF IS A KIA LORENZO??

[kohlb69]

@DhoNuts a car dumbass

[wendyokoopa64]

the whole album is fantaastic!!

[JChild4909]

I heard this on the radio yesterday and the refrain stuck with me. But once I got I couldnn't remember it! Thankfully, my brain stored it and I woke up this morning with it running through my mind. Looked up the lyrics and here I am! Love this song!!!

[MrBushytop]

One of my songs of the year. Terrific stuff

[basby76]

@MrBushytop I would have to agree totally with you on that, but go one step more, and say this IS the song of the year!

[ChicaCatorce0595]

i fricken loveeeeee this song. its so awesome

[joseitsme]

90's Alternative Music is BACK!!!!!!!!!

[nukemnow]

@joseitsme That's exactly what I thought when I first heard this band. I hope you're right!

[ftdwiw09]

@joseitsme

Indeed!! My 1st thoughts exactly when I heard this song- 90's alt-rock at its finest! And damn is it sounding GREAT!!

[ednakazuya12]

@joseitsme YEs!!!!finally

[delta9999]

@joseitsme please don't label this as such

[joseitsme]

@delta9999 What are you talking about?? I'm not labeling them. They actually sound alternative bands from the 90's. They obviously got infuluenced by the pixies, the lemonheads, pale saints, ect. This kinda has that shoegaze feel to it.

[Cmontanez09]

@joseitsme literally what you described, is the definition of "labeling"

[RhettAycock]

@joseitsme You should check out the Connells. They are from NC. Great alternative band from the 90's.

[BananaHurricane]

@joseitsme You're so right. This really has a great 90's feel to it. It kind of reminds me of a Lemonheads song.

[DiabloSobreRuedas]

@joseitsme you absoluty right,the video and music its 90'2 100%gretings from mexico

[JohnnyRockwell]

@joseitsme oh really? in what way?

[ktube83]

HOLY CRAP, an audio orgasm. . . haven't had one in a little while. Summer jam with some peanut butter!

[visitinguncle]

It's Jammer Lake (which is in Minnesota, where Ben wrote the song). I've heard the song several times live, including quieter acoustic versions, and you can clearly make out the 'mm' in Jammer Lake. By the way: killer song. Gorgeous.

[Helloperson2796]

I love this song!!!!

[mystro810]

just heard this tonight at a bar, didnt know who it was. Should have known it was the best modern band in the land. gotta run out and get this album. this song sounds great

[estsss]

SHIty copy

[xpopo77]

love this band

give me thumbs man if u do

[EPICSPONGEMAN]

love this song



[Emehms]

Seeing these guys on July 14th in Columbia, MO. It's gonna kickass. New album still hasn't grown on me all the way yet but I do really like this song.

[rutroh]

@Emehms theyre gonna sound great at Blue Note. Nice venue for them. I cant wait. Driving out from KC.

[ForLawlz]

by the way in your lyrics.... it's not "A kitchen knife fucked my face" nice try though. It's "A kitchen knife up to my face."

[keleeemo]

@ForLawlz

Yeah brought back some memories.

[wisheywashey]

this is a load of bollox, it just cuts off at the end

[flibly]

cuts off at the end...

[freefromself]

They have yet to let me down...

[andyeli8]

Great song. Searched for one hour trying to find it. Thanks 101.9 RXP. Great search engine.
