Simon wrote the music and Perkins wrote the lyrics. Read carefully and you’ll see it’s a brief-but-accurate autobiography of a man haunted by the death of his brother and by alcoholism.
The artists who appeared on this tribute album to Perkins were all aware of his terminal cancer when they record...
It was murder
But we got there
Minutes after midnight
Bouncer was a linebacker
Guardin' the door
I said to my drummer
Boogie, don't get nervous
Just get that rhythm goin’ boy
Gotta get them people on the floor
A shadow crossed my windows
Early in the morning
Took me like a prisoner
Fighting in the war
I turned to my wife, Val, my angel
Heaven's in your arms
We're in the hands of the Lord
Rockabilly music
Ain’t nothin’ to it
It’s just a hopped-up country song
Casey Jones rollin' into Jackson, Tennessee
Where I call home
A rich man’s a pauper
In The First Bank of Heaven
I knock on wood for five years
Under the sword
But you keep on pickin’
Rockin’ for a livin’
Heaven's in your arms
I'm in the hands of the Lord
Rockabilly music
Ain’t nothin’ to it
It’s just a hopped-up country song
Rhythm from the delta
Of the muddy Mississippi
In my mouth
I got a new pair of wingtips
Cost me $200
A fresh set of strings
On my Fender guitar
I’m lookin’ at a sunrise
In a cloudless sky
A songbird’s singing
Searching for the Mornin' star
Searching for the mornin' star
Searching for the mornin' star
