American Aquarium - Before the Dogwood Blooms

 
1
Copied!
Kiss me quick honey, can't stay long
By this time tomorrow, I'll be good as gone
You know I'd stay longer, baby if I could
But I got to get to getting while the getting's good

{Chorus}
So I'll see you around this town in a week or two
Running low on money, honey and the bill's are coming due
Just need a couple days until I find a way like I always do
But this I swear I'll be back here
Before the dogwood blooms

See I'm a long haul daddy gotta rig for hire
I get that diesel singing like a gospel choir
Yeah I get it there safe boy I get it there fast
Cash up-front no questions asked

I gotta buddy's gotta friend said he needs some help
And we both know the rent don't pay itself
Deep down I know that I'm above this
Old enough to know better, too young to quit

{Chorus}

{Hook}
Twenty-eight miles from the state line
Blue lights coming in hot behind
They got me once, babe and I ain't going back
So when that siren sounds
Throw that Hamon down
And watch it all fade to black

Kiss me quick honey, can't stay long
By this time tomorrow, I'll be good as gone

Biography

American Aquarium is an American alt-country band that was formed in Raleigh, North Carolina in 2006. Drawing influence from bands like Whiskeytown and the Drive-By Truckers, the band was led by singer-songwriter B.J. Barham. The original lineup included pianist Zack Brown, bassist Bill Corbin, guitarist Ryan Johnson, drummer Kevin McClain, and pedal steel player Whit Wright.

Despite an active touring schedule, American Aquarium also spent time in the recording studio, releasing a pair of independent albums before partnering with Last Chance Records for their 2009 release, Dances for the Lonely. The album was produced by Chris Stamey and featured guest vocals from Caitlin Cary of Whiskeytown.

In 2010, American Aquarium released their fourth album, Small Town Hymns, which further solidified their reputation for gritty, Springsteen-esque anthems. The following year, they released their first concert album Live in Raleigh, as well as their critically acclaimed fifth studio album, Burn.Flicker.Die, which was produced by Jason Isbell.

In 2015, the band worked with producer Brad Cook on their more alt-rock-inspired album, Wolves. They also released a concert album titled Live at Terminal West, capturing a show in Atlanta. B.J. Barham then released a solo album titled Rockingham in 2016, which was well-received by critics.

In 2017, Barham announced that the original lineup of American Aquarium had dissolved, and he would be recording with a new lineup. Despite the changes, American Aquarium continues to perform and release music, showcasing Barham's powerful songwriting and the band's dynamic sound.
