lyrics

Well they bombed you in the borough, back in 1952
And when a nation lost control we turned our lonely eyes to you
And you taught us how to feel like, the luckiest men on earth
Loving you's what we're taught to do from the moment of our birth

Oh tonight, oh tonight I'm gonna call my own shot
I'm gonna give this city of lights everything I've got
Whoa tonight, gonna see how much fight I've left in me
And I ain't going down without one last swing
Because when the world comes down on you
There's only one thing you can do
Oh tonight I'm gonna put my faith in Pinstripes

They say the ghosts they made it, they crossed the street into the park
And they're watching us like angels as The Captain leads the charge
And The Creatures come from the shadows, and call out to the night
And when The Voice of God reigns down it brings a city back to life

Oh tonight, oh tonight I'm gonna call my own shot
I'm gonna give this city of lights everything I've got
Whoa tonight, gonna see how much fight I've left in me
And I ain't going down without one last swing
Because when the world comes down on you
There's only one thing you can do
Oh tonight I'm gonna put my faith in Pinstripes
Oh tonight I'm gonna put my faith in Pinstripes

Nobody lives forever, but some things never die
Like when the trumpet cries to Ol Blue Eyes
Or that fence up in the sky

Oh tonight, oh tonight I'm gonna call my own shot
I'm gonna give this city of lights everything I've got
Whoa tonight, gonna see how much fight I've left in me
And I ain't going down without one last swing
Because when the world gives up on you
There's only one thing you can do
Oh tonight I'm gonna put my faith in Pinstripes
Oh tonight I'm gonna put my faith in Pinstripes
Oh tonight I'm gonna put my faith in...

about

Loners Society image

Loners Society Charleston, South Carolina

Loners Society is the brain-child of Unusual Suspects and County Line Strangers’ primary songwriter/singer, Matt Megrue. While both of Megrue’s previous projects primarily emphasized their collective punk/country upbringings, the new EP from Loners Society takes that same honesty and sprinkles in a little bit of soul in what Megrue describes as, “southern-fried, indie rock and roll." ... more
