lyrics

Me and my guitar are crossing the border. Gonna meet up with a couple of friends down by the river. First time out of the state to play my own songs for people that I've never met. With hours to go is it too early to be nervous?

If I'm a name on a flyer in a rundown venue I wouldn't have it any other way. If I'm the pennies spent to get you into the show I hope you get to hear your favorite band play. When the music's over and it's time to go home I just wanna hear you say: “This night was worth it!”

Me and my guitar are moving on after a wonderful guerrilla show on the Saskatchewan. I leave this city broke but full of memories of people I won't soon forget. With hours to go before our next stop in Alberta.

If I'm a name on a flyer in a rundown venue I wouldn't have it any other way. If I'm the pennies spent to get you into the show I hope you get to hear your favorite band play. When the music's over and it's time to go home I just wanna hear you say: “This night was worth it!”

Me and my guitar are homeward bound. Gonna meet up with a bunch of kids at The Underground. Canada was great but now I'm gonna play for all of my inspiring friends. With hours to go is it weird to be this excited?

If I'm a name on a flyer in a rundown venue I wouldn't have it any other way. If I'm the pennies spent to get you into the show I hope you get to hear your favorite band play. When the music's over and it's time to go home I just wanna hear you say: “This night was worth it!”
