| "Bad To The Bone"
On the day I was born
The nurses all gathered 'round
And they gazed in wide wonder
At the joy they had found
The head nurse spoke up
Said "leave this one alone"
She could tell right away
That I was bad to the bone
Bad to the bone
Bad to the bone

Данный релиз фактически является доработанным переизданием вышедшего четырьмя годами ранее альбома каверов “Southern Rock Masters”, на котором была отдана дань уважения группам, которые когда-то вдохновили самих Molly Hatchet. И надо сказать, что “Regrinding the Axes” выигрывает у своего предшественника благодаря более взвешенному подходу к составлению трек-листа – была изменена последовательность треков и добавлены четыре новые песни, записанные во время студийных сессий к “Southern Rock Masters”. И если выбор битловских “Back in the U.S.S.R” и “Yesterday” выглядит донельзя банально, то “Free Bird” (Lynyrd Skynyrd) и “Melissa” (The Allman Brothers Band”) это действительно настоящая классика южного рока, ставшая украшением альбома. Особенно “Free Bird” – знаковая вещь и один из любимых концертных номеров Molly Hatchet в течение долгих лет. У этой песни долгая и славная история, и она является если и не «наиболее востребованной песней в истории рок-музыки» (по мнению журналиста Amazon.com Лорри Флеминга), то уж точно одной из самых известных. Ее можно услышать даже в саундтреке к легендарному фильму «Форрест Гамп». Слушая “Free Bird”, легко можно почувствовать, какое влияние Lynyrd Skynyrd и конкретно эта песня оказали на творчество Molly Hatchet. Базовая структура песни и сам подход к аранжировке угадываются в целом ряде вещей «хэтчетов», особенно авторства Бобби Ингрэма. Думаю, что «Вольная птица» стала главным украшением “Regrinding the Axes”. Более удачным оказался и выбор концертных бонусов. Мощная “Get In the Game” из позднего творчества «хэтчет», а также гитарное-фортепианное соло из клэптоновской “Layla” стали отличным дополнением к основному материалу.
Ну а в целом за счет наличия новых вещей, а также благодаря измененной последовательности песен по сравнению с “Southern Rock Masters” эта работа звучит динамичнее. И даже унаследованные от предшественника явные огрехи в звучании не слишком портят впечатление от прослушивания. Действительно хороший альбом. Пусть и старомодный… |

"Mississippi Queen"
(originally by Mountain)
Mississippi Queen, You know what I mean
Mississippi Queen, She taught me everything
Went down around Dick's place, around Louisiana way
Where lived the Cajun Lady, aboard the Mississippi Queen
You know she was a dancer. She moved better on wine
While the rest of them dudes were gettin' their kicks
Boy, I beg your pardon, I was gettin' mine
Mississippi Queen, If you know what I mean
Mississippi Queen, She taught me everything
This lady she asked me, if I would be her man
You know that I told her, I'd do what I can
To keep her lookin' pretty, buy her dresses that shine
While the rest of them dudes were makin' their friends
Boy, I beg your pardon, I was loosin' mine
You know she was a dancer. She moved better on wine
While the rest of them dudes were gettin' their kicks
Boy, I beg your pardon, I was gettin' mine
Yeah, Mississippi Queen
"Free Bird"
If I leave here tomorrow
Would you still remember me?
For I must be travelling on, now,
'Cause there's too many places I've got to see.
But, if I stayed here with you, girl,
Things just couldn't be the same.
'Cause I'm as free as a bird now,
And this bird you can not change.
Lord knows, I can't change.
Bye, bye, its been a sweet love.
Though this feeling I can't change.
But please don't take it badly,
'Cause Lord knows I'm to blame.
But, if I stayed here with you girl,
Things just couldn't be the same.
Cause I'm as free as a bird now,
And this bird you'll never change.
And this bird you can not change.
Lord knows, I can't change.
Lord help me, I can't change.
"Back In The U.S.S.R."
Oh, flew in from Miami Beach B.O.A.C.
Didn't get to bed last night
On the way the paper bag was on my knee
Man I had a dreadful flight
I'm back in the U.S.S.R.
You don't know how lucky you are boy
Back in the U.S.S.R. (Yeah)
Been away so long I hardly knew the place
Gee it's good to be back home
Leave it till tomorrow to unpack my case
Honey disconnect the phone
I'm back in the U.S.S.R.
You don't know how lucky you are boy
Back in the U.S.
Back in the U.S.
Back in the U.S.S.R.
Well the Ukraine girls really knock me out
They leave the West behind
And Moscow girls make me sing and shout
That Georgia's always on my mind
Aw come on!
Ho yeah!
Ho yeah!
Ho ho yeah!
Yeah yeah!
Yeah I'm back in the U.S.S.R.
You don't know how lucky you are boys
Back in the U.S.S.R.
Well the Ukraine girls really knock me out
They leave the West behind
And Moscow girls make me sing and shout
That Georgia's always on my mind
Oh, show me around your snow-peaked mountains way
down south
Take me to your daddy's farm
Let me hear your balalaika's ringing out
Come and keep your comrade warm
I'm back in the U.S.S.R.
Hey you don't know how lucky you are boys
Back in the U.S.S.R.
Oh let me tell you, honey
Hey, I'm back!
I'm back in the U.S.S.R.
Yes, I'm free!
Yeah, back in the U.S.S.R.
Ha ha
"Sharp Dressed Man"
Clean shirt, new shoes
And I don't know where I am goin' to
Silk suit, black tie
I don't need a reason why
They come runnin' just as fast as they can
'Cause every girl crazy 'bout a sharp dressed man
Gold watch, diamond ring
I ain't missin' not a single thing
Cufflinks, stick pin
When I step out I'm gonna do you in
They come runnin' just as fast as they can
'Cause every girl crazy 'bout a sharp dressed man
Top coat, top hat
Well, I don't worry 'cause my wallet's fat
Black shades, white gloves
Lookin' sharp and lookin' for love
They come runnin' just as fast as they can
'Cause every girl crazy 'bout a sharp dressed man
"Boys Are Back In Town"
Guess who just got back today
Them wild-eyed boys that had been away
Haven't changed, hadn't much to say
But, man, I still think them cats are crazy
They were asking if you were around
How you was, where you could be found
Told them you were living downtown
Driving all the old men crazy
The boys are back in town (the boys are back in town)
(I said) The boys are back in town (the boys are back in
town)
The boys are back in town (the boys are back in town)
The boys are back in town (the boys are back in town)
You know that chick that used to dance a lot?
Every night she'd be on the floor shaking what she'd got
Man, when I tell you she was cool, she was red hot
I mean, she was steaming
And that time over at Johnny's place
Well, this chick got up and she slapped Johnny's face
Man, we just fell about the place
If that chick don't want to know, forget her
The boys are back in town (the boys are back in town)
(I said) The boys are back in town (the boys are back in
town)
The boys are back in town (the boys are back in town)
The boys are back in town (the boys are back in town)
Spread the word around
Guess who's back in town
Just spread the word around
Friday night they'll be dressed to kill
Down at Dino's Bar and Grill
The drink will flow and blood will spill
And if the boys want to fight you better let them
That jukebox in the corner blasting out my favourite song
The nights are getting warmer, it won't be long
Won't be long till summer comes
Now that the boys are here again
The boys are back in town (the boys are back in town)
The boys are back in town (the boys are back in town)
The boys are back in town (the boys are back in town)
Spread the word around
The boys are back in town (the boys are back in town)
The boys are back (the boys are back)
The boys are back in town again
Been hanging down at Dino's
The boys are back in town again
"Tumbling Dice"
Women think I'm tasty, always tryin' to waste me
Make me burn the candle right down...but baby, baby
I don't need no jewels in my crown
Its all you women is low down gamblers
Cheatin' like I don't know how...but baby...baby
There's fever in the funk house now
This low down bitchin' got my poor feet a itchin'
Don't you know the duece is still wild
[Chorus:]
Baby, I can't stay...you got to roll me and
Call me the Tumblin' Dice...
Always in a hurry, never stop to worry
Don't see the time flashin' by
Honey, got no money
I'm all sixes, sevens, and nines
Say now baby, I'm the rank outsider
You can be my partner in crime
[Chorus:]
Baby, I can't stay...you got to roll me and
Call me the Tumblin' Dice...Call me the Tumblin' Dice
Oh, my, my, my, I'm the lone crap shooter
Playin' the field every night
[Chorus:]
Baby, I can't stay...you got to roll me and
Call me the Tumblin' Dice...
(You got to roll me...)
Call me the Tumblin' Dice...
(You got to roll me...)
"Dreams I'll Never See"
Just one more morning, I have to wake up with the blues.
Pull myself outta bed, yeah, put on my walkin' shoes.
Climb up on a hilltop, baby, see what I can see, yeah.
The whole world's fallin' down oh babe, right down in front
of me.
Cause I'm hung up, on dreams, I'm never gonna see, yeah.
Lord help me baby, dreams get the best of me yet.
Pull myself together, gonna put on a new face, yeah.
Gonna climb down from the hilltop, baby, Lord, get back in
the race.
Cause I got dreams, I got my dreams, to remember, the
love we had.
I got dreams, I got my dreams, to remember, the love we
had.
Cause I'm hung up, on dreams, I'm never gonna see, yeah.
Lord help me baby, dreams get the best of me yet.
"Melissa"
Crossroads, seem to come and go, yeah.
The gypsy flies from coast to coast
Knowing many, loving none,
Bearing sorrow havin' fun,
But back home he'll always run
To sweet Melissa... mmm...
Freight train, each car looks the same, all the same.
And no one knows the Gypsy's name
No one hears his lonely sighs,
There are no blankets where he lies.
In all his deepest dreams the Gypsy flies
with sweet Melissa... mmm...
Again the morning's come,
Again he's on the run,
Sunbeams shining through his hair,
Appearing not to have a care.
Well, pick up your gear and Gypsy roll on, roll on.
Crossroads, will you ever let him go? (Lord, Lord)
Will you hide the dead man's ghost,
Or will he lie, beneath the clay,
or will his spirit float away?
But I know that he won't stay without Melissa.
Yes I know that he won't stay without Melissa.
"Wild Horses"
Childhood living is easy to do
The things you wanted I bought them for you
Graceless lady you know who I am
You know I can't let you slide through my hands
Wild horses couldn't drag me away
Wild, wild horses, couldn't drag me away
I watched you suffer a dull aching pain
Now you decided to show me the same
No sweeping exits or offstage lines
Could make me feel bitter or treat you unkind
Wild horses couldn't drag me away
Wild, wild horses, couldn't drag me away
I know I dreamed you a sin and a lie
I have my freedom but I don't have much time
Faith has been broken, tears must be cried
Let's do some living after we die
Wild horses couldn't drag me away
Wild, wild horses, we'll ride them some day
Wild horses couldn't drag me away
Wild, wild horses, we'll ride them some day
"Tequila Sunrise"
It's another tequila sunrise
Starin' slowly 'cross the sky, said goodbye
He was just a hired hand
Workin' on the dreams he planned to try
The days go by
Ev'ry night when the sun goes down
Just another lonely boy in town
And she's out runnin' 'round
She wasn't just another woman
And I couldn't keep from comin' on
It's been so long
Oh, and it's a hollow feelin' when
It comes down to dealin' friends
It never ends
Take another shot of courage
Wonder why the right words never come
You just get numb
It's another tequila sunrise,this old world
still looks the same,
Another frame, mm...
"Yesterday"
Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away
Now it looks as though they're here to stay
Oh, I believe in yesterday
Suddenly, I'm not half the man I used to be
There's a shadow hanging over me.
Oh, I yesterday came suddenly
Why she had to go I don't know she wouldn't say
I said something wrong, now I long for yesterday
Yesterday, love was such an easy game to play
Now I need a place to hide away
Oh, I believe in yesterday
Why she had to go I don't know she wouldn't say
I said something wrong, now I long for yesterday
Yesterday, love was such an easy game to play
Now I need a place to hide away
Oh, I believe in yesterday
Mm mm mm mm mm mm mm
"Get In The Game"
Welcome to Last Chance motel, yeah, it's the end of the
line
All dressed up and nowhere to go in a one horse town
Part of me is back in the city, I had to change direction
I got no backstage passes, baby, to the resurrection
I had to reach inside, take a look
When I don't know who I am
With broken hearts and street smarts, baby
Have made me a jaded man
Nothin' to it, but to do it
Get in the game
Been on the sidelines far too long
Get in the game
Stick to your pistols, baby, 'cause it's a brand new day
The world is for the takin' now, nothin' to stand in my way
Lookin' back over your shoulder, dwelling on the past
Better think twice if you roll the dice
Don't write a check, your ass can't cash
I had to reach inside, take a look
When I don't know who I am
With broken hearts and street smarts, baby
Have made me a jaded man
Nothin' to it, but to do it
Get in the game
Been on the sidelines far too long
Get in the game
Nothin' to it, but to do it
Get in the game
Been on the sidelines far too long
Get in the game
I'm always left inside a song, that's where I feel safe
Sometimes when you open your eyes, you play 'em as
they lay
Now the sun is shining down, black clouds have gone
away
Life's worth livin', but it ain't forgiven, yes, it's your play you
pay
I had to reach inside, take a look
Behold a stronger man
Nothin' to it, but to do it
Get in the game
Been on the sidelines far too long
Get in the game
Nothin' to it, but to do it
Get in the game
Been on the sidelines far too long
Get in the game
Get in the game
Get in the game
