Uncle Tupelo

Uncle Tupelo was an alternative country music group from Belleville, Illinois, active between 1987 and 1994. Jay Farrar, Jeff Tweedy, and Mike Heidorn formed the band after the lead singer of their previous band, The Primitives, left to attend college. The trio recorded three albums for Rockville Records, before signing with Sire Records and expanding to a five-piece. Shortly after the release of the band's major label debut album Anodyne, Farrar announced his decision to leave the band owing to a soured relationship with his co-songwriter Tweedy. Uncle Tupelo split on May 1, 1994, after completing a farewell tour. Following the breakup, Farrar formed Son Volt with Heidorn, while the remaining members continued as Wilco. more »

Lost sight of ground
Never been so down
Nothing here to stand on

It's a war-weary road
Another faceless tombstone
Nothing here to stand on

I turn to face the wind
May never get out
Forever caught in a spin
No better place to begin

Can't find the phone, can't hear to listen can't take along what we're missing
Just as well to write this postcard from hell and the bar clock says three a.m.
Fallout shelter sign above the door
In other words, don't come here anymore

Too many miles between
I heard a dead man scream
Nothing here to stand on

Each and every step
Reeling out more or less
Nothing here to stand on

I turn to face the wind
May never get out
Forever caught in a spin
No better place to begin

I turn to face the wind
May never get out
Forever caught in a spin
No better place to begin

Tried to stay, tried to run
There's never been enough reason
To believe in anyone
This trickle-down theory has left all these pockets empty and the bar clock says three
A.m.
Fallout shelter sign above the door
In other words, don't come here anymore
