The Jayhawks

The Jayhawks are an American alternative country and rock band that emerged from the Twin Cities music scene during the mid 1980s. Their country rock sound was influential on many bands who played the Twin Cities circuit during the 1980s and 1990s like Uncle Tupelo, The Gear Daddies and The Honeydogs. They have released several studio albums, including five on the American Recordings label. On hiatus from 2005 to 2009, the band has since reunited and released a new album, "Mockingbird Time," in September 2011. more »

 Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!

Maddie lived in west LA
Long brown hair with bangs that lay
Upon her brow, tanned lightly by the sun

Her sparkling eyes were crystal blue
When she stared she'd see right through you
Toy with your emotions just for fun

Ooh-ooh, it's a bitter pill to swallow
She's here today, but she won't be here tomorrow

She worked down at the topless bar
Saved enough to buy a car
A rusty red forgotten Chevrolet

Too many nights with nothing to show
Counting tips while her frustration grows

Ooh-ooh, it's a bitter pill to swallow
She's here today, but she won't be here tomorrow
She's here today, but she won't be here tomorrow

Alone, now is there something wrong with me, she cried
I feel like something deep inside me died

Maddie found another town
But her past followed her around
Wherever she would run to there she was
Baby, don't you leave me, baby, don't go
But streets are for deciding I suppose

Ooh-ooh, it's a bitter pill to swallow
She's here today, but she won't be here tomorrow
She's here today, but she won't be here tomorrow

The cycle starts it feels brand new
But she's been here a time or two
Maddie can't be happy if she ain't free
