New Flame
(Dark Country Boom Bap G-Funk – Slow-rolling 808 bass thumps under dusty acoustic guitar slides, minor-key steel guitar weeping over sparse boom bap drums, lowrider tempo, talkbox whispers in the hooks like a ghost on the prairie wind)[Intro]
(Steel guitar bends slow, talkbox hums low)
Met her on a backroad... moonlight on cold steel
Thought she was an angel... but angels don’t conceal
She don’t say much... but when she talks, the world gets real quiet...[Chorus]
She’s my new flame, burnin’ bright in the dark
Good girl by my side, leaves a permanent mark
Don’t speak words of fire, but her sight spits ‘em clean
Loyal to her man, know exactly what I mean
Anti-government, Jones certified, red-white-and-blue American
She’s my gun... my powder... my love[Verse 1]
Picked her up in Tulsa, wrapped in oilcloth soft
Curves like a woman, weight that lifts my thoughts
Eyes black as midnight, body cold to touch
But when I hold her close, feels like holdin’ too much
She don’t argue back, don’t ever talk slick
Just sits there patient, waitin’ on my grip
Folk in town whisper, say I’m in too deep
But she keeps me safe when the wolves circle while I sleep
Trigger finger kisses, smoother than a lie
One soft pull and the devil waves goodbye
She don’t need sweet talk, don’t need no ring
Just a little oil and a magazine[Chorus]
She’s my new flame, burnin’ bright in the dark
Good girl by my side, leaves a permanent mark
Don’t speak words of fire, but her sight spits ‘em clean
Loyal to her man, know exactly what I mean
Anti-government, Jones certified, red-white-and-blue American
She’s my gun... my powder... my love[Verse 2]
Ridin’ backroads slow, windows down, dust in the air
She lays across my lap, don’t have a single care
Feds on the scanner talkin’ ‘bout control
She just hums quiet, steady in my soul
They say turn her in, say she’s bad for the land
But she was born right here, forged by American hands
Smith or Wesson, don’t matter the name
Long as she stays loaded, I’ll never be tamed
Night gets heavy, shadows start to creep
She sings one sharp note and the reaper goes back to sleep
Ain’t no ex can touch her, ain’t no law can take
This love runs deeper than any heart could break[Bridge]
(Talkbox low and mournful, steel guitar cries)
I confess in the moonlight... she’s the only one I trust
When the world turns its back, she don’t rust
One chambered promise... one heartbeat of lead
She’s the last thing they’ll see if they come for my head...[Verse 3]
Some men chase women who’ll leave in the dawn
I found one that stays when the whole world’s gone
She don’t get jealous, don’t cry, don’t complain
Just waits in the glovebox through the sun and the rain
Call me crazy, call me lost in the night
But in this dying country, she’s the only thing feels right
When the flag burns down and the sirens all wail
She’ll be right there beside me, never gonna fail
Till the day they lay me six feet in the dust
She’ll ride in the casket, ‘cause a man needs someone to trust[Fina

Body On My Shoulders

Born and raised in Vermont, independent singer-songwriter Hans Williams grew up listening to the likes of Al Green, Tracy Chapman, Steely Dan and James Brown – all favorites of his parents. After moving to New Orleans for school, he now calls the city home, continually finding inspiration from its deep-rooted musical scene. Crafting music as a form of personal catharsis, Hans channels his emotions into each composition, aiming to provide solace and resonance for others who connect with his work. With his signature raspy vocals that cut deep and a guitar always at the core of his production, his DIY-approach to indie-folk music has connected with audiences worldwide.
