"All Hat And No Cattle" (#402, 201006)

All hat and no cattle all bark and no bite
If you'd a told me I'd a stayed home tonight
Tried to be patient but I ran outta' luck
I don't seem to be able to give one single fumbling care right now

All bread and no butter all spark and no flame
House keeps on winnin' I'm losin' again
Time marches forward and the later it gits
I just keepin thinkin' how I'm sick of this charade

All mouth and no trousers all balls and no strikes
Guess you done fooled me once more than twice
Here I am lonesome and drunk in a ditch
Can't find my lighter ain't that a big let down

All sizzle no ribeye all work and no play
No steak for my Stetson no A-1 today
Sometimes you're the pigeon and sometimes the truck
But somehow you always seem to get fudge on your hands

Week 41b - All Hat And No Cattle (201006)

Half of folk pop duo Cabin of Love. One-quarter of Americana band The Foragers.

We took our name from a painting by Max Ernst, which features an innocent bird menaced by a threatening forest.

This mixture of innocence and menace is present in our songs, which explore different worlds, some light and some dark. 

Our debut EP "Pleasure to Burn" came out on 15th January 2016. Critics have been very kind, praising our blend of "Spanish folk with US southern blues":  http://emergingindiebands.com/forest-dove/ 

We've also been featured in many Spanish blogs...
