ANOTHER GOOD MAN GONE (copyright 2018 Gus Stagg)
Insects clickin' in the heat of the night
A hundred billion strong
Woke up stumblin' off the edge of my life
Another good man gone
Another good man gone
There's a lion in with the lamb
Roarin' like King Kong
Daddy came home drunk again
Another good man gone
Another good man gone
The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak
We all know right from wrong
What we sow, that's what we reap
Another good man gone
Another good man gone
Saw a young kid with a spike in his arm
Doin' the zombie nod
The kiss of paradise is the devil's charm
Another good kid gone
Another good kid gone
Don't do it, son...

PRODUCTION NOTES
The "hundred billion strong" insect noises that open and close this song were built up from lots of short single audio samples, all sourced locally...we wanted them to be recognizable to our local listeners (cicadas really do sound very different in other geographic areas)! It may be a very small part of the song, but the result strikingly evokes the sweltering evenings here in the Midwest.
