Dedication Street (2003)

By James Moats in Noblesville, IN

she's known around town for her signature sound
and tells us stories of people we know
it's in the way she says what she chooses to say
it's in the way that she plays

she lives on dedication street
under the billboard for the other white meat
as the wind blows she goes and plays some more shows
and the newspaper covers her

every evening she's hand-shaking the star-stricken folks
they say her music reaches out to the young and old
and the middle-aged people come out in droves
to hear how she loves and see her throwing stones

she says it's no way to live your life
but it seems to suit her just fine
she cries when it's cold out at night
and the newspaper covers her

well, the critics, they don't seem to know their roles
it's hard to find one unsatisfied
it's a sold out house here again tonight
she's taking advantage of life

she lives on dedication street
under the billboard for the other white meat
as the wind blows she goes and books some more shows
and the newspaper covers her
