Buck Down 02:38
The boys are back again this year To get a buck and drink some beer I know We'll take it or leave it We must have scout a thousand miles to make reports on deer profiles I know We'll put meat in the freezer We've done this all before Got racks of every score We've done this all before Buck down When the deer they come around Buck down When the deer they come around Buck down When da boys are back in town Buck down No time to mess around Buck down So set your sights to make amends On past missed shots and old regrets I know We"ll get em again this year Get on with putting up your blinds And make damn sure theyre good this time I know It's all in the timing We've done this all before Got racks of every score We've done this all before Buck down When the deer they come around Buck down When the deer they come around Buck down When the Boys are back in town Buck down No time to mess around Buck down

Well he got press ganged in the navy We need a decent ship One that can hold brave souls 189 of these Daring to cross vast seas Gales and disease Come sail away with me My name is Hector Lord of the Sea One wooden ship That crossed the ocean In 73 Flee to young Scotia Backyard of the free One highland clearance To those opposed of monarchy To those who were sick Of dysentery The young and the old The brave and the bold Who were tempered by thee My name is Hector Lord of the Sea One wooden ship That crossed the ocean In 73 Your children are we At the tender age of ten And his visions kinda hazy From rum and totes of gin Now he's seen all sorts of weather And things he can't explain He's given another ship with a crew thats sorta lame Captain Cameron's seen it all Got where withall And he's tryin to do his best When given what is left Captain Cameron exclaimed For all to hear Well He said Hey fuck me Why these chuds so dirty? I've been given another chance By my admiralty Now I know in my soul The kinda places we will go Come along me and you On the decks of the salty Jew So now he's stuck inside the navy With a group of angry men His visions still hazy From water and ports he's been And he's seen all sorts a women Done things he can't explain Given this last chance With a crew thatd pretty lame Captain Cameron's seen it all Got where With all And he trying to do his best When given what was left Captain Cameron exclaimed For all to hear Well he said Hey fuck me why these chuds so dirty? I've been given a shitty crew By my admiralty Now I know in my soul the kinds of places we will go Come along me and you On the decks of the salty jew

Who is this man What are his secrets Does one live off firewood alone Is he a Byronic hero Treading life with wild heart Is he another Nero Setting fires right from the start Long is the road of this Hutterite rogue Dark is the path That he sees His freedom is fleeting Living from stealing One man's gold is Another's junk One mans gold Another's junk Jekyl and Hyde Bonnie loved Clyde When will rogue brother collide When will Rogue brother collide Alex had his Darrius Empires will rise and fall Cossette had her marius You rougues they were all Long is the road Of this Hutterite rogue Dark is the path that he sees For what it's worth wrong or right He was a Rogue hutterite

He tried keeping it all in but he through his life away Down to the river and shot, tried to save their flank She cries alone at night while he chases all the blues away Fathers promise abounds but they'll never live to see the day And so Love lost And found These Borodino Nights Blood and battle ground We live Oh we're proud These high and might homes We all die in the ground Borodino nights Borodino Nights Borodino Nights All die in the ground The sky was clear and blue when he finally realized his fate Muted scream and shot as they pushed em all in the grave Rich man view of war is a poor man legacy Poor man view of war is a rich man fallacy And so Love lost And found

Hector 04:11
We need a decent ship One that can hold brave souls 189 of these Daring to cross vast seas Gales and disease Come sail away with me My name is Hector Lord of the Sea One wooden ship That crossed the ocean In 73 Flee to young Scotia Backyard of the free One highland clearance To those opposed of monarchy To those who were sick Of dysentery The young and the old The brave and the bold Who were tempered by thee My name is Hector Lord of the Sea One wooden ship That crossed the ocean In 73 Your children are we

Remembering days in Oklahoma at 14 years old His American girl with eyes so bold, and train rides out to Toronto Theres nothing like travelling in a cattle car Or running red lights in the boss's car There's no Cathedral for them but rockies they'd plant another tree Drink some more whiskey Talk about old McEwans book who's a patron saint and whose a crook I know he'd wait for us Near John Ware's place Or Clear that path he'd said he would For us to find our )way But I'll remember you, in cowboy boots And Copenhagen marks Interlude Remembering days of Farming with you at 14 years old You never got mad no matter how much I fucked up There's always a story to be told There's nothing like ripping out doors on hay stacks Or learning bout all those cowboy life hacks There's no cathedral for me, but you

Mac T 04:06
Fuckin around at work and just sitting there when Steve's picture came through to me Well son of a bitch! You know he's right She really looks like Mac T Now it's weird me out, whats the story here resemblance so uncanny My mind goes wandering off somewhere on stories of secret identity Playing on cup winning teams The oilers, the 80's A bucket less phenom McTavish was known for bravery So many times he must have hit his dome So many times got lost heading home Woke up one day this way Long may he roam then one day he woke up and must have hit up hit his head Self identified with some old fuckin broad Fucked the oilers with management anyway Might as well see what ontario has to say

You’re not alone These people gathered here They’re just like you They love this town Collected memories And Stuck like glue Well They say he’s going nowhere And it’s been to many times The crew is getting hungry Marching all these years in time The Army Together The Canon Primed Hold For The Weather Take It All In Stride Before the city grows cold Your turn to speak Go from the heart Like a wizard Santa Bonaparte At a Wool Sock Waterloo Pull them tight Suspenders hold up more Than just your life The world is yours A three point shot from Tennis Courts Well he bought that land In the seventies on a handshake deal Not how the wold works I understand how you feel The Army Together The Canon Primed Hold For The Weather Take It All In Stride Before the city grows cold Your turn to speak Go from the heart Like a wizard Santa Bonaparte At a Wool Sock Waterloo

about

Waterways is the first release by northern Albertan band the Radium Scouts, a best of compilation of the first batch of songs written by the band. The lyrical content is comprised of a wide spectrum that ranges from personal stories often with a whimsical or comedic feel, to historical, expository and sincere. While the basic foundation of the music is primarily acoustic with mandolin accents, A punk influence is definitely notable with distorted electric guitar, driving baselines and loud and upbeat drumming. A unique blend of personality and charm makes this record a fun overall experience.
