Just Like The Beatles

Taking it down and taking it slow
Where I’m going, I don’t know
Got my hat on and my brand new pair of boots
Heading Southbound, listening to the blues
Every time I see your face
Well it takes me back to that place
But your smile is fading fast
Now I need this journey to last
All my life (Don’t know why)
We’re gonna live like rock n roll
Stand up and tell ‘em where to go
We’re gonna live like rock n roll
Just like The Beatles and The Stones
Rolling Stones
Taking it down and taking it slow
Where I’m going, I just don’t know
Got my hat on and a brand new pair of boots
Driving Southbound, listening to the blues
All my life (Don’t know why)
We’re gonna live like rock n roll
Stand up and tell ‘em where to go
We’re gonna live like rock n roll
Just like The Beatles and The Stones
Rolling Stones

No One Ever Told Me

Your words are like shivers that shoot through my spine
Your thoughts are like colours that glow in my mind
Your love is a river that flows like my blood
Your ghost is a shadow I’d chase if I could
And no one ever told me
The price I’d have to pay
And no one ever told me
I’d end up here today
Your heart is an ocean I swim everyday
Your dreams are the pictures I paint on the way
And no one ever told me
The price I’d have to pay
And no one ever told me
I’d end up here today

The Highway

Driving down the highway at speed
Got a million places to see
Don’t mind the rain or the sleet
See a rainbow through my windscreen
Are you ever gonna find time for me?
Are you ever gonna find time for me?
Driving down the highway at speed
Got a thousand horses at my feet
Don’t know whats next for you and me
Gotta slow it down so we can see
Are you ever gonna find time for me?
Are you ever gonna find time for me?
Don’t mind the rain
Don’t mind the rain
Let it fall
Don’t mind the rain
Don’t mind the rain
Let it fall

Black Irish Dogs

There's a folksong in my ear
There's a wild one gone from here
There's a race horse on the track
There's a monkey on my back
We belong to no one
We are strong as they come
There's a scarecrow in the breeze
There's an old man beggin’ please
There's a newborn at your feet
There's a riot on the street
We belong to no one
We are strong as they come
Like a bird that has flown
We’re a long way from home
There's a jet trail in the sky
There's a young boy asking why
There's a suitcase on the floor
There's a taxi at the door
We belong to no one
We are strong as they come
Like a bird that has flown
We’re a long way from home
We’re the Black Irish Dogs (they don’t want, they don’t want)
We’re the Black Irish Dogs (they don’t want, they don’t want, they don’t want)

Country Mountain

I was born on a country mountain
Where the moon shone bright and true
And I had me a good life
And I hope my friends did too
When I shake the hand of Jesus
Lay a good book next to me
Cause I might need some good luck
Just to keep me company
I was born on a Sunday morning
When the sun came shining through
And I had me a good life
And I hope my friends did too
Solo
I was born on a country mountain
Where the stars shone bright and true
And I had me a good life
And I hope my friends did too
And I had me a good life
And I hope my friends did too

BEAD Ireland
Dave Dwyer has used the moniker ‘Bead’ ™ since first playing Whelans of Wexford Street in
1994.
After seeing a poster in Tower Records, I got the idea to work with Morrissey‘s guitarist Boz Boorer. I travelled to Portugal and recorded the Battle Stations album and the Country Mountain EP.
