about

Great rock n roll has always been about either chasing something down or running fast as hell away from it. But what happens when that thing you're chasing or running away from is yourself? THE COMPANY I KEEP, the third single from new Windsor, ON quartet HURON LINES is a dirty, head-bobbing rock song about finding out that in the end you are the company you keep even when it’s staring at you in the mirror.

More about THE COMPANY I KEEP:
“Sometimes you are your own worst enemy. Drinking too much doesn't usually end well and it's even more detrimental as a solo undertaking.. especially the older you get and the more life throws at you. Sonically this one was written on an old baritone ukulele that was given to me when I was a kid - I have never written a song on it before but had it fixed up in anticipation of passing it on to the next generation in my family when the song fell out of the sky after a late night lost in the darkness... like most of the good ones tend to do...”
- Dave Mueller, Huron Lines

lyrics

The Company I Keep
Lyrics by D. Mueller

i’m a saint and i’m a sinner
i’m a man and i gotta deliver the goods
for the life we wanna live

there’s a devil on my shoulder
he got wiser he got older
he knows
how to use up all my time

i don’t think that i should ever drink alone
worry about the ways my head might just explode
i know i’m just the company i keep

there’s a reason i don’t go there
i know when i leave i’ll be alone
with my head inside of me

i don’t think that i should ever drink alone
worry about the ways my head might just explode
i know i’m just the company i keep

i don’t think that i should ever be alone
worry about the ways my head will just explode
i know i’m just the company i keep

i know i’m just the company i keep

...just the company i keep

……. the company i keep
