Invincible

Lost my heart in a Rt. 50 gas station
I was going 90 in a 55
She was buying Busch Light up at the counter
Didn't know if I'd make it out alive
Heard she's haunting down the VFW
You know my Aunt Josephine runs that place
Quarter beers every happy hour
Keeping smiles on every broken face
I want you to know that I'm invincible
Despite what the outcome might be
Just know this pain is situational
And you can't ever hurt me
I know I'll end up back in West Virginia
Six feet under some old ash tree
Just bring me a pint every Sunday morning
I promise I'll share it with my family
I want you to know that I'm invincible
Despite what the outcome might be
Just know this pain is situational
And you can't ever hurt me
You can't ever hurt me

Outside

Won't you come and find me?
I've been outside
Chasing the lightning in my mind
You're looking for answers
That don't exist
It was the question that you missed
You thought you were special
When you were young
But you're just as boring as everyone
I'm a broken record
You can't ignore
It's determined to be sure
It's just a little let down
Yeah a hole in your pride
If you wanna get out
I'll be waiting outside
You've been forgiven
Of all your crimes
And I've been serving all my life
I know it's confusing
When you're alone
That awful feeling how it's grown
It's just a little let down
Some rain in your cloud
If you wanna get out
Just let it all pour down
It's just a little let down
Yeah a hole in your pride
If you wanna get out
I'll be waiting outside

Sublet Blues

Well they say home is where you choose
And I've been living the sublet blues
Yeah who knows where I'm gonna hang my hat tonight
A couple of bucks to catch a buzz
And I've been day drunk now for months
I swear it's just a phase and I'll be alright
I bang my head against the wall
A blackout race before last call
Simple distraction while I wait right here for you
But you're hours away and I'm alone
This stretch of highway ain't my home
But sometimes I convince myself that's true
I've got enough gas to get you there
But no return trip and I don't care
Just wanna cherish this last moment with you
An inside joke, shared bottle of wine
Collect the confidence right on time
Yeah to let you know you're the one thing that gets me through
I bang my head against the wall
A blackout race before last call
Simple distraction while I wait right here for you
But you're hours away and I'm alone
This stretch of highway ain't my home
But sometimes I convince myself that's true

Time Machine

I had to learn that it's alright to stay inside
When you stare at the ceiling the only thing you hurt is your pride
But I am a wildcat, I am an eagle in the sky
You'll never tame me, yeah it's useless to try
And I want you to know that I am alright
At least for a minute
But I might slide
Pick your poison stress reliever is in demand
Your knuckles are white from always holding your own hand
But I'm not a martyr, yeah I'm no saint captured in stone
I am a boxer living my life against the ropes
And I want you to know that I am alright
At least for a minute
But I might slide
I tried to fix it, but no one listens at all
When you're spinning down at least the ground will break your fall
But I've got no time machine to make it all right
And I've got no time to dream when I'm racing through the night
And I want you to know that I am alright
At least for a minute
But I might slide
Just trying to grow and make a difference
At least I can admit it
That it's my fight

Tucker Riggleman & The Cheap Dates Morgantown, West Virginia
“Musically, 'Shotgun' sounds like the result of Steve Earle hopping on stage with Big Star in a dimly lit dive bar with a
healthy dose of early Old 97’s. Riggleman’s voice rings with a prophetic honesty over overdriven guitar chords. The song’s mid-tempo lilt sounds like the open road."
