Adventures of You and Me Lyrics

Uno dos tres quatro
We broke down on the side of the road
Heading up to New York City
You held your thumb out in the wind
I held a cardboard sign for Lower East Side Bridge
Across the Brooklyn Bridge, the rain was falling
The wolves of Wall Street swallowed the Empire State
We never cared 'cause the old town bar was hopping
We got drunk and we danced around in the street
Adventures of you and me will last forever
I'm not too sure about this world
I hope someday it all comes together, baby
Until it does, well, I'm sure glad that you're my girl
Heading back west, yeah, we come undone
And the train derailed in Texas
Two-stepping down on the Guadalupe
With the Tornadoes and Flaco Jimenez
We made friends with long-haired hippie stoners
Living so high that our minds are out of reach
We come down 'cause the music in town was balling
We closed our eyes and we danced along with the beat
Adventures of you and me will last forever
I'm not too sure about this world
I hope someday it all comes together, baby
Until it does, well, I'm sure glad that you're my girl
Hitched a ride on a deisel freight liner
Out across New Mexico
Sipping cerveza with salt and lime
Singing along with songs on the radio
We passed out and woke up in California
The concrete jungle was a-busting at the seams
The angles down in Los Angeles were calling
So out on the boardwalk we danced all night with a breeze
Adventures of you and me will last forever
I'm not too sure about this world
I hope someday it all comes together, baby
Until it does, well, I'm sure glad that you're my girl

George Ryan Bingham (born March 31, 1981 in Hobbs, New Mexico) is an American folk rock/Americana singer/songwriter. In addition to his solo albums, Bingham recorded two albums as Ryan Bingham & The Dead Horses.

Bingham dropped out of school at 17 and was introduced to rodeo bull riding. He learned the emotional aspect of pain early in life, when shuttling between small towns and family members in the hardscrabble ranching communities of West Texas and Hobbs, New Mexico -- and became well-acquainted with the physical facets of pain during his years on the Southwestern rodeo circuit.

That ache is palpable in the grooves of Mescalito, Ryan Bingham’s Lost Highway debut, but what’s even more plain is the steely strength needed to overcome it -- a tenor that’s evident in both the singer-songwriter’s preternaturally wizened voice and his remarkably poignant songs, which resonate with roadhouse wisdom and rough-and-ready border-town piquancy.

The Beg For Broken Legs Songfacts reports that Bingham's fourth album, Tomorrowland, was recorded in Malibu, California with producer Justin Stanley and self-released through Bingham's new independent record label Axster Bingham Records on September 18, 2012.

He has won an Oscar for the best film song (Crazy Heart - The Weary Kind) in 2010.
