Crash on the Highway Lyrics

There's a crash on the Highway today
Nobody's gonna knew what they say
It could be you up there, she better say a pray and take it easy
On your way
And we can make it 'til we...
So we pull over and we drink some wine
They gotta five cars pay up in Roses way
Ooh drive and take me down in town
Germany it's been cold and mean
I wanan get home to New Orleans
Me and my baby we'll do his thing
Take me back on .on the Monday night
Well they got hsi two dollars coin
Some people say that this a promise land
But me I'm happy in some others
Just on the corner playing ...
There's a crash on the Highway today
Nobody's gonna knew what they say
It could be you up there, she better say a pray and take it easy
On your way
Well I'm all dressed up with nowhere to go
I'm feeling like a last .that the ...
Ooh I ain't come never back
but I gotta it easy all in my mind
ooh there's a crash on the Highway today
Nobody's gonna knew what they say
It could be you up there, she better say a pray and take it easy
On your way
there's a crash on the Highway today
Nobody's gonna knew what they say
It could be you up there, she better say a pray and take it easy
On your way
Or take it easy are you on your way

Hurray for the Riff Raff is Alynda lee Segarra, a 25 year old Puerto Rican from the Bronx. After leaving home at an early age to travel the country, she eventually settled in New Orleans where she began to perform and record with a revolving cast of musicians. She released two records (2008's It Don't Mean I Don't Love You and 2010's Young Blood Blues) mostly consisting of delicate folk and country songs. In 2011, the UK record label Loose Music (Felice Brothers, Dawes, Deer Tick), released Hurray for the Riff Raff, an album that collected the best songs from those records. The Times of London named Hurray for the Riff Raff one of the Top Ten Albums of 2011. Phil Alexander, the Editor-in-Chief of Mojo Magazine, raved that they “have immense potential and seductive power” and named them second best band at SXSW 2011.

Back in the States, Alynda met up with a young honky-tonk band called the Tumbleweeds, just as she began to expand her musical palette to include rock n roll, pop, and soul. In the tradition of Bob Dylan with Band and Neil Young with Crazy Horse, Alynda recruited the Tumbleweeds to be her touring band, drastically altering the sound of Hurray for the Riff Raff.

Look Out Mama is the result of almost two years of Alynda and the Tumbleweeds criss-crossing the USA, playing over 100 shows in small bars and clubs. Recorded in Nashville by producer Andrija Tokic (Alabama Shakes), Look Out Mama is an exploration of classic American music as interpreted by Alynda lee Segarra. From the Swamp Pop of "Little Black Star" to the Classic Country of "Look Out Mama", to the Psychedelia of “Ode to John and Yoko” and even the Surf-Rock of “Lake of Fire”, Look Out Mama covers a wide array of musical ground, with every song unified by Alynda’s soulful vocals and expert songwriting.
