lyrics
I bet you think that I'm loneliness
That I'm an empty street
The wind blowing
While the telephone just dangles on the line
Well I don't mind at all, I don't mind at all
Cause I'm sure you're living
Way down in a hole
Just pickin' for grubs
Stumblin' in the dark
While the telephone just dangles on the line
That I'm an empty street
The wind blowing
While the telephone just dangles on the line
Well I don't mind at all, I don't mind at all
Cause I'm sure you're living
Way down in a hole
Just pickin' for grubs
Stumblin' in the dark
While the telephone just dangles on the line

Honest Life
by Courtney Marie Andrewssupported by 13 fans who also own “And the Telephone Dangles on the Line”
Courtney has really delivered a gem in this record. This collection of songs feels tight and cohesive. Highlights for me are "How Quickly Your Heart Mends" and "Table For One". What has always struck me about Courtney's music is that the melodies sound like the lyrics feel; from the arrangements to the delivery, you won't be disappointed!

Just a really solid countrified indie folk rock album from top to bottom, in the vein of those early Deer Tick albums.
