This I Know

from Living Machine by Joe Con

subscriber exclusive

about

"This I Know" is the first single from Joe Con's new album "Living Machine." Recorded at The Elephant Rooms studio in Midway, Kentucky in the fall of 2014, "Living Machine" represents the emergence of yet another aspect of Con's artistry: it is his first real foray into production. With the help of engineers Erik Nystrom and Jason Adams, and the talents of singer Beth Burden and violinist Rachel Yanarella, Joe has produced 14 excellent tracks of post-folk minimalism that reflect and pay homage to his central Kentucky roots, the place from which he grew and the home to which he returned to water and tend his garden of song, and from which he has plucked these delicious fruits. "Living Machine" (The Elephant Rooms Mix) will be released online 3.15.15. A very limited number of 1st pressing physical copies are available. For requests write to joeconmusic@gmail.com.

lyrics

Save me from the city take me to the town I know
Say you’re coming with me say you’re coming with me when I go
Sometimes life’s a highway sometimes it’s a country road
Someday you’ll go my way like you did so long ago

Won’t you come and get me take me from the ice and snow
Won’t you come and kiss me we can take it nice and slow
Promise not to miss me promise you’ll be with me when I go
Promise don’t forget me I’ll always keep you with me this I know

Take me from what has become of me
Place me up there in your company
Take me up as if it’s up to me
Pain is just the way you must make love to me

Save me from the city take me to the town I know
Say you’re coming with me say you’re coming with me when I go
Sometimes life’s a highway sometimes it’s a country road
Someday you’ll go my way like you did so long ago

Promise not to miss me promise you’ll be with me when I go
Promise don’t forget me I’ll always keep you with me this I know
