Nobody loves when you get old
Days are getting shorter and
The nights are getting cold
Nobody loves you when you get old
Really just shows you how the story goes
Not a single person cares when you’re alive
Just before you get here and after you die
Get a nice obit but your names not spelled right
Nobody cares until you die
Nobody loves you after you're born
They only wanna keep you to settle their score
Nobody loves you after your born
You’re just another casualty for their war
Not a single person cares when you’re alive
Just before you get here and after you die
Get a nice headstone but your name’s not spelled right
Nobody cares until you die
Nobody loves you when you get old
They cheat you and they rob you for your silver n gold
Nobody loves you when you get old
They're just waiting on your soul to be sold
Not a single person cares when you’re alive
Just before you get here and after you die
Get a nice obit but your name’s not spelled right
Nobody cares until you die

There are nights when I sit at the bar
thinking to myself how did I get here?
Feels like something should be going on
But it’s just what it is, is like a ghost in the air
Never really get it, never understand
Only ever happy with a drink in my hand
If I wasn’t so outnumbered, I could make my stand
But I am here to tell you
Tonight, I’ll be out in the crowd,
Singing loud, singing loud
Lights will sparkle on the sweat of my brow
Dancing proud, dancing proud
The river overflows straight into my cup,
All my friends are there just to hold me up
Baby don’t ya bother trying to call me a cab
Cause Jesus gonna pay my tab
I said, Jesus gonna pay my tab
It’s nice to see you out on your own
You got a shine on your shoe and your hair is combed
I guess I must’ve missed that bus
While I was digging for change to bail you out of the hole
Funny how the saved always leave you behind
I guess your memories are shorter when you climb
But you’ll always have my heart cuz true love is blind
And I am here to tell you
Tonight, I’ll be out in the crowd,
Singing loud, singing loud
Lights will sparkle on the sweat of my brow
Dancing proud, dancing proud
The river overflows straight into my cup,
All my friends are there just to hold me up
Baby don’t ya bother trying to call me a cab
Cause Jesus gonna pay my tab
I said, Jesus gonna pay my tab

Bitter Pill New Hampshire
A tight-knit family, (literally father and daughter) who play a dark and anachronistic twist of folk, blues, bluegrass,
country, and rock – mixed with original spoken word as well as reading from classical literature.
A foot stompin’, hand clappin’, spirited, cross-genre rhythm and bluegrass ensemble.
