Skinny Kid 02:10
you're a skinny kid but you're doing alright looking for a fight on a Saturday night teenaged wisdom is an oxymoron found out too late when your front tooth was gone the girls don't seem to know you exist wrapped up in your defenses never been kissed hangout with your buddies and a six pack of Bud swear your allegiance forever a pact made with blood you got a friend who's a junkie and a friend who's a thief a friend who just sits there and gnashes his teeth no path you can follow no one who knows best which i guess puts you in the same boat as the rest in the end you're left will a story to tell tall tales of glory and the brave men who fell when it's all said and done we know it's just talk now you're counting down numbers and punching a clock now you're counting down numbers and punching a clock

about

History Of A Common Man continues Savage's exploration of Folk, Country, and Americana genres. From the teenaged lament of Skinny Kid to the under-medicated psychotic ramblings of Take The Wheel And I'll Steer, from the road-weary musician in Rougher On Me to the tear-drenched Country of All Over You, History Of A Common Man finds its stories in people who live on the margins. Outsiders looking for their place in the world.

about

Tom Savage Kingston, Ontario

Tom Savage is what one might refer to as a triple-threat. One part truth-telling troubadour, one part death-defying guitar slinger, and one part Country Blues howler. Each facet of his formidable on-stage persona carefully crafted over a 20+ year devotion to the composition and performance of song. Tom is a true believer. A disciple of melody and harmony and tempo and timbre. ... more
