    Story Behind the Song
    My buddy Ross and I were sitting in my living room pickin' on the banjo and guitar. For some reason we decided that we were going to write a complete song right then and there. I think Ross came up with the first line, then I'd do a line and so on. After about ten minutes of writing we had "Up Till Dawn". It is one of my favorites to play.

    Lyrics
    What are we to do
    restin' here with you
    Simon says to move
    from that whiskey groove

    Times are on our side
    if all we do is glide
    Down to road Sixteen
    to the feilds of green

    Chorus: Grab a canepole and some crikets
    we'll head on down to the thickets
    and let the moon light keep us up 'till dawn

    That manger holds a joy
    heaven's gift a baby boy
    Sent from up above
    for all of to love

    The sun's a settin'low
    you're favce is all a'glow
    Together you and me
    follow while we lead

    Chorus: (Same)

    Full day's work behind
    rest my weary mind
    I'll be in bed by ten
    to start all over again

    His lovelight leads the way
    to heaven's pearly gates
    I hopr you're there with me
    for all eternity

    Chorus: Grab a caneplole and some crikets
    we'll head on down to the thickets
    and let the moonlight keep us up 'till dawn
