Southern Dreaming
The Sheepdogs Lyrics
I've looked on down, now baby it looks nice
You don't have to tell me more than once or twice
I've kept all the things, you found my walking shoes
I found out a way to rig it so I can't lose
Now I said darling
Would you keep on pushing?
Would you keep on riding?
All you love is down
No, I guess I'll spend my days
Southern dreaming
I fight through this haze, baby
Fight through the malaise
I'll live down there til my dying days
I see when I sleep, baby, through my dreams
That I've read in the pages of books and magazines
Now I said darling
Would you keep on pushing?
Would you keep on riding?
All you love is down
But I can't leave town
No, I guess I'll spend my days
Southern dreaming
Now I said darling
Would you keep on pushing?
Would you keep on riding?
All you love is down
But I can't leave town
No, I guess I'll spend my days
Southern dreaming

"From the prairie city of Saskatoon, Canada come the Sheepdogs, 4 young gentlemen who revel in the joy of rock n roll so wholeheartedly, it's downright contagious. Sporting the long-haired looks of their musical forefathers, the lads make the most of their 2 guitars, bass and drums combo. Soulful vocalizations, everybody harmonizing, old-school guitar chops winding, riffing and chiming, and a grooving rhythm section that keeps it all going. Having already cemented their reputation as dynamic performers in their hometown, the Sheepdogs now turn their attention to spreading their affection for rock n roll cross-country. They have spent the last year covering the great white north, playing from Vancouver island to Montreal. They have played festivals, headlined a bill during 2007's Junofest, opened for the likes of Matt Mays and el Torpedo, and performed before thousands at 2006's Saskatoon Centennial Celebration. In January 2007 they released their debut LP Trying to Grow, a collection of guitar-driven originals that recall classic rockers like the Stones, CCR, and the Kinks. The album's title-track was featured in a province-wide campaign in their native Saskatchewan. Early 2008 has already seen the completion of their follow-up album, which mixes elements of southern rock and moody soul with gleeful straight-forward rockers. Once again, the boys are hitting the road, spreading their rock n roll revival to the rest of Canada."
