Bill Doss

My heart goes out to friends and family of Bill Doss. Goat recorded our second record in his attic (I Got the Recollection of the Blood of the Lamb). He was generous, kind and a hell of a singer, songwriter, producer, etc - he did it all. I really loved singing "Sin City" with him at a Graham Parsons tribute show. Still can't believe he's gone. Here are the lyrics to Sin City -

THIS OLD TOWN’S FILLED WITH SIN
IT’LL SWALLOW YOU IN
IF YOU’VE GOT SOME MONEY TO BURN
TAKE IT HOME, RIGHT AWAY
YOU’VE GOT THREE YEARS TO PAY
BUT SATAN IS WAITING HIS TURN

THIS OLD EARTHQUAKE’S GONNA LEAVE ME IN THE POORHOUSE
IT SEEMS LIKE THIS WHOLE TOWN’S INSANE
ON THE THIRTY FIRST FLOOR
A GOLD PLATED DOOR
WON’T KEEP OUT THE LORDS BURNING RAIN

THE SCIENTISTS SAY, IT’LL ALL WASH AWAY
BUT WE DON’T BELEIVE ANY MORE
‘COS WE’VE GOT OUR RECRUITS
AND OUR GREEN MOHAIR SUITS
SO PLEASE SHOW YOUR I.D. AT THE DOOR

A FRIEND CAME AROUND 
TRIED TO CLEAN UP THIS TOWN
HIS IDEAS MADE SOME PEOPLE MAD
HE TRUSTED HIS CROWD
SO HE SPOKE RIGHT OUT LOUD
AND THEY LOST THE BEST FRIEND THEY HAD
