Roll a number, write another song like Jimmy heard the day he caught the tropes:

• Face on the Cover: Their albums tend to have pictures of them on the cover, such as Mosely Shoals, which show them in front of the Leamington Spa.

  Stepping through the door like a troubadour
  Whiling just an hour away
  Looking at the trees on the roadside
  Feeling it's a holiday
  You and I should ride the coast
• Uncommon Time: "The Riverboat Song" is in 6/4.

Saturday afternoon, the sunshine pours like wine
Through your window
And I know golden June can turn an empty gray
Against your window
And I feel like
I'm on the outside
Of the circle
