Wicked Dreams

I was a young man out of college
I just needed to get out
Kept a guitar in my pocket
But it didn’t make a sound
Started up in California
And I went from town to town
Ended up in Louisiana
Where my feet never hit the ground
I don’t need no one
(I don’t need no one)
I don’t need a reason to identify
With the troubles in my life
Or the wicked dreams that refuse to die
The future came too quickly
And I had to get a job
Corporations came to find me
And I tried out them all
But I didn’t feel happy
No I didn’t feel sane
So I ran to Oklahoma
Cause back then life was still a game
I don’t need no one
(I don’t need no one)
I don’t need a reason to identify
With the troubles in my life
Or the wicked dreams that refuse to die
Settled down in Colorado
It’s the place that I call home
There’s beauty and adventure
With a different kind of tone
I don’t need no one
(I don’t need no one)
I don’t need a reason to identify
With the troubles in my life
I don’t need no one
(I don’t need no one)
I don’t need a reason to identify
With the troubles in my life
Or the wicked dreams that refuse to die

Still My Girl

I love the way you look at the TV
But you never watch the news
I love the way you judge the people
Who would never try to hurt you
It’s ok dear
Cause you’re still my girl
I love the way you go to church
When you don’t believe that prayers get answered
And the way you sing their songs
Like you just wrote them on a napkin
It’s ok dear
Cause you’re still my girl
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
The way you do all the things you do
You don’t know what you got me into
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Cause you’re still my girl
I love the empty bottle of booze
When you claim that you quit drinking
And the way you cover it up
With a fresh stain on the landing
It’s ok dear
I’ll clean it up again
I love the way you write your tests
With no apparent answers
Just cause you smoke
Doesn’t mean you’ll get cancer
It’s ok dear
Cause you’re still my girl
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
The way you do all the things you do
You don’t know what you got me into
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Cause you’re still my girl

Feel Like Gold

I don't wanna take your time
But I want you to take up mine
Uh huh
I don't mean to kill your day
But you live in this place
So do I
Don't wanna be the lonely creature standing in the shade
Is that how you want to leave this place?
Don't need no time
Don't need no space
No bad reaction
With little faith
Don't need no flowers
We're not going rogue
Just need to feel right
Feel like gold
Things are so unkind
And it seems less together this time
Uh huh
And if we stick to hate
Then all that's left to do
Is wait and see
Don't want to be the Roman Empire fallen into dust
Is there no one left out here to trust
Don't need no time
Don't need no space
No bad reaction
With little faith
Don't need no flowers
We're not going rogue
Just need to feel right
Feel like gold
Oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh
Don't need no time
Don't need no space
No bad reaction
With little faith
Don't need no flowers
We're not going rogue
Just need to feel right
Feel like gold

Andy Sydow Denver, Colorado
Americana, rock, singer-songwriter Andy Sydow is a jack-of-all-trades. Throughout the course of a show he's known to croon an audience with acoustic guitar ballads, play a few shredding slide guitar solos and even sit down at the keys to show off his surprising boogie-woogie piano chops. Sydow draws comparisons to voices like Paul Simon, mixed with a roots rock vibe reminiscent of Tom Petty. ... more
