about

As Memoirs' heroine finds herself at the bottom of a long downward spiral, the dreamlike fog of timeless desert outlaws and honky tonk angels melts away, leaving the harsh reality of a prosaic, modern day struggle with substance abuse, poverty, and single parenthood.

lyrics

Doin' Fine

I don't get out too much these days
No one I want to see
The truck don't sound too good anyway
It's gonna break down on me
He's cryin' in the back room
I'm cryin' on the front porch
The flies are findin' ways in
Through the holes in the screen door
It's gettin' late, and I'm just gettin' by
But hey I'm doin' fine

Things been headed south 'round here a long time
Since the day I turned 18
The bills and the weeds and the dishes are climbin' high
Someday they're gonna bury me
Not much in the kitchen but I got a
Six-pack of beer
Whatever's cheap this week's
Gonna be the best we got 'round here
It's getting late, and I'm just buyin' time
But hey, I'm doin' fine

chorus:
The horizon's stormy weather
I gotta get my act together before they
Take the baby away
I can lose myself, I can lose my mind but
I can't go back in time, it could
Happen any day
It's easy to see, this penny has lost its shine
But hey, I'm doin' fine

A rented couch and a borrowed life
Two souls shipwrecked at sea
Him sound asleep and my desperate mind
Playin' its tricks on me
Flippin' through the channels, must be something on TV
Turn off my phone, my sister's worried about me
It's gettin' late and I'm just gettin' high
But hey, I'm doin' fine

chorus:
The horizon's stormy weather
I gotta get my act together before they
Take the baby away
I can lose myself, I can lose my mind but
I can't go back in time, and I
Wouldn't anyway
It's easy to see, this penny has lost its shine
But hey, I'm doin' fine

Yeah the horizon is stormy weather
I gotta get my act together before they
Take my baby away
I can lose myself, I can lose my mind but
I can't turn back the tide, and I
Can't run away,
It's plain to see, this penny has lost its shine
But hey, I'm doin' fine

I'm doin' fi-i-ine, I'm doin' fine
Someday I'll fly-y-y, away I'll fly

I don't get out too much these days
No one I want to see

about

Jessie Wesloh Missoula, montana

Raised in the pines of northwest Montana on Pabst Blue Ribbon, wood fires, and Willie Nelson records, Jessie Wesloh serves up unpretentious stories of lovers, liars, and losers, darkened by the rural realities of violence and substance abuse. Wesloh pulls influences from the Nashville Sound to the Bakersfield Sound to Outlaw Country, for unvarnished songs no one can say aren't "real country." ... more
