Lyrics: (Kendell Marvel, Dan Auerbach, John Anderson) I might a told you that I loved you Might a meant it at the time I’d a promised you forever Lord I mighta changed my mind Wasn’t nothing that you did or didn’t do Just always had a hard time with the truth I know you wanted to believe me Wanted me to be the one I love you comes so easy The way it rolls right off the tongue Naw I never meant to make you play the fool You know I gotta a hard time with the truth If I’m being honest, it’s easier to lie Than to go and break a promise, Go and make you cry It ain’t like I don’t like lyin’ next to you Just always had a hard time with the truth When I look into the mirror Sometimes I don’t like what see It’s like I’m lookin’ at the devil Staring right straight back at me I keep praying that one day he turns me loose I’ve always had a hard time with the truth If I’m being honest, it’s easier to lie Than to go and break a promise, Go and make you cry It ain’t like I don’t like lyin’ next to you But forever’s just too much to live up to Somewhere deep inside you always knew Just always had a hard time with the truth

Let It Go 02:51
Lyrics: (Kendell Marvel, Dan Auerbach, Bobby Wood) When somebody’s done broke your heart It ain’t easy lettin’ down your guard I know...Let it go There really isn’t any movin’ on It ain’t over till the hurtin’s gone And your close...Let it go Sometimes it’s best if things unravel Sometimes it’s best to let it fall apart You gotta let them old memories die Cause It’ll only eat you up inside if you don’t...let it go Sometimes it’s best if things unravel Sometimes it’s best to let it fall apart When somebody’s done broke your heart It ain’t easy letting down your guard I know...Let it go Let it go Let it go

Lyrics: (Kendell Marvel, Dan Auerbach, Pat McLaughlin) We’d go out and tie us one on Probably stay a little too long Then we’ll have it out in the car Both of us will take it too far Always pouring salt on the wound Hurting me like I’m hurting you Now we can make each other so sad And still hang on when things go bad Cause when it’s good, it’s so good Both of us could find a million reasons not to stay We won’t find another love that feels this way Cause when it’s good, it’s so good When you’re lying here in my arms I don’t have to look very far To know that there ain’t nobody who Makes me burn the way you do Cause when it’s good, it’s so good Both of us could find a million reasons not to stay We won’t find another love that feels this way Cause when it’s good, it’s so good Baby it’s so good It’s so good

Lyrics: (Kendell Marvel, Dan Auerbach, Al Anderson) I’ve been drinking all afternoon She been known to howl at the moon Feeling so broken lonely and weak She’s gonna put a hurtin’ on me There’s blood in the water She just out here looking for a thrill If I don’t go, I know I’m a goner She’s about to come in for a kill I know she knows, Her way round the dark Love you, leave you, Battered and scarred Watching, waiting, hear she come now It’s too late I’m going down There’s blood in the water She’s just out here looking for a thrill If I don’t go, I know I’m a goner She’s about to come in for the kill There’s blood in the water She’s just out here looking for a thrill If I don’t go, I know I’m a goner She’s about to come in for the kill (repeat chorus)

Lyrics: (Barry Gibb, Maurice Gibb, Robin Gibb) © 1968 Universal Music Publishing Group The preacher talked to me and he smiled He Said, "Come and walk with me, come and walk one more mile Now for once in your life you're alone And you ain't got a dime, and no time for the phone" I've just got to get a message to you, hold on, hold on One more hour and my life will be through, hold on, hold on I told him I'm in no hurry And if I broke her heart, won't you tell her I'm sorry For once in my life I'm alone, And I've got to let her know just in time before I go I've just got to get a message to you, hold on, hold on One more hour and my life will be through, hold on, hold on Well I laughed but no that didn't hurt And it's only her love that keeps me wearing this dirt Now I'm crying but deep down inside Well I did it to him, now it's my turn to die I've just gotta get a message to you, hold on, hold on One more hour and my life will be through, hold on, hold on I've just gotta get a message to you, hold on, hold on One more hour and my life will be through, hold on, hold on

Cadillac'n 03:38
Lyrics: (Kendell Marvel , Dan Auerbach, Paul Overstreet) Drop it in drive, stomp it to the floor Rumble and the whine of that 454 Guitar in the back, drop top down Radio playing those solid gold sounds Cadillac’n Cadillac’n Baby’s on my right, wind in her hair Little short dress make me wanna stop somewhere Eyes on the road, hands on the wheel Ain’t no destination and it’s all downhill Cadillac’n Cadillac’n It’s a way of life, it’s a state of mind It’s a laid back feeling, a place in time Satisfaction, You can only find Cadillac’n Cadillac’n Uptown downtown, country side Wheat fields, corn fields, flying by Honkin’ horns from the semi trucks Trying to look down on my baby but they can’t keep up Cadillac’n Cadillac’n It’s a way of life, it’s a state of mind It’s a laid back feeling, a place in time Satisfaction, You can only find Cadillac’n Cadillac’n Polished chrome, in the sun Headed home, Honey here we come Cadillac’n Cadillac’n

Lyrics: (Kendell Marvel, Dan Auerbach, Ronnie Bowman) Well I passed you in the hallway Red gloss on your lips That ain’t perfume that I bought you I just caught a whiff I know where you’re going And I don’t care no more Stay out if you want to I won’t walk the floor You go on ahead and set me free If you know what’s good for me Honey it ain’t like I’m jealous I’m way past that place I can be the devil If you throw it in my face I’ve took all that I’ve taken And I won’t take no more When he drops you off tomorrow If he walks you to my door Girl you best make damn sure I don’t see If you know what’s good for me If you know what’s good for me You’d a done it from the start Instead of running round all over town Stomping on my heart What goes around is gonna come around Honey you can bet your ass There’s a slow train comin’ And that train’s coming fast You’d put me out of all my misery If you know what’s good for me If you know what’s good for me You’d a done it from the start Instead of runnin’ round all over town Stomping on my heart What goes around is gonna come around Honey you can bet your ass There’s a slow train comin’ And that trains coming fast You’d put me out of all my misery You go on ahead and set me free If you know what’s good for me You just let me be If you know what’s good for me

Lyrics: (Kendell Marvel, Dan Auerbach) If I die and go to heaven As soon as I walk through that gate And I lay eyes upon my maker First thing I’m gonna say Is thank you for that woman you put in my life She’s what kept me going Treated me so right Honey I could live forever And never love nobody else If god made anything better than you He must’ve kept it for himself The way you help me fight my demons Nurse me through the black and blue How you always know just what I’m needin’ And all the little lovin’ things you do Thank you for believing Never losing faith When I gave you every reason To go and walk away Honey I could live forever And never love nobody else If god made anything better than you He must’ve kept it for himself Baby I could live forever And never love nobody else If god made anything better than you He must’ve kept it for himself He must’ve kept it for himself

Easy Rider 03:33
Lyrics: (Kendell Marvel, Dan Auerbach, Pat McLaughlin) She was flying through the desert On a panhead painted red Her mama used to tell her ‘Bout running with the Grateful Dead She don’t hang around nowhere too long She’ll love you like the devil then she’s gone She won’t be no easy rider Got a heart, hard as hell She’s a die hard fly by nighter But she won’t be no easy rider She won’t be no easy rider She ran into a little bit of trouble down in Abeline She was the meanest little pistol packing woman they’d ever seen You might hold her but you won’t tie her down You’ll be the last to know when she blows town She won’t be no easy rider She’s got a heart hard as hell She’s a die hard fly by nighter She won’t be no easy rider No she won’t be no easy rider (Repeat Chorus)

Lyrics: (Kendell Marvel, Dan Auerbach, Ronnie Bowman) To be running wild Like a child, with a smile, On his face Roaming free, climbing trees Let the breeze, take me away Take me back to the roots of my raisin’ Back to a time before all my time was taken Jumping logs, petting dogs Catching frogs, down at the creek Skipping stones, singing songs My dad and mom were everything to me Take me back to the roots of my raisin’ Back to a time before all my time was taken Take me back to the roots of my raisin’ Back to a time before all my time was taken Flying kites, riding bikes Not thinking twice, bout my checking in When the day is done, What’s to come, Ain’t near as fun, as where you’ve been

about

Over the past two decades, Kendell Marvel has become one of the great storied songwriters in Nashville. For years, he’s quietly written massive hits for Country royalty – from George Strait to Jake Owen, Gary Allan to Chris Stapleton – but now has stepped from behind the pen and paper into the studio and spotlight. The result is Solid Gold Sounds – a stellar album that weaves a rich tapestry of deep southern songwriting with the unique gravity and talent Marvel brings as a one-of-a-kind performer.
