    Jesse Dayton’s Beaumonster is filled with song interpretations that are part-greaser, a whole lotta twang, and quintessentially outlaw country badass. Beaumonster encapsulates a life filled with adventure and lore featuring some of the greatest musicians this world has ever known.

    This companion album finds Dayton performing songs written by the many talented musicians and songwriters featured throughout his memoir. The album zigs and zags from Waylon Jennings to Social Distortion and Doug Sahm to Willie Nelson — all who share a connection with the storied Beaumont guitar slinger.

lyrics

Leaving you, girl, headed down, down that road
You left me many burdens, and such a heavy load
And man it sure does wig me out
When I think about what went down

Crossroads of my life passed her
When a phase couldn't begin, ooh to recognize
Roll on through my mind
Till I took the time to concentrate on you

You can teach me lots of lessons
You can bring me lots of gold
But you just can't live in Texas
If you don't have a lot of soul

Leaving you now, I’m gonna leave you for the very last time
Leaving you girl, and really blowin’ your mind uh-huh
And girl where you're living now
You’re just finding out how the other half lives

Well you can teach me lots of lessons
You can bring me lots of gold
But you just can't live in Texas
If you don't have a lot of soul

Leaving you now, I said I’m gonna leave you
I’m gonna leave you for the very last time
Ooh leaving you girl, and really blowin’ your foxy mind
Some day a change will come
And you'll be by my side girl, one more time
Ooh I said a, I said a change will come
And you’ll be by my side one more time
Ooh you, a change will come, and you’ll be by my side
One more time
