Sweet Salvation AM Radio Playing on my porch step Me I got the rocken chair blues It's a lonesome old country song that fades in and I'll harmonize till the moon shines through Cause if it don't matter in the morning Then it don't matter when its gone And I got a sweet sweet salvation to know that I aint no lost child I got a sweet sweet salvation to know I ain't your idea Now the sun is a setting low and I hear the thunder rolling in They say rain will change your direction but I'll keep my brim pointed low Cause if it don't matter in the morning.... And I got a sweet sweet salvation....

Slow On You 03:33
Slow on you Snap my fingers Cross my toes Where I end up Ain't nobody knows Dance on me Baby then you'll See I'm your very last heartbeat Ohh... Baby Take it Slow Cause a deaf man don't hear no doors When you walk past keep your shadow low hand in hand enjoy my jam cause when I get locked in Then your feeling it Ohh baby take it slow Slow when your hugging and kissing on me Slow when you beg for something sweet Slow me down when you feel my heat Slow on you getting slow on me Now I've been just scratching my head Why nobody goes a jumping in my bed I feel like Ive reached that sitting limit Dig on me baby Till you feel it Oh.... Baby take it slow Slow.....

Sweetheart Dance Got me a pretty woman Slide around tenderly Gives me my meat in the morning But leaves ice cubes on my seat Got me a strong man He stands six foot two He is the other side of the quarter though He never tells me what to do And I’ll never understand That Sweetheart Dance, C’mon Now loving you, it ain’t an easy road Your rude to my sisters in your worn out coat Now a good man, he would take me out Show me what being a woman is all about Now please baby, baby please You ain’t got to treat me like a servant on his knees I have loved some woman, but I loved you right But woman how am I supposed to love you When your never home at night And I’ll never understand that Sweetheart Dance Now listen Baby I will tell you what you need No you listen boy, I ain’t your broken cup of tea But I stand tall But your shoes is so small Baby I am your man, Don’t you see Yes sugar and that’s why you will never lays your hands on me

Down and Dirty Blues One pillow and a blanket please gotta get myself out of New Orleans cold winds got me settled down but I'm never going to make it out of this old town Meet a blues man on the corner tonight said he'd sell me something to make me feel alright So I bit and he chewed and now were running down the street with them dogs on our shoes Don't get down and dirty Down and dirty blues Broken bus on a backseat stuff You know hell ain't never been enough for me Always riding that hardest road Carrying off such a heavy load Now backdown miss blue jean girl You never want to get yourself stuck into this world Find yourself an honest man Build you up a house just as quick as he can Don't get down and dirty Down and dirty blues Sixty dollar passage on the 203 take you into the night quick and safely Then your gone and you hold on pray the lights don't ever come unstrung For while a soldier is quick to die a rambling man never bothers to try Said while a soldier is quick to die a rambling man never bothers to try Cause it's a quick joke a light for your smoke then its down the next hole Oh Down Down The sun ain't never going to come around

Move On 05:23
Move On Pretty Country Store Pretty Little Girl Standing in the aisle With a juke box glare Got a hand on the oven One on the tree I'd take her back If She wasn't waiting for me Move on Head to the car Smile as I glare At that sun With his hangover stare Out picking trash In a cornfield blaze Id be heading north If she wasn't waiting for me Move on... Oh Lord the things that I'd do If I didn't have me nothing to lose Paycheck comes just once a week Provides me enough Just to eat Myself back into the log Life's a spin when she gone Move on Lord the things I'd do If I didn't have me nothing to lose Move On

about

In August 2015 The Rebels released a new EP entitled, “Move On,” the first full-band studio recording with the original core members. This most recent release has Jered Shaw, David Koenig, and Susan Renee-Thiede reworking four of their classic songs and adding a new baby to the bunch, “Slow On You.” Opening with a riff stolen straight from Rich Robinson’s guitar case, this new track melds the salty-drawl of Shaw’s voice and the sweet glow of Renee-Thiede into a heaving love ballad.

Nothing worth doing is ever easy, and that includes the development of this EP. The recording experience turned gruesome following a hard drive crash and most of the recordings lost. But with patience, positive attitudes and the benefit of producer/engineer John Swamy, the trio picked up the pieces and turned a little extra studio time into the polished “Move On” EP.

The EP’s title track profiles the energy of the band through bruising harmonica, potent vocals and a passionate groove, one that provides both the stamina and ideal rhythm for chopping the nights firewood. Rounding out the EP are “Sweetheart Dance”, “Down and Dirty Blues” and "Sweet Salvation." The swampy, harp-laden blues of “Sweetheart Dance” outlines a stormy relationship that erupts into a passionate exchange of hostility between vocalists Shaw and Renee-Thiede. With the gas pedal on the floor, "Down & Dirty Blues" is a rousing acoustic based rocker that accents Shaw’s vocal grit and spotlights Koenig’s rhythmic leads. Then there's the opening track,"Sweet Salvation." The soulful country ballad sets the scene on a moonlit front porch for lead female vocalist Susan Renee-Thiede to proclaim, "If it don't matter in the morning, then it don't really matter at all."
