Description
Recently called San Antonio's Cinderella band, Hodge Podge started out as a "hodge podge" of musicians playing with local bands who had a desire to play something different. The name stuck and it was the beginning of a new and exciting sound. A mix of Blues, Southern Rock and Americana, Hodge Podge plays the old and new with driving roadhouse licks. Different and exciting is the only way to explain it.
Lyrics
Old lady Johnson lives up the road , up around the bend, take the old Indian trial, take it all the way to the end You'll find a log cabin there, glowing in the moon light, but beware of the place my friend, you can only find it at night Chorus For thirty pieces of silver she can cast an evil spell, for thirty pieces of silver she'll call on the powers of hell, for thirty pieces of silver she can make a good man lie, for thirty pieces of silver.. if you ask me........ the price is to high.... Some say she made a pack with the devil, some say it's an old wifes tale. others say she's so evil, she'll be denied at the gates of hell. Reverend Thomson went crusading one day, to save us all from sin, he was seen walking her way and never heard from again.. Chorus Some say she was born that way, some say she had a hard life, other say she killed her daddy with a rusty boning knife. They say she had a lover once and something went wrong, she was seen dragging and old green bag when she diappeared in the bog Chorus
