about

John D. Lamb’s CD, Feel That is the winner of the 2007 Detroit Music Award for Outstanding Acoustic/Folk Recording. " … Lamb nails the exhilaration of the Up North experience as the driver in one song heads for the ski slopes and the good times, while wary of the whitetails on the road….With a laid-back, made-in-Detroit drawl, his voice and lyrics invite comparisons to populist songwriters ranging from Mellencamp to Steve Earle, with roots buried in the heart of the country." Northern Express Weekly, Traverse City. Review of A Novel Day "…writes songs as if he's spent his whole life on the road … demonstrates Lamb's finesse with simple, evocative and catchy songcrafting…Detroit Metro Times.

lyrics

Look Out for Deer

I’ll be comin’ round Boyne Mountain when I come
‘Takes three hours from the thumb
Long as I survive I-75
Look out for deer

Up until I hit the north of Grayling
Clear skies, smooth sailing
Then came the clouds, snowplows
Look out for deer

When you’re driving up here
Don’t you brake for me, dear dear
Why do you think I drive a four-wheel drive Mountaineer?

When I got off in Gaylord
The thought occurred; nothin’ ventured
Nothin’ gained, there’s freezing rain
Look out for deer

I’m on my way down 32
131’s then just a few miles from you
Are you on the hill? Are you in the lift line?
Look out for dear

When you’re driving up here
Don’t you brake for me, dear dear
Why do you think I drive this four-wheel drive like Paul Revere?

I’ll be comin’ round Boyne Mountain when I come
And when I find you we will make that run
Someone will ask, “Who’s the man in the mask?”
Look out for dear

She’ll be wearing a red parka’s what she said
Meet me out on Hemlock once I get my family fed
No easy task, ‘make love last
Look out for dear

When you’re driving up here
Don’t you brake for me, dear dear
Why do you think I drive a four-wheel drive…?

John D. Lamb Detroit, Michigan

Lamb spins a tale of love and woe full of true irony and forlorn humor…Lamb has given us a slice of life in which we find common ground, but is anything but commonplace…
