Star In A New Heathens Video -- Proud Highway
Thursday, February 25, 2010

Friends, I want you to be in the little YouTube video I'm making for the song Proud Highway, which is on the new record Hello Disaster.

Here's how it will work. The video will feature clips of different folks each lip-syncing a line from the song (lyrics posted below).

If you want to be in the video, please video yourself lip-syncing some or all of Proud Highway and e-mail it to me at newheathens(at)gmail.com.

Get a free download of the song from our MySpace site http://www.myspace.com/thenewheathens, download it for $0.99 off iTunes, or e-mail me at newheathens(at)gmail.com and I'll send you an MP3.

Videos must be compatible with Mac's iMovie.

Can't lip-sync? Send me a video of you playing air-guitar. Can't play air-guitar? Send me a video of you dancing. Can't dance? Send me a video of you doing something fun. Keep it clean, we're out of our blue phase.

DEADLINE: FRIDAY, MARCH 12, 2010.

I'll post the video on Thursday, March 18, the day of our Disaster Release show at the Lakeside Lounge at 9 p.m.


PROUD HIGHWAY

Take the proud highway
Gets you where you're going
Take the proud highway
Hammer down you're gone

You can come
And you can go
That's all right by me
But don't say yes
And then say no
I can't stand duality
I wouldn't mind
To spend your time
I can't speak for you
The proud highway is out the door my friend
And you are free to choose

To take the proud highway
Gets you where you're going
Take the proud highway
Hammer down you're gone

Rest stop
Truck stop
Engine block
Classic rock
Lug nuts
Bug guts
White cross
Cheesy puffs
Butt-cramp
RV camp
Runaway truck ramp
Trucker tan
Minivan
Take me to the promised land

On the proud highway
Gets you where you're going
Take the proud highway
Hammer down you're gone

Black ice
Jesus Christ
Something in the headlights
Little town
Broke down
Tow yard
Tow pound
Stay awake
Don't be late
Lost on the interstate
Too much speed
Cop sees
"License registration please."

I drive fast and I take chances
That's the way I live
And if you want to ride with me
I'll give you all I got to give
But if you've got somewhere else to be
Put your signal on and go
The proud highway will take you there
I might see you up the road

On the proud highway
Gets you where you're going
Take the proud highway
Hammer down you're gone

On the proud highway
Gets you where you're going
Take the proud highway
Hammer down you're gone

Proud highway
Take the proud highway

Hammer down you're gone
Hammer down you're gone
Hammer down you're gone
On and on and on
