'49 Lyrics


Written by J. John and J. Benjamin
We loaded rifles with our ragged britches on
We built the wagons, and we head to Cali-FOR-nia
I’ve got a lot to say, so you must sit and take it all
Your father looked at me like a thing that don’t belong
Some sorry sailor with no fortune for his daughter
I’ll take your words with me - I’ll cross the Rockies in the fall
To win my baby – I’ll find fortunes fit to take you home
Blood washes glitter from stone
Mad forces, bodies and bones
Blood washes glitter from stone
Four years and seven days since I left what was my home
Return to find you cavortin’ with another

He bent a knee for you – bought you a ring of solid gold
With that vein my fate pursued, I could have made five hundred more
You’re breaking my patience
You’re breaking my patience
You’re breaking my patience DOWN

The Silent Comedy began casually in 2005 as a side project of the Post-Punk group, Dehra Dun. Started as a recording project for songwriting brothers J. John and J. Benjamin, the band quickly gained steam as word of their energetic live show spread. Eventually Dehra Dun went by the wayside, and the brothers focused their efforts fully on The Silent Comedy. Since that time they have grown to playing consistently sold-out hometown shows, touring incessantly and performing with the likes of Flogging Molly, The Black Keys, Common, MGMT, Cold War Kids, and more.
