Some men drift like tumbleweeds Chasing dreams and fantasies Restless as a northern on the prairie Resting under western stars Out here where the wild things are Feels safer than where any road will get me Lord, let me live a life that’s Homesteady Whistles through the evergreen in autumn The song that always lifts me from rock bottom Maybe there are pines somewhere that sing the same But I don’t care Some things a man knows just can’t be forgotten Some men drift like tumbleweeds Chasing dreams and fantasies Restless as a northern on the prairie Resting under western stars Out here where the wild things are Feels safer than where any road will get me Lord, let me live a life that’s Homesteady Resting under western stars Out here where the wild things are Feels safer than where any road will get me Lord, let me live a life that’s Homesteady Lord, let me live a life that’s Homesteady #FlatlandCavalry #Homesteady </video> <video> Flatland Cavalry - Morning With You (Work Tape) (Official Audio) Description: New album 'Flatland Forever' out now, listen here: https://flatlandcavalry.lnk.to/FlatlandForever Connect with Flatland Cavalry TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@flatlandcavalry Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/flatlandcavalry Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/FlatlandCavalry Twitter: https://x.com/FlatlandCavalry Official Website: https://www.flatlandcavalry.com/ Lyrics: A fresh pot of Folgers, the smell of the rain Blowin’ through the window the sound of a train I can see a new day through the promise in your eyes Wish I could cling to this moment for the rest of my life I used to think the good life was burnin’ up the night But runnin’ with the devil is a dark and lonely ride Sometimes it takes an angel to change your point of view Now I live for mornings with you Summer to Fall, Winter to Spring You make wakin’ up feel like a dream The still of the sunrise, the peace that it brings Quiet as a prayer, the kind that leaves your heart singin’ I used to think the good life was burnin’ up the night But runnin’ with the devil is a dark and lonely ride Sometimes it takes an angel to change your point of view Now I live for mornings with you And if I get to heaven, it’ll feel like déjà vu If it’s anything, oh, anything If it’s anything like mornings with you #FlatlandCavalry #MorningsWithYou #FlatlandForever Music video by Flatland Cavalry performing Morning With You (Work Tape) (Audio).© 2015 Flatland Cavalry, Inc. </video> <video> Flatland Cavalry - Live from The Ryman Description: Flatland Cavalry live from The Ryman on February 10, 2024 New album 'Flatland Forever(more)' out now, listen here: https://flatlandcavalry.lnk.to/FlatlandForevermore Follow Flatland Cavalry: https://www.flatlandcavalry.com https://www.facebook.com/FlatlandCavalry https://instagram.com/flatlandcavalry https://x.com/FlatlandCavalry https://www.tiktok.com/@flatlandcavalry #FlatlandCavalry #FlatlandForever #FlatlandForeverMore </video> <video> Flatland Cavalry - One I Want (Audio) Description: New album 'Flatland Forever(more)' out now, listen here: https://flatlandcavalry.lnk.to/FlatlandForevermore Connect with Flatland Cavalry TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@flatlandcavalry Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/flatlandcavalry Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/FlatlandCavalry Twitter: https://x.com/FlatlandCavalry Official Website: https://www.flatlandcavalry.com/ Lyrics: When I say I want you, girl I mean it. I say I love you, you're gonna feel it. Each and everyday I go out of my way, above and beyond. so you don't have to wonder, you’re the one I want. I’m gonna write you love songs, To show my feelings. I could tell you, But I'd rather sing it. Throw you're name in the chorus of a love song story so catchy make everybody wanna sing along. Just so you don't have to wonder, you're the one I want. Don't have all the answers, when I take the floor. And when it comes to uncertainty, I've never been more sure. Darling when it comes to you, I've never had one doubt. You're the face of the woman in my dreams, I've been dreaming about. Gonna take you dancing, when we get old. You'll cry because you're happy How you're love has grown. And I'll kiss you right on the forehead say, "Hey baby what's wrong?" You'll say, "nothing, I just love you, because you never made me wonder, you're the one I want" #FlatlandCavalry #OneIWant #FlatlandForever Music video by Flatland Cavalry performing One I Want (Audio).© 2024 Flatland Cavalry, Inc., under exclusive license to Interscope Records </video> <video> Flatland Cavalry - Mountain Song (Official Audio) Description: New album 'Flatland Forever' out now, listen here: https://flatlandcavalry.lnk.to/FlatlandForever Connect with Flatland Cavalry TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@flatlandcavalry Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/flatlandcavalry Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/FlatlandCavalry Twitter: https://x.com/FlatlandCavalry Official Website: https://www.flatlandcavalry.com/ Lyrics: Mountain, mountain, it’s good to see your face Mighty wonder, high above the plains Mountain, mountain, could I take your place?

Description

Lubbock roots-country outfit Flatland Cavalry straddles that line between the Panhandle and the badlands of West Texas with their bright, earthy country ballads and gritty folk ramblers. Vocalist and chief songwriter Cleto Cordero’s honest, smooth songwriting revolves around the vernacular world of West Texas that he’s constructed with dusty, sun-soaked character sketches, brooding self-evaluations, and candid love songs that all have the ability to turn into singalong anthems.

Formed in 2012, guitarist Reid Dillon, bassist Jonathan Saenz, and drummer Jason Albers joined Cordero, quickly garnering the attention of the masses with the release of the debut EP, Come May, in the spring of 2015. Building off successes of Come May, the group released Humble Folks in 2017 and have added Wesley Hall on fiddle and Adam Gallegos as a utility player. In early 2019 the band released their second full length album Homeland Insecurity, followed by their third album Welcome to Countryland in 2021.
