Lyrics: | Baby wants to play Got all her stuff on display Tryin' to get back the innocence She lost along the way Hey hey that's good enough for me She left a Christian family In Bristol, Tennessee Her mama prays to the good Lord To treat her mercifully Hey hey that's good enough for me Good enough; good enough for me Good enough; good enough for me Good enough; good enough for me She's forty-one in May My cougar ran away She didn't offer an explanation There wasn't nothin' to say Hey hey that's good enough for me Good enough; good enough for me Good enough; good enough for me Good enough; good enough for me |

Somewhere out on New Route 66, about 50 miles west of Sinatra and 75 miles east of Tom Waits, Swanson struts his swingin' and singin'. He loves Dave Frishberg songs and Johnny Walker in a tumbler. He'd like to hear Kurt Elling cover Stone Temple Pilots. Lonnie Johnson is God.
On his latest full-length release "We Can't Party Like We Used To" (2009 Acoustic SwaneeLand), Swanson pounds out 12 original vocal jazz cuts with a cool retro vibe. His bluesy vocals and tasty guitar licks remind of crooners past and present - Sinatra, Cole, John Pizzarelli come to mind - but his clever songwriting has a leaner, edgier feel to it that puts him squarely in the current century.
