    'Where The Purple Flowers Grow' was written and recorded during the 2020 quarantine, and is the last batch of songs featuring the original 3 man Royal Horses lineup. At the time of making the record, the band had just come off of three years playing shows nonstop, and were as tight as ever. “Purple Flowers” features a heavier use of studio overdubs than any of the bands other work. Songwriter, Shelby Kemp, said about the album “Purple Flowers represents a pivot point in my approach to writing songs”. This album was a close collaboration between Royal Horses and New Orleans based producer John Michael Early.

lyrics

I’ve got loving, I’ve got loving on my mind.
I’ve got loving, babe, I’ve got loving on my mind.
I’ve got a girl coming by to see me,
And I tell you boys, she’s got the sweetest kind.

I’ve got a good thing, I’ve got a good thing going on.
I’ve got a good thing, I’ve got a good thing going on.
When she lays her head beside me,
I get to feeling like I’m living in an old love song.

She’s got a real fine car, brother it’ll go real fast.
She’s got a real fine car, brother it’ll go real fast.
If I don’t misbehave she’ll let me drive it,
And she’ll pay for the gas.

She don’t care if I stay out all night.
She don’t care if I stay out all night.
When I come home in the wee hour,
I always know she’s gonna leave me on a light.

I’ve got a good thing, I’ve got a good thing going on.
I’ve got a good thing, I’ve got a good thing going on.
When she lays her head beside me,
I get to feeling like I’m living in an old love song.

I’ve got loving, I’ve got loving on my mind.
I’ve got loving, babe, I’ve got loving on my mind.
I’ve got a girl coming by to see me,
And I tell you boys, you aught to see it,
I tell you boys, I would not lie,
I tell you boys, she’s got the sweetest kind.
