Purveyor of the bakersfield sound, country singer-songwriter Dwight Yoakam grew up in Columbus, Ohio before heading west and finding a home two doors down in Bakersfield, CA. "Honky Tonk Man" and "Guitars and Cadillacs" are classic songs in their own right, but nearly every song Yoakam churns out stays true to his sound and finds popularity among modern country fans, despite the saturation of the pop-oriented contemporary Nashville sound. The most recent release, "Blame the Vain" continues in the routine of solid albums from Mr. Yoakam.

Home For Sale Lyrics
Dwight Yoakam
(dwight yoakam)
Home for sale
Thats much too large
Too many rooms
Big ole empty yard
Far more space
Than the owner needs
Price includes
All the memories
Home for sale
Restored like new
Just a place
Two lives outgrew
A change in heart
Forces move away
Would like to keep
But just cant stay
Listen close and you might hear the sound
Of what you think is rainfall leaking down
The roof is fine
Set aside your fears
Its just a few remaining tears
Home for sale
Not all that old
A familyss dream
Stands dark and cold
Scenic views
That go for free
Of all the love
That used to be
Home for sale
Thats much too large
