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.

Just Passing Time Lyrics
Dwight Yoakam
Just passin' time with everyone I meet.
I'm just passin' time as I wander through the streets.
Just passin' time: wrestlin' with thoughts that fight my sleep,
She left behind: just passin' time.
I'm just passin' time inside these empty rooms.
I'm just passin' time where small lost hopes stil loom.
Just passin' time appears unlikely to heal any wounds.
Love is kind: I'm just passin' time.
An' time hangs around more every day.
Why keep searching,
For a place that old thoughts might stay,
And not just end up right back in my heart's way?
Instrumental break.
Time don't ever answer nothin' new.
Least not here lately,
In any way that I could use,
For figurin' out what's left to lose.
I'm just passin' time with everyone I meet.
I'm just passin' time as I wander through the streets.
I'm just passin' time wrestlin' with thoughts that fight my sleep,
She left behind: I'm just passin' time.
