If You Could
by Jesse Kongos
The day to day gets you feeling down
It's been a week since you went to town
It's getting late so why haven't you called your friends
Why haven't you made amends
It's not the way that you saw your life
The one you love, she's not your wife
You only wanted to make your father proud
And buy your mom a new house
If you could do it again
How would you do it
Would you go back
And do what you never got round to
But you know, yeah you know that's not how it works
If you could be someone else
Would you do it
If you could choose from a shelf
Would you take a new self
But you know, yeah you know that's not how it works
You want to start it all over again, but yeah
You know that's not how it works
You could have been a contender, man
You would have gathered a million fans
You might have taken a rocket to outer space
Had in your pocket the human race
I guess depends on what you expect
But either way you must accept
It's hard to stand by and see it all go so fast
Not easy watching the Heropass

KONGOS - Let's Run Away (Official Lyric Video)

Let's Run Away by Johnny Kongos A long year, time was racing Lost at sea, thousands of faces The days are different but always the same And time is just a song that’s driving me insane From Warsaw to Maine to Arkansas I’ve never missed you more… no never missed you more Something is lost, it’s a game of telephone And when you call, reminds me I’m never home My words don’t often work and only fo...

This is from virtual concert we did a while back. Song: Fools Album: 1929, Pt. 2 Writer: Dylan Kongos You’ve got no money right now Got a feeling, a good feeling it’s coming somehow Carry on your way with a strut in your step Repping a name and a ring and a cigarette Something’s hiding from you Someone’s running from you Crazy, they’re all crazy They’re all Fools you say Like me, like them, lik...
KONGOS - If You Build It - Official Lyric Video
Переглядів 13 тис.Рік тому
by Jesse Kongos It's time to mobilize the forces For a leader to emerge It’s time to harness the horses Give direction to the young man's urge Either it's all important Or none of it is Refine, reduce, distill the harvest Give to each only what is his Why is sleep so tiring? Does anyone here understand the wiring? I am bored with taking two steps and turning on the third Let me jolt the wheel a...

Sometimes I wish I was worthy of running for office I would def ask ya'll for permission to make this my radical-leftist hippie scumbag socialist campaign song.
How is this song already over a decade old?! Where has the time gone?! I remember when this was used for WWE Extreme Rules
I finally found this song after first hearing it on a bus a decade ago. 😊
Eleven years and I'm still here on the regular for that accordion.
In your dreams!
I ❤ this, it’s like electric dirty folk music.
Wait this is South African? Omg!!
Muhteşem...
2024 here from Russia
Sorry, but not good at all. I love your old songs but this is not it, not it!

They should bring a mash-up with The Grand Tour. I got to know these guys because of them. Awesome intro by the way.
We are your fans, I am from Guatemala and I have 8 years hearing you
No just a song it is an energy ❤

Ask the alien "julie august". the ron is the facts.
Omg....intellectually you bore me to death.
Hey Sampa!!!?
I am on a iceberg going nowhere
"Now there ones more, and it feels like it's breaking me in two." THESE LYRICS ARE SO WELL STRUCTERED!!!
"I say I love you, but you don't need me to" hit me harddd
The intro pulled me into the song so quickly oh my goodness. This is THE summer song!!!
👏👏
Underrated but never forgotten!
Still listening 😎🤘
This song should be metalized...
Nathanial R. Is coming to Austin!
Terenwizja

FRR
Good music ❤
I like ❤
I love the song, but this video style is soooo freaking kool🎉
Still one of favorite all time video was “hey I don’t know”, because of the way you guys set up your videos on the guitars…gives an other worldly affect!!! Well, that it was their first vid I’d seen of Kongos, and I fell in love with you guys immediately!!! I do like the new release on the site though
Come back to Spokane WA
This song needs to last at least an hour more...
one of best songs evar
no comments is the only comment , cant comment perfection )
Could someone explain what on earth is going on with the rhythm of this masterpiece? I dont have the vocabulary or in depth knowledge of music theory to figure it out, but the way the drums seam to fall in and out of time makes my brain so warm and fuzzy is just so 🥰🤌 id love to understanding how they achieve this, even if this comment is years old by the time you read it, please help 🙏
