Movin' Target has just released their new CD, UnPegged, which has been in process for almost a year.

Movin' Target has the blend of genres, vocals and new material that will keep your patrons locked in from the first song till the last. The smooth vocals of Mike Arterbury, the flexible and acrobatic vocals of Mark Arterbury, stylistic performances of Jim Wyly and Eddie Penix, some tasteful Fiddlin’ by John Christian, the somewhat hard edge of Eddie Penix on the bass, the Harp from Riley Hickerson and the creative drum spins of Gerald Lowen, keeps the sounds fresh and interesting through out the evening. Catch a Ride on the Movin' Target Train. Movin’ Target performs in several different formats. You might find Jim Wyly doing a single singer songwriter act, or Jim, Mike and Mark doing a trio or several different acoustic variations, besides the main band performances..

Lyrics
Red Water River Queen Verse 1 D Em G Went down to the river last night, Just to have a myself good time Thought I’d throw down a buck or two, And let it ride Six hours later, I looked at the clock, it was half past three The money came, the money went I just couldn’t break free Chorus C G D Red Water River Queen, wins the day She gives it all up, then takes it away Red Water River Queen, be rich or poor She’ll take your money, then show you the door Oooooooooooooooh Red Water River Queen Red………Redwater……..Red Water River Queen Bridge Bm A G Am She’ll give you money, She’ll give you stars, She’ll give you drinks flowing from the bar She’ll give you jackpots begging you to stay While your money slowly slips away Instrumental: Bm A G A twice Verse 2 D Em G I’m sittin here on the riverbank Watching that red water flow My pockets empty, my paycheck gone Got nothing left to blow That crazy lady got a hold of me And took me for a ride I just went down to the river To have myself a good time Chorus C G D Red Water River Queen, wins the day She gives it all up, then takes it away Red Water River Queen, be rich or poor She’ll take your money, then show you the door Oooooooooooooooh Red Water River Queen Red………Redwater……..Red Water River Queen 2 progressions I’m sittin’ here watching that red water flow Takin’ my money down to the Gulf of Mexico Oooooooooooooooh Red Water River Queen Red………Redwater……..Red Water River Queen
