Marc Ford (born April 13, 1966), is an American blues-rock guitarist. He's a former lead guitarist of the rock and roll jam band The Black Crowes and the leader of his own bands: Burning Tree, Marc Ford & The Neptune Blues Club, Jefferson Steelflex, Fuzz Machine, Marc Ford & The Sinners.
Ford was born in Long Beach, California, United States.
Ford began his career with the blues-rock outfit Burning Tree in the late 1980s. A power trio featuring Ford on guitars and vocals, Mark Dutton on bass and Doni Gray on drums, Burning Tree released their self-titled debut album on Epic Records in 1990. A commercial failure but a critical success, Burning Tree allowed Ford and Co. to tour extensively throughout most of 1990 and 1991. The band's career was cut short when Ford left to join The Black Crowes, whom Burning Tree had opened for on its first (and only) tour.
Everytime I turn around
The man tries to get me down
Just can't see your face
Blinded by the sun
Leaving on the run
And I can't remember this place
Won't take me to the other side
let 'em go, let 'em ride
Won't you take me to the other side
Pretty mama, the wind won't you let me ride
Before slow down before I wreck
Driving on the river's edge
Mam says come back home
But I can't keep from running fast
Burning up these years
Guy's un uncle sam of the road
Won't take me to the other side
let 'em go, let 'em ride
Won't you take me to the other side
Let me ride...
The Cowboy you give a name
Nothing ever stays the same
Except the rain falling down
Boys so damn close
You can't keep from going on
Gotta keep the hammer down
To take me to the other side
let 'em go, let 'em ride
Won't you take me to the other side
Let me ride...
To take me to the other side
let 'em go, let 'em ride
