Formado em Northampton (um subúrbio de Boston, EUA) na segunda metade dos anos 80, o Buffalo Tom conseguiu gravar seu primeiro disco (homônimo) em 1988 pela gravadora Beggars Banquet. Na época, Bill Janovitz (guitarra e voz), Chris Colburn (baixo e vocais) e Tom Maginnis (bateria) eram fortemente influenciados por Hüsker Dü e, principalmente, Dinosaur Jr., tanto que J Mascis (vocalista, guitarrista, líder e dono do DJ) produziu o álbum. O resultado
Quatro anos de trabalho duro!Neste mês de maio fizemos quatro anos no ar. Continuamos trabalhando na divulgação deste maravilhoso instrumento, obrigado por participar da nossa história!

Yesterday I posted a request for the lyrics to I'm allowed by Buffalo Tom. Thanks to Ben McTernan ([email protected]) I'm able to post the song (along with the chords I figured out myself). Just like an earlier post, I know the song from a semi-unplugged album from a Dutch radio show (2 Meter Sessies, vol.5, Radio Records 477702-2, distributed by Sony), so it can slightly differ from the original.
I'm allowed - Buffulo Tom
G - G/F#
EmAm Waited for an answer Am/BCGG/F# Cause I waited twenty-five years EmAm They stopped my bleeding Am/BCGG/F# But could never stop all those tears
EmAm Waiting for the day when Am/BCGG/F# You came out from beneath all that weight EmAm I've tried to lift it Am/BCGAmC But it seems I got there too late
GAmC Just too late GAmC Just too late GAmC I'm allowed
G - G/F#
Came to the party But I got my own signals crossed Thought I was welcome But I felt like I should get lost
Know that I'm older 'Cause I feel that everywhere I could talk to no one 'Cause I knew not one person there
No one's there They just stared 'Cause they're allowed
As vivid as a car-wreck Watch them dripping off highway ramps She came to me smiling With her heart underneath both her hands
She spoke of a French boy At least two times through the night It could have been the liquor Or the music, but that is alright
