about

Robert Cain (the guy) founded Cain's Brewery in the mid 1800s and it made him a millionaire. A century and a half later, in 2017, Jaime and I moved into a small flat above a pub in that same brewery and lived there for a few months until the building was sold to be renovated. This song was written and recorded inside that flat with the ghost of Robert Cain himself playing an accordion part. Don't listen for it, it was deleted for the final mix. Turns out he's crap on the accordion.
-Jason

lyrics

Some people got a houseful of gold
He traded all of his for a hand to hold
He never looks back, never gets old
Never lets the man get a hold of his soul
I'm just hanging out with Robert Cain
He promised me that everything would stay the same

We visit every couple of days
His wisdom flows out of the haze
He talks about love
Knows that it’s true
He looks at us and tells us that we know it too
We’re just hanging out with Robert Cain
He promised us that everything would stay the same
Eat drink be merry too
Maybe in the morning I will marry you

He says life is a river
But don’t try to swim
Just let it carry you along
Take a look around before it's gone
If a rock gets in your way, just sway
Don't be afraid

Some people got a houseful of gold
All I need is a hand to hold
I'm giving you mine
You're giving me yours
We're getting in a boat and we're throwing away the oars
We’re just hanging out with Robert Cain
He promised us that everything would stay the same
Eat drink be merry too
Maybe in the morning I will marry you

Ooh, Robert Cain
Ooh, Robert Cain
Ooh, Robert Cain
We’re just hanging out with Robert Cain
