about

I wrote an old timey blues song and then put too much reverb on it.

lyrics

Leave them on the table
Don’t you ever come back ‘round here
‘Round here
I don’t think I’m able
Don’t wanna hear your voice in my ears
My ears
Oooh
Oooh

Going anywhere else
Anywhere else but with me
With me
Sleeping at your sister’s
In a little place by the sea
The sea
Oooh
Oooh

Well you said I gave you nothing
But that’s what you get for free
And I don’t believe in nothing
‘Cause you won’t believe in me
Would you do me one last favour
When you go and let me be?
Well if you walk on out that door,
Would you leave behind your keys?

Left them on the table
Said you’d never come back ‘round hear
‘Round here
I don’t think I’m able
I wanna hear your voice in my ears
My ears
Come home
Come home
