about

Music and Lyrics by Dan Frechette. Violin arrangement by Laurel Thomsen.

lyrics

I've got sure fire way of taking 'til that little heart of mine is breaking.
I'm hard to take and shake and make myself get down.
I've got that old standby just waiting for a new flirtation with my satan
and I can't guarantee I won't run you around.

I've got that old campfire swaying and I'm drunk but I'm still playing.
Not caving in to the glare behind the dawn.
I'm going to write her an old time love line and sing it in a song a thousand times to make up for the times I put her on.

She's just a dreamer. I'm just a coffee in need of creamer.
I'm bitterly just hoping to get by.
She's had many years going crazy being treated just like a lady.
I'm hard to take on the ground my money's tied.
