lyrics

Asleep at the Wheel

Well I used to be your sugar daddy
‘keep you around to make love to me
now I pay your way and I make your meals
to watch you there, spinning your wheels
yea I pay you baby to treat me bad
and nothing’s ever seemed so sad

There must be something running in my family
diggin’ dirt for something sweet
‘cause something weak makes me so strong
to keep on hanging on so long
yea you bring me down and you raise me up
and all I want is that empty cup

chorus

Well my heart is heavy but my mind’s made up
‘cause you treat me like a pickup truck
And my mind’s made up but my heart is heavy
‘cause you treat me like a broken down Chevy
The best days are passing us by
I got too much of this smoke in my eye

I used to make it good, wait for something more
then we’re just friends, at least I know the score
well the way I see it, it’s over now
go and kill that sacred cow

chorus

Out there, there’s a whole big world
and we’re sittin’ here with our sails unfurled;
I’m like a siren in your sea and
you like something better than me
touch me now and let me go
put it in the mail and let me know

/Chorus/

END REFRAIN REPEATS

So Long Joan Fontaine

Bend the River is a Halifax super-group I've been in for 6 years. The new album was released this summer ('14). A lot of heart and soul went into it's making. Ronok's songs are basically breathtaking. Becky Siamon
