If She Was To Say
Words and Music Darling

I woke up late today
Had my puppy and sweet mary jane by my side
Sure have been thinking about that girl
But with the sunshine feeling like its going to be all right
But if she was to say you know I really miss your way
I would be there right away
Maybe if we run
We could make it to the bar just in time
Throw back a couple of beers
And you could help me keep this girl off my mind
But if she was to say you know I really miss your way
I would be there right away
I went and picked my self off the shore cause I ain’t thirsty no more
I’m just trying to find a way to get my feet inside the door
Of these dreams that I chase but do not mistake girl
I’m way to strong to hold down I will never break
Torn between the loss of a friend but trying to give time for my heart to mend
I guess I just want to taste her again
But I guess that’s how it goes
 

 

Dirt Cheap and Priceless
Words and music by Paul Hays

It’s something that’s so, so hard to define
It cannot be grown, it cannot be mined
It’s something inside of you and it can get lost
I wouldn’t sell it at any cost
Dirt cheap and priceless are one and the same
It’s all about numbers and it’s such a shame
When it happens you’ll know, cause nothing’s the same
And then you’ll get an itchy feeling in back of your brain
And the only way to scratch at it is to move around
I sometimes gotta break me something, I need a project around
Dirt cheap and priceless are one and the same
Money Sure knows how to ruin a game
Dirt cheap and priceless are one and the same
It’s all about numbers and it’s such a shame
Oh it’s such a shame…

I’m Still Strong
Words and music by Neil Darling

Don’t think its you the reason I ain’t been getting no sleep
And don’t think its you I ain’t ate in weeks
And don’t think its you no don’t go flatter yourself that way
I’m very strong
But maybe its got a little something to do with why I’m wearing one shoe stumbling outside my neighbors door
I got myself a 5th of gin and yeah my night is just beginning its already a quarter past four
I don’t know why I’m thinking about your face I’m not sure
Remember I’m strong
Don’t think its you there must be something in my eye
You must been mistaken see tough guys don’t cry
Don’t think its you no don’t go flatter yourself that way
I’m very strong
Maybe its got a little something to do with why I’m cuddled up with you my porcelain queen from the night before
By the corner where I fell it was with a rebel yell I cry no no more
Don’t know why I’m thinking about your face I’m not sure
But I’m still strong
Don’t think it s you the reason I fell down hit my head
Concussions aren’t so bad just another day in bed
Don’t think its you no don’t go flatter yourself that way
I’m very strong
But maybe its got a little something to do with why I’m wearing one shoe stumbling outside my neighbors door
I got myself a 5th of gin and yeah my night is just beginning its already a quarter past four
I don’t know why I’m thinking about your face or why mine is sore
Remember I’m strong
 

 

Breathing in E flat
Words and music by Hays

I don’t wanna push, if you don’t want to go
And I don’t want to waste my time, worried about fast or slow
We could win it all, but first we’ve gotta play
It’ll all work out one day
It’ll all work out some way
I’m in love with you girl, you’re all I need
Make sweet love to me girl, don’t ya sow my seed
Cause a baby needs….
A baby needs so much…
He needs so much…

Ain’t got time (S.I.)
Words and music by Darling

Trying to figure out what I got to do to get next to you
Could you fall in love with the word I say
I hope its not about the car that I don’t drive
If its about the money I guess that you should walk away
Cause I ain’t got time yeah ain’t got no money to spend on you
But like your favorite old jeans I’ll be your new favorite thing girl were gonna fit just right
I ain’t got style yeah and all im working with is my smile
But like an old pair of shoes that you just slide right into girl I’m gonna fit just right
Trying to figure out what I got to do to get you close to me
Do you fall in love with what you feel or what you see
Its not about what I own but who I be
I was born with this big head but I don’t think like no V.I.P.
Cause I ain’t got time yeah ain’t got no money to spend on you
But like your favorite old jeans I’ll be your new favorite thing girl were gonna fit just right
I ain’t got style yeah and all I’m working with is my smile
But like an old pair of shoes that you just slide right into girl I’m gonna fit just right
Trying to figure out what I got to do to get you close to me
What if I said please
 

 

Snake Woman
Words and music by Hays

That Snake woman got them real dark eyes
Her forked tongue will tell you sweet little lies
She ain’t from round these parts and what’s for sure
That bite of hers will have you coming back for more
Snake Woman, she’s slitherin by you
Snake Woman, she’s slitherin by you
That serpent lady only thinks of herself
She’ll use your love up and then put it on that shelf
She ain’t even gonna think bout you
When you’re gone she sure won’t be blue
Snake Woman, she’s slitherin by you
Snake Woman, slitherin by you
That snake woman got them real dark eyes
Her forked tongue will tell you sweet little lies
One taste of venom and you’ll know for sure
Surrender to her cause there just ain’t no cure
Snake Woman, slitherin by you
Snake Woman, slitherin by you

My way Home
Words and music by Darling

I said go my way home I left the door unlocked for you
Its been so long since I laid down here with you
A feeling so simple but its so hard to deny
You can not contain it I saw the look in your eye
I’m thinking wont you come on in
Wont you sneak on in
I left the door wide open
Won't you come on in
Stay hear a while I wanna lay down here with you
I said stay here a while I wanna wake up next to you
A feeling so simple but its so hard to deny
You can not contain it I saw the look in your eye
I’m thinking wont you come on in
Wont you sneak on in
I left the door wide open
Won't you come on in
 

 

Far away from Here
Music and words by Darling

Blood shot eyes still can’t define the taste that your pallet just found
And all my life we called it getting high but it bring em down
You know I scratched up some change found a cure for my brain and swallowed it down
I used to rule this world now I spend my time trying to find my crown
I’m thinking surely something’s gonna change
You know it 3am once again but my brain just wont shut it down
The ceiling fan spins and my head it begins to follow it around
Go on and kiss that rain right off the roof and I still will not shut it down
Done dug a cocaine grave and now I’m a slave and I cant shut it down
Surely something’s gonna change
Take me far away from here I don’t know how much more I can go through
I’ve fallen face down in the middle of things and I ain’t got you

A little U M E
Music and words by Darling

I noticed you from across the room
Legs say you’re a dancer well I got a tune
You turned me down but I still come around
Did I mention I’m a real good dancer
Lets get down down down yeah
There were so many things up on my mind but now its just you
So many things stacked up on my plate now I feel full
Girl I’m not trying to marry you I just wanna see
Just how good this could feel
A little U M E
So I walked home Thanks to Lucy I’m not alone
Fixed up my brain feeling high so I cant complain
But I’ll still let you know the next time we have a show
Get your friends and come out dancing
We’ll get down down down
There were so many things up on my mind but now its just you
So many things stacked up on my plate now I feel full
Girl I’m not trying to marry you I just wanna see
Just how good this could feel
A little U M E
 

 

Sweet Mary
Music and words by Darling

I’m gonna find myself a home I’m gonna set myself right down
And if I cant find your loving there I wont know where to begin
If she finds me this will surely be through
If she knows what I think she knows I might just cut her loose
There’s so many times I thought of you
There’s so many times I’ve held the line
But you wont let me loose
Cause she walks like an angel she ain’t got no wings
But she holds it high over my head
I could beat this girl but I’m sick of being dunk
I’m gonna get my self high instead
With sweet mary come and take me away
Sweet mary there’s nothing left to say
I’m gonna find myself a place I’m gonna let my self right in
And if I cant find your loving there I wont know where to begin
If she finds me this will surely be through
If she knows what I think she knows I might just cut her loose
There’s so many times I thought of you
There’s so many times I’ve held the line
But you wont let me loose
Cause she walks like an angel she ain’t got no wings
But she holds it high over my head
I could beat this girl but im sick of being dunk
I’m gonna get myself high instead

Hammer Thumb
Words and music by Darling

Here’s a tale listen well about a love affair that changed me
Smooth and slow is what we chose but then I had to let her go
She waits to see she knows everything inside me
She hates to breathe unless she can be beside me
I cant stand to see you cry but with out my dreams I’ll die
I never meant to hurt you
Take this load off my back maybe then ill stay on track
I cant live beside you
She waits to see she knows everything inside me
She hates to breath unless she can be beside me
Here’s a tale listen well about a love affair that changed me
