Sure Fire Way Of Taking

I've got that 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.

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

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

(chorus)

about

Dan Frechette California

Bandcamp generously sends 85% of your support directly toward my humble living expenses.

This is the only place you will find all of my albums. I have most of them on YouTube Music (Topic Channel) and Spotify now as well. However, music is not free to produce and neither is rent and groceries.

For best audio results, download music at minimum 320 MP3. WAV is best. Thanks 🙏
