Description
These songs of boozers, losers, lovers, leavers and dreamers bear the stamp of Janis Joplin’s ballsy wallop, the Stones’ randy, rowdy, high-voltage hammering, Merle Haggard’s barroom bruises and other admirable imprints that point to the band members’ collective years learning at the feet of the masters.
Lyrics
Like I Needed You Then Lyrics: Sarah Gleason Music: Paul Pearce (V1) Hot vinyl seat stickin’ to my back Sun Shinin’ down how on my lap And I’m drivin’ To meet you today (V2) In a diner out off 33 I’m here to early, only quarter to three So nervous, sittin chewin straws (Pre-Chorus) Playin with sugar cubes and little spoons Killing time here waitin for you Rubbin’ my leg where my jeans are torn The floor looks clean even though its worn (CHORUS) You’re the kinda man, that’s hard to forget You still hold a place, you haven’t left me yet Needin’ you now like I needed you then I’m needin’ you now like I needed you then (V3) When you called me up it bout blew my mind I nearly dropped the phone I almost started cryin’ And with a shaky voice I said I missed you, too. (V4) And I’m starin’ holes though that front door Have I changed too much, will you care anymore Will you love me Like you did back then (Pre-Chorus) Its been two years since you’ve been gone I can’t believe we let it go this long After today we’ll never be the same Lets start all over it’s a brand new game
