lyrics

Well excuse me, there stranger
Are you sittin' all alone
I'd be willin' to wager
You won't be lonely long

like a storm clouds silver linin'
Or the neon's warm glow
Behind the darkness and your pining
Is the oldest story ever told

Did he tell you he loved you?
Did he say he'd never leave?
And that's all you had to hold on to
Love's lies are easy to believe

She said don't bother
I'm aint worth it
I aint lookin' for company

She couldn't be farther
From worthless
But I guess she wont be believin' me

Did he tell you he loved you?
Did he say he'd never leave?
And that's all you had to hold on to
Love's lies are easy to believe

Well excuse me stranger
I should be leavin'
I can tell when its my time

She said hey neighbour
Next time I'm greavin'
Maybe I could listen to you lie

And I'd tell you I love you
And that I'll never leave
I'll be there to hold onto
My heart is all that's up my sleeve

Yes I'd tell you I love you
And that I'll never leave
I'll be there to hold onto
My heart is all that's up my sleeve

"Hardcore, traditional, songs of leavin', drinkin', and losin', but mainly drinkin', all enhanced by a tight rhythm section and plenty of of steel guitar. " - Country Music People Magazine 5 Star Review of "III"

" Wittily crafted, downtempo western melodies, a cactus in the ass of modern, power-ballad country crooners that forgot the music of their grandfathers." -EXCLAIM! Magazine
