Dog Won't Hunt

You can’t slip away
You can’t steal away
You can’t shy away
You can’t take back your love
Can’t run & hide
Can’t hide & seek
You can’t seek another lover
You can’t take back your love
Well you shouldn’t pretend
You’re just a little girl
And that I could save you
From a very very scary world
Can’t say you don’t
We can’t say we won’t
After you say you’re in
You can’t take back your love
(It’s gonna wreck me if you do)
That dog won’t hunt
This bluebird will sing
Two things I know
And you can’t take back your love
(No you can’t)

I know it’s getting late & we’ve all made mistakes
All the same it’s a familiar voice
You meant to erase it cause honey let’s face it
My number was never your first choice
But since we’re on the phone how you gettin’ along
Must be busy cause you were never there
Me I’ve been fine not been biding my time
I been busy working on home repairs
I know your heartfelt
But it’s best after all
I guess you meant to call someone else
I suggest you call someone else
But enough about me is your cat in a tree
Or is your whole world up in fire
Is your car in a ditch or are you feeling an itch
Either way I’m not a taker or a buyer
Well I’ve spoken my peace dial two to repeat
Nostalgia is a waste like no other
Goodbye and good luck from this number you called up
& by the way give my best to your dear mother

Half the Price
03:53

Well I pick up what ya putting down
You thinking ya thinking you and I could fool around
I got news for you
I got no attraction to you
A drink or two will set you right
You’re going home alone to night
And it’s news to you
Honesty is occasionally rude
You ain’t worth half the price you gonna cost to me
I’m no mathematician but a dollar ain’t a cent you see
(I’m no mathematician but an apple ain’t an orange you see)
My baby and my money both back in Tennessee
Girl you ain’t worth half the price you gonna cost to me
Ain’t worth it baby

Homesick
02:15
|
|||
I drive a car, I fly a plane
I walk for miles, but I’m driving you insane
Write you a letter next day air
Call me anytime if you need to know I’m there
I’m homesick, not sick of my home
Let it stick, I hate when you’re alone
I hate when you’re alone
I don’t think we’ve hit a wall
Skies are clear best that I recall
Every time I go away
It’s not forever honey just a few days
I’m homesick, not sick of my home
Let it stick, I hate when you’re alone
I hate when you’re alone
I hate when you’re alone
Sometimes you cry
Sometimes I cry
I’m always with you wherever I go
You’re always with me wherever you go
To say I love you is the only way home
To say I love you is the only way home
Homesick, not sick of my home
Let it stick, I hate when you’re alone
I hate when you’re alone
I hate when you’re alone
I hate when you’re alone

Never Been Good
03:32

Early morning mama makes coffee set for two
I slept like a newborn child honey how ‘bout you
You ask me what I’m thinking
Girl you looking blue
I may not be the company
The company you need
Would you forgive me, please
I’ve never been good at being alone
Late night movie baby cold is creeping in
You’re staring at the ceiling fan I’m sleeping in the den
That black and white sure showed you
A love I’d never give
Oh you should know
It’s not you of course it’s me
Tell yourself what you need to believe
Of course it’s me it’s always me
Well so long see you sweet heart hope that you’ll forget
All those things I never did and all those things I did
I’ll probably write you letters, one’s you’ll never get

So Easy
02:57
|

It use to be so easy
Thinking about love
Never run for cover
Never fell from above
You throw me down in pieces
Find something shiny and new
What may be your intentions
The world spins around you
We have one thing in common
That your never gonna see
We both think of you too much
And forget about me
Whenever you want distance
I wait patient for you
And then your world it falls apart
You wanna start something new
I put your pieces together
And you heal by my hand
But soon you start to crumble
And I cannot understand

Cough Drop
03:07
|
|||
I’ve got my limitations
Can’t say that I won’t
Meditate on your expectations
Ones carved in stone
Bring’em with you on the elevator
And when you hear that bell
Glide down the escalator
Check out of the hotel
It’s a four block walk to
The corner and the bus stop
Where I’ll be waiting for you
On the bench with a cough drop
Cause we might lose our voices
Is it coffee or tea
Sweet Jesus so many choices
Talk’em over with me
