Steve McCormick - steel guitar and organ

They need your constant attention
The whole thing is cracking apart
Did I forget to mention
It was ending right from the start

I don't know about you
I'll take a hit of that partner
Been working all week long
I didn't realize we were writing music
I gotta hear the song

There's a late afternoon siesta
Somewhere in a back room
Is this some kinda low budget Mexican fiesta
Or a mid-summer night's gloom

I don't know about you
I'll take a hit of that partner
Been working all week long
I didn't realize we were writing music
I gotta hear the song

How come harmonicas sound so good
Why do these words fall so hard
Why when you know you think you should
Does it all fall apart

I don't know about you
I'll take a hit of that partner
Been working all week long
I didn't realize we were writing music
I gotta hear the song
