Sing Me A Song

Sing me a song

Make it sad and slow

 

Tell me about heartache and pain

The loves you have lost

The loves you have gained

 

Sing me a song

Make it up beat and fast

 

Tell me about being in the back of the club

Things you don’t tell you mother

about

Things you’ll warn your children

About

 

Sing me a song

Make it an acapella version

 

Tell me about the lord

Hitting high notes that take my soul with them

Rumbling low notes that jerk at my tears on their trip

 

Sing me a song

Play a guitar with it

 

Tell me how the government is no longer representing the people

Tell me how if it was not for bad luck you would have none

 

Sing me this song

This one right here

 

The one I wrote

To and for

You.
