Don't Mean A Thing

Black Keys - Junior Kimbrough's "Meet Me In The City"

Jesse Roper's song Cupid record at Bear Creek with Ryan Hadlock (Vance Joy, The Lumineers, G. Love, Brandi Carlile and more)

Lyrics
Cupid shot an arrow and it landed quite deep in the palm of my calloused hand
I tried to pull it out but it wouldn't seem to budge so I left it to stand
over the next few weeks a change came about me that I really didn't understand
but it doesn't take long for a feeling that strong to completely overtake a man

Oooohhh and I felt it, The feeling wouldn't go away
so I told the young cupid that she must take it back
I know its going to cause me pain
But the arrow found its way from my hand into my heart
and it buried down as deep as it could
And it determined the way that I lived each day and i do remember feeling good

Run away from your home you might make it
Run away from your heart and you will always look behind
I tried to love you but I felt like you wouldn't take it
and now the arrows gone through my heart
and I'm crying

Once upon a time there was a pearly white castle in the hills overlooking the sea
and all the people in the town and the villages around they all remarked it as the place of their dreams
Oh but what they didn't know is that once inside, the castle it was in disrepair 
the king in a rage went and flew his pearly cage and he left his lovely queen there  

Run away from your home you might make it
Run away from your heart and you will always look behind
I tried to love you but I felt like you wouldn't take it
and now the arrows gone through my heart

Run away from your home you might make it
Run away from your heart and you will always look behind
I tried to love you but I felt like you wouldn't take it
and now the arrows gone through my heart
and now the arrows gone through my poor poor heart
and now the arrows gone through my heart
and Im cryin

Westbound Bart was written after a long streak of writer’s block. After graduating UCSC and deciding not to teach math, I floated around the bay area for about a year or so. One night I was staying on a friend’s couch in Berkeley, complaining to him about my writer’s block and he knew that I liked to write about real life incidents and human nature. He suggested I check out the Tuesday night Karaoke at Amnesia Bar in SF. He told me about all the interesting characters that haunt that place and how I was sure to find a song there. I headed out solo, hopped on the BART, and the song picks up from there. I got the song and the writer’s block was gone. ~ Craigie
