I wrote the seed words for this prototype country blues tune in 1958, at the age of 16. It was a scripted kind of episodic fictional daydream ( it's time to be gone song ), my teenage attempt to mimic my major blues influences of the late 40s and 50s. This year Mark Lyle, Bryan Carter and I got it cranked back up word wise and flew it forward to now with updated lyrics that kept the spirit of the original but reflected an matured set of skills and the help and input of each other in the process of charting and producing the music. We like to think we retained the feel of and old Willie Dixon song, one of my earliest influences and heroes. This is another time travel oriented Three Amigos production from Southside Tracks.

Lyrics: 
1958 / 2023: I’m Outta Here / I Ain’t Lying 
1.	I don’t need no bossy lady, Treat me like I’m second rate
I can’t take all this drama mama, You set up in your mind to set me straight
I can’t stay here one more hour, No need to say you’re sorry, time is up and it’s too late.
Chorus:	I’m outta here, and I ain’t lying
		Like a flash of heat lightning ‘cross the sky
I ain’t listening to no more fussing and crying
I done tried everything there is to try
If I told you once, I did a thousand times
That one day I’d be leaving like I’m flying
Like a flash of heat lightning, ‘cross a dark night sky
 		Woman, I’m outta here, and I ain’t lying!
2.	You just too opinionated, Always got to say what’s right for me
Woman, You just too opinionated. You’ve done decided who I need to be
I can’t stay here one more minute, Made up my mind, I got to get free!
Chorus:	(same as above)
3.	Don’t want to be here with nobody, Look to have herself a man to raise 
Don’t wanna be with some somebody, Got a sure fire plan to change my ways
I can’t stay here one more second, My clock say quitting time, and no more days.          
Chorus:	(same as above)
