What a single day
can do to strip away
all the ground we laid.
Will it now go to waste?

But I’ve got a burst in me
after the crime that I’ve just seen.
A white gang with a dark, dark dream.
They’re coming now to fuck with me.

I'm terrified.
Are we gonna make it out alive?
Terrified.
Will all that we love will be cast aside?
It’s alright (No!)
It’s alright (No!)
It’s alright (No!)
It’s alright (No!)

Turn off the damn TV.
It’s nothing that you need to see.
Every single chyron speaks
of the bloodbath yet to be.

I’ve got a life to lead.
I’ve got kids to feed.
But I still have a heart in me.
And it won’t slow down you see.

So what we gonna do about it?
What we gonna do about it?
What we gonna do about it?
What we gonna do about it….now?

It's All Right (No!)

Get myself in a party mood 
Then I leave the house 
and I’m dressed in blue 
Get myself stitched up for you 
Then we’re going out 
and I come unglued 

I know my frown 
keeps dragging you down 
Sometimes I’m laughing 
but I don’t make a sound 
I keep on trying 
to get with the crowd 
But I just stick out 

Get myself in a party mood 
Then I leave the house 
and I’m dressed in blue 
Get myself stitched up for you 
Then we’re going out 
and I come unglued 

I know my frown 
keeps dragging you down 
Sometimes I’m laughing 
but I don’t make a sound 
I keep on trying 
to get with the crowd 
But I just stick out 

I just stick out 

We had a party on New Year’s Eve 
The couples went around and shared their pet peeves 
The worst thing about the one you’re with 
And you answered right away 
You said, I’m too negative 

Get myself in a party mood 
Then I leave the house 
and I’m dressed in blue 
Get myself stitched up for you 
Then we’re going out 
and I come unglued 

Get myself in a party mood 
For you 
For you

Cave

This is a rough mix of a song that was cut from my 2016 album "Whatever's Chasing You." The title of the album comes from a lyric in this song.

My Lighter

A solo acoustic rendition of "Every Time I Leave My Girl" performed live on WBJB on May 2, 2019. The song appears on the 2019 album Tizzy. On the album I sing the song with my daughter, but here I sing it alone.
