lyrics

his Life Amanda left Me
c. '20 Vlayman

Me and Amanda, we had us a band
We called ourselves the Heartbreak Twins
we played every gig we could fit in
Seemed to be all we did

CH 1
Along with alla the boozin' and druggin'
we never seemed to have no time
The melodies was as important as making things rhyme
And we didn't really work on the lovin'
we didn't reallly work on the lovin'

Was a man in some little town outside Chicago
Said he thought the songs was good enough
He said I looked a star but Amanda looked rough
I didn't know he told her so

So I signed some papers there at the bar
Figured I could bring Amanda along
I knew I would, cause we wrote the songs
It was just me who looked a star

CH2
Along with alla the boozin' and druggin'
we never seemed to have no time
The melodies was as important as making things rhyme
And we didn't really work on the lovin'
we didn't reallly work on the lovin'
what we spent our time workin' on turned out to be nothin'
we didn't reallly work on the lovin'

Now I'm giggin' pretty regular, got my own bus
Gotta drummer and bass and gutars
Got a fiddle player to the stars
But I wish I had Amanda to back me up

Now I'm giggin' pretty regular, got my own bus
Gotta drummer and bass and gutars
Got a fiddle player to the stars
But I wish I had Amanda to back me up

CH3
Along with alla the boozin' and druggin'
we never seemed to have no time
The melodies was as important as making things rhyme
And we didn't really work on the lovin'
we didn't reallly work on the lovin'
what we spent our time workin' on turned out to be nothin'
And now I got the money and the copyrights
And Amanda, she left me this life

about

Vlayman Chicago, Illinois

Fat, bald and old - could I be anymo' rock-n-roll?
I play guitar, bass, some keys and percussion, and I try to vocalize. I write and record, and I do so obsessively. Also, I like martoonies, a lot, and I raise my kids, whom I also like, a lot.
Look for me at the TapeOp and TalkBass forums, where I'm vvv, or in various bars in the Loop.
