Nothin' to Lose (with WildGeas)
Cave Street
The first WildGeas and Cave Street collaboration
There ain’t nothin’ I could buy
that can ever calm me down
So I leave my money at home
when I go into town
I put on my fightin’ hat
an’ I wear my dancin’ shoes
An’ if I miss my ride to town
I guess I’ll have them walkin’ blues
No I don’t bring nothin’
An’ so I got nothin’ to lose
But one a these days I swear to god
I’m gonna make the front page news
Just a little taste of poison
can make ya feel so fine
Another little taste of poison
might make ya lose your mind
An’ if I can borrow a dollar bill
well I’ll pay ya back at home
But what it is I need to do
I need to do alone
So I don’t bring nothin’
An’ I ain’t got nothin’ to lose
But one a these days I swear by god
I’m gonna make the front page news
There are some things that I’ve done
I can’t say I am proud of
But everything I ever done for you
I done it outta love
I guess you can’t believe it’s true
there’s a heart inside my chest
An’ of all the souls I’ve ever known
it’s you who’s known me best
An’ I don’t bring nothin’
An’ I got nothin’ to lose
An’ one a these days I swear to the gods
I’m gonna make the front page news
I’m gonna make the front page news
Oh yes, super cool!
I love this track, thank you so much for it's return to my fave page.
PS - Loving Wildstreet!
And suddenly I am slinky, despite being up to my arms in...it doesn't matter. Love this - great swing to it, fantastic vocals and, of course, class song-writing.
