This is an observational story song I wrote during our Florida tour, I love all the nouns and the uptempo feel. Sarah, as usual, tears it up and makes it real.
lyrics
I like my meat aged
And my fish fresh
Sun tan oil slathered on my chest
I admit I'm more
Than just a little obsessed
With how you look in your little black dress
I like my wine white and my liquor brown
And I need to be seen all over this town
With you baby, hanging on my arm
My governess
I'm upside down
I'm hanging on
I need you round in a circle
Round in a circle round
You turn me on
You shut me down
And I need you
Round in a circle
Round in a circle round
White sand beaches long and lean
From Punta Gorda to Tarpon Springs
Where the sun burns into your skin
Like a cattle iron
And the whiskey pours down fast and cold
By the big sugar and the lemon groves
I'm old fashioned and I'm a little slow
But I'm expensive
I'm upside down
I'm hanging on
I need you round in a circle
Round in a circle round
You turn me on
You shut me down
And I need you
Round in a circle
Round in a circle round
Sun tanned leather savoir faire
And an aging banker's bleached white hair
I'm upside down
I'm hanging on
I need you round in a circle
Round in a circle round
You turn me on
You shut me down
And I need you
Round in a circle
Round in a circle round
