Steemit Open Mic - Week 72: If I Go, I'm Going

in #openmic7 years ago

Hey guys, it's really good to be back this week. I've really been on a Gregory Alan Isakov kick this winter. His songs hit home for me, especially this one--If I Go, I'm Going. I've had a lot of fun learning some of his songs and this one really means a lot to me. I hope you enjoy it too. Lyrics below.


"If I Go, I'm Going"

This house
She's holding secrets
I got my change behind the bed

In a coffee can
I throw my nickels in
Just in case I have to leave

And I will go if you ask me to
I will stay if you dare
And if I go I'm goin shameless
I'll let my hunger take me there

This house
She's quite the talker
She creeks and moans
She keeps me up

And the photographs
Know I'm a liar
They just laugh as I burn her down

And I will go if you ask me to
I will stay if you dare
And if I go I'm goin on fire
Let my anger take me there

The shingles man they're shaking
The back door's burning through
This old house she's quite the keeper
Quite the keeper of you

I will go if you ask me to
I will stay if you dare
And if I go, I'm goin crazy
I'll let my darlin take me there
If I go, I'm goin crazy
I'll let my darlin take me there


Thanks for listening.
