Ain'T That My Clue

I saw you with him and him kissin’ you. Ain’t that my clue darlin’, ain’t that my clue? Your eye and my eye ain’t seein’ the same Ain’t that a shame darlin’, ain’t that a shame? I’m not fallin’ for your bawlin’ this time. This time you’ll find you’re way over the line. You made me yours with your lovin’ lies, Ain’t I the prize darlin’, Ain’t I the prize? The love you gave me didn’t scratch my itch. Ain’t that a b* darlin’, ain’t that a b*? I’m not fallin’ for your bawlin’ this time This time you’ll find you’re way over the line. Get out of my life, this time I’m sure. Ain’t that the cure darlin’, Ain’t that the cure? Goodbye and adieu, I’m through with you. That'd be your cue darlin’, that'd be your cue! I’m not fallin’ for your bawlin’ this time This time you’ll find you’re way over the line.

Great blues lyrics, Linda. I can just imagine you singing it in a country western bar with an old acoustic guitar and a harmonica around your neck. Love it!

Your tune grooves beautifully, Linda. Words waltzing goodbye. Many will relate to this--should be set to music.

I wish I could hear you sing this lyric. The b* deserves a kick where it hurts most.
