Karaoké Talk It Up Sammy Rae

Smokey walls, dusty halls

No one calls

And all the window plants are dyin'

She talk it up, half empty cup

Half-hearted love

Half of the time halfway through cryin'

But she don't live here by herself

Sleepin' in the bed she's made

Readin' books about self-help

Workin' late on Saturdays

Unless she's got somethin' at stake ooh

For heaven's sake

Keep him awake

Make no mistake, he'll break down daily with no warnin'

When you're twenty years old do as you're told

Get bought and sold

It's cold this early in the mornin'

And he's livin' on Tenth Street

Gettin' home right around dawn

Every night of every week provin' everybody wrong

Any day now it won't be long so listen when I say

Don't you stop it now

Come on

Give 'em all what they came here for

Never been there the same before

Talk it up 'till your face gets sore

Don't you stop it now

Come on

Half a mile and we'll see the shore

Captain how can you be so sure

Talkin' up what I came here for

I've been holdin' my own

My rag and bone, lock up alone

I don't forget to double-check it

No no no no no no no

And I learn to rely on me and I

Straighten my tie

Lace my own boots

Zip my own jacket

Mmh because I did the best I could

I got taken down again

But I got fire in my blood

I got sugar on my skin and I got nowhere to begin so listen I say

Don't you stop it now

Come on

Give 'em all what they came here for

Never been down the same before

Talk it up 'till your face gets sore

Don't you stop it now

Come on

Half a mile and we'll see the shore

Captain how can you be so sure

Talkin' up what I came here for

See ya get what you put in so you cannot get upset if you're just dippin' your foot in because ya don't wanna get wet

And ya ain't made it big yet

Nah nah nah woah woah

Woah woah woah woah

Don't you stop it

Give 'em all what they came here for, gotta talk it up 'till your face gets sore

Don't you stop it now

Come on

Half a mile and we'll see the shore

Captain how can you be so sure

Talkin' up what I'm doin' it all for

Don't you stop it now

Come on

Give 'em all what they came here for

Never been done the same before

Talk it up 'till your face gets sore

Don't you stop it now

Come on

Half a mile and we'll see the shore

Captain how can you be so sure

Talkin' up what I came here for

Don't you stop it now

Woah oh oh ooh woah oh oh

Never been done the same

Talk it up 'till your face gets sore

Don't you stop it now

Come on

Half a mile and we'll see the shore

Captain how can you be so sure

Talkin' up what I came here for
