about

I grew up listening to Classic Rock and Blues. This song brings me back to my bluesy roots and is a sassy little thing that I love to perform. I began writing this song during my work hours and pulled in different voice notes I had recorded on my phone and pieced them together to create it.I feel like every person has been in the position this song discusses because your momma loves nothing more than saying, "I told you so!" This song was a last minute addition to my EP and I hope you all love it as much as I do!

lyrics

My momma told me, stay away from him/He’s gonna break you, don’t let him in/Don’t get wrapped up, in his web of lies/Under his finger, will be your demise/He is a bad boy, for a good girl like you/You need to be smart, and think this through/Cuz he may sparkle, like the starts in the sky/Baby trust me, he isn’t your guy/And now I got him, I got him with his fist in his mouth/I still want him, I need to know what this is about, about, about/He is my cocaine, I’m his anti-drug/I need a fix of, his sweet love/Now I’m addicted, I need him every day/Momma you ain’t gon' drive him away/And now I got him, I got him with his fist in his mouth/I still want him, I need to know what this is about, about, about/I’m so conflicted, because I need him like thunder needs rain/I’m at a crossroad, do I take pleasure over pain/I’m sorry momma he’s drawn me in like a moth to a flame/And now I got him, I got him with his fist in his mouth/I still want him, I need to know what this is about, about/And now I got him, I got him with his fist in his mouth/I still want him, I need to know what this is about, about, about/My momma told me/Momma knows best
