Every Night

from Fun Guy by Scott Cooper

/

about

Closing it is a remix of “Every Night,” which originally showed up on my previous CD “Four Four.” Obviously influenced by Allen Toussaint and Little Feat, the drum part is very specific and my slide guitar part takes the place of a lead guitar, while Dale’s piano again shines.

lyrics

Every night and every other night
The cat creeps in
With a wink
Orders up a drink
This time it’s gin
Every time that the sun goes down
And his wife's alone
He's face down on the street below him
kiss the cobblestone
Every night and every other night
The same old song

Betty lou
What you gonna do
While he’s away
Will you whine
Will you drink your wine
Time for the mouse to play
Every night when he leaves the house
And heads downtown
Just to hear his rhythm and blues
no sweeter sound
Betty Lou
What you gonna do
I think I know

What if his boss
Tired of the sauce
Lets him go
And his wife
Tired of her life
suburban home
living life hanging by a thread
That’s his MO
On the edge of losing it all
somehow he don’t
So every night night
And every night
And on it goes
