lyrics

Donnez Moi
© 2015, Scott Hrabko (ASCAP)

"Quatre!"

Donnez moi, donnez moi,
Donnez moi tout le monde
Donnez moi, donnez moi

Well, I ain't got no distractions
You could say I'm being good
But sometimes I feel like John the Baptist
Screaming in the woods
If some Salome comes looking
Honey, you know I'll keep my head
But I mostly deal with boredom
Way over on the cool side of the bed

{Repetez Chorus}

I had a good girl from the badlands
For to keep me in my lane
From the wild, unanswered prairies
To the dull and aching plains
'Round Cat Scratch, Saskatchewan
I guess I let her slip away
Well, she run off with some madman
John the Baptist was his name

{Repetez Chorus}

I awaken, aching in her absence
Sentimentally ill
Roll out of bed in a great deal of dread
Baby, you know the drill
Was it the muse or the turpentine fumes
Give me such a thrill?
I tried to paint her from memory
But she just won't sit still

{Repetez Chorus}

"Allez!"

about

Scott Hrabko Kansas City, Missouri

Kansas City's Scott Hrabko is an independent singer/songwriter who has followed his own mercurial muse since the town's late- 80s indie rock scene.

“Hrabko’s rootsy songs are filled with trap doors, hidden nooks, and secret passageways. They’re like those dreams within comfortably familiar houses that suddenly have brand new rooms.”
Mike Warren - No Depression
