Story Behind the Song
Just flowed.
Originally I was gonna do it heavier..I don't mean phatt..but actually sounding MUCH heavier. Andrew didn't think it sounded natural for me. In retrospect, I guess that was a compliment..ESPECIALLY from Andrew!
Lyrics
My real thing is real real gone.
V1
My poor heart is achin all the time.
My poor heart is,
achin all the time.
I can't even eat,
my poor hearts,
gone and skipped a beat.
My poor heart is achin, all the time.
V2
I can't even sleep at night.
I can't even sleep,
at night.
I'm just in so deep,
I just pray the Lord..my soul to keep.
You know,
I can't sleep,
at night.
Bridge:
Hey bartender, pour me a drink.
Just keep em comin so I can't think.
If I have to drown at all,
it might as well be in alcohol,
my baby's, real, real, real, real gone.
My baby's real, real, real, real gone.
V3
I been lovin the real thing all my life.
I been lovin the real thing all my life.
I ain't got no man no more,
I just,
watched my real thing,
go out the door,
you know, I been lovin the real thing all my life.
You know, I been lovin the real thing all my life.
My thing is real, real gone.
