    Story Behind the Song
    This song is simply a fictional short story about a man who lost his lover to a rich man whom she married for his money but she calls on the boyfriend for love now and then. It was recorded with a drummer friend on a 16 track analog tape machine with myself overdubbing all of the other instruments and voices.

    Lyrics
    In a big fancy house high upon a hill
    She's drinking champagne but I know that she misses me still
    Cause she calls me every time she has a little time to kill
    I tell myself I wont but I just can't say no
    Cause she broke my heart all those years ago
    Now I hear her voice and I lose all self control

    She has everything including me now and then
    Caviar and cars and lots of money to spend
    I've got union scale and all of our old friends
    She's got everything including me now and then

    I promised her the moon but she wanted a mansion instead
    I gave her a rose, he gave her a brand new Corvette
    Now I wait for her call and take what I can get
    I'm a Ford truck and she's a Mercedes Benz
    I've got nothing to lose she's got everything to defend
    Now she's got everything including me now and then
