With a little luck we can sort this out,
Lost in the country boy basement.
Flip the switch but have a doubt,
You just can’t seem to face it.
Throw another line, try to real them in,
Set your destination.
Somewhere along the line small talk’s a sin,
Catch and release fascination.
Poise melts like ice,
The ivory looks real nice.
Whisper a prayer but no one’s there,
Just you and the two dice.
Chorus:
Shooting with yourself
You can try again it doesn’t have to end when you’re
Shooting with yourself
Always coming out on top, so you never have to stop no
Always on top.
Double up the pot, get back what you can,
Tavern tales won’t save you.
A cold table has you feeling less-than,
Jack and coke are both through.
Cashing out the crew under china town lights,
Hail the last cab on canal street.
Driven days turn to hard-wired nights,
At least in queens three’s company.
Chorus:
Shooting with yourself
You can try again it doesn’t have to end when you’re
Shooting with yourself
Always coming out on top, so you never have to stop no
Always on top.

this record is so evocative of a specific time of day, in a specific room, in a specific time of my childhood in 1991, that I get kind of lost in memory when I listen. this is music overflowing with warmth and kindness, a soft world for anyone who needs it Ashley Rivera
