Lyrics
(simple song. written to feature the pickers)
HEART OF THE MATTER
W-Larry M Clark BMI P-Ellemsee Music BMI larrymyrtus@yahoo.com
CHORUS
When you get down to the heart of the matter
It's my heart that doesn't matter
It's my heart that's gonna shatter
When you get down to the heart of the matter
VERSE 1
You treat me like a pair of old stockin's (SOLO repeat line)
I sit home while you're out rockin' (SOLO repeat line)
I wait and cry and cry and wait (SOLO repeat line)
I need you but you're always late (SOLO repeat line)
REPEAT CHORUS
SOLO
REPEAT CHORUS
VERSE 2
I can't win but I'll keep on tryin' (SOLO repeat line)
I say I'll leave but I'm just lyin' (SOLO repeat line)
A little of you is better than none (SOLO repeat line)
Though I know I'm not the only one (SOLO repeat line)
REPEAT CHORUS
