DBT #224 Monday Morning Song - Everything I Wanted by Beth Bombara
Good Morning since the last two MMS have been break up songs, here is a little ditty that can put a positive shot in the arm for the rest of the week. Last week I decided if I am to own all of Beth Bombara's music why not have a vinyl too? It'll look so good in the collection. So by pre-ordering it I got two songs of the album. Plus Beth was on my mind seeing her booked at Moccasin Creek Festival last weekend. We loved it last year, maybe next we'll travel the seven hours again.
This shakes it up and is definitely a good throwback to the sound I grew up too. So enjoy the sunshine, now after this song please realize you likely have most everything you want to except for some Beth Bombara music. Here's how Beth describes the song, plus the lyrics.
I get to chat with a lot of different types of people on a regular basis. A commonality that’s come up in these conversations is many of us have been taught that acquiring that next thing (money, job, car, house, vacation, etc) will finally fulfill & satisfy us. Every time I get the next thing, I’m fulfilled for a little while, until I realize that there’s something else to acquire. Then my satisfaction vanishes, and the cycle repeats.
lyrics
Didn’t mean to keep you so late when we got talking in the kitchen
Quarter to one, comparing notes on how we make a living
You said money is fine, but I can’t buy time to think it over
Cause it don’t add up, always putting off the best until you’re older
Ooooh, I’ve got everything I wanted
Ooooh, cause I got what I need
Rolling up my sleeves, cause I look around and everything is broken
And I’m not here just to sit around and watch a slow erosion
you said “Money is time” but that dollar sign ain’t getting any younger
And I don’t need much, cause a little of our love can start a fire
Ooooh, I’ve got everything I wanted
Ooooh, cause I got what I need
Quarter to one, comparing notes on how we make a living
You said money is fine, but I can’t buy time to think it over
Cause it don’t add up, always putting off the best until you’re older
Ooooh, I’ve got everything I wanted
Ooooh, cause I got what I need
Rolling up my sleeves, cause I look around and everything is broken
And I’m not here just to sit around and watch a slow erosion
you said “Money is time” but that dollar sign ain’t getting any younger
And I don’t need much, cause a little of our love can start a fire
Ooooh, I’ve got everything I wanted
Ooooh, cause I got what I need
