The second song sung by drummer Toby Smith in effort to maintain versatility for you the fan. The Southern Raiders Band does try to make each of our tunes versatile so you don’t buy a ten song album that sounds like a song in a loop, but instead, we try to make each song different creating a theme for your listening entertainment. Take a listen and if you like it buy it we would certainly appreciate that and if you are interested in learning more about the Southern Raiders Band let us know we more than welcome you, don’t shy away, say HI. Besides, we can use all the fans we can win over. To learn more about us you can also check us out on our Facebook page, you can go to Facebook.com/southernraiders. Thank you for spending a moment with us we know you are busy, and have a great day…
VERSE
SOMETIMES I WAKE UP IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT
COLD SWEATS POPPING OUT LORD SOMETHING AIN'T RIGHT
I CALL YOUR NAME TO A COLD FLAT SURFACE OF THE WALL
THERE’S NO REPLY HERE NO THERE’S NO SOUND HERE AT ALL
NOTHING BUT MY HEART BEAT IT’S POUNDING ON, AND ON, AND ON, AND ON, AND WAITING FOR YOUR CALL IT AIN’T COMING HERE AT ALL
CHORUS
GOTTA GET MYSELF TOGETHER LORD, LORD, LORD
GOTTA WORK THIS WHOLE THING OUT
PICK UP THE PIECES THAT YOU LEFT OF ME WHAT YOU LEFT OF ME
GOTTA CARRY ON WITHOUT YOU . . . WITHOUT YOU SOMEHOW
VERSE
SO NOW YOU TELL ME THAT WE’RE GOOD FRIENDS
THAT’S ALL WE ARE LORD THAT’S ALL WE’VE EVER BEEN
I’D LIKE TO SEE YOU OR GIVE YOU A RING
YOU GOT A MIND OF YOUR OWN AND I CAN’T CHANGE A THING
CHORUS
GOTTA GET MYSELF TOGETHER LORD, LORD, LORD
GOTTA WORK THIS WHOLE THING OUT
PICK UP THE PIECES THAT YOU LEFT OF ME WHAT YOU LEFT OF ME
GOTTA CARRY ON WITHOUT YOU . . . WITHOUT YOU SOMEHOW
LEAD
BRIDGE
THESE ARE THE SWEETEST EYES I EVER DID SEE
LORD YOUR SMILE DOES SOMETHING TO ME
I WANT TO HOLD YOU IN MY ARMS RIGHT NOW
AND TASTE YOUR KISS AND BREATH RIGHT FROM YOUR MOUTH
CHORUS X2
GOTTA GET MYSELF TOGETHER LORD, LORD, LORD
GOTTA WORK THIS WHOLE THING OUT
PICK UP THE PIECES THAT YOU LEFT OF ME WHAT YOU LEFT OF ME
GOTTA CARRY ON WITHOUT YOU . . . WITHOUT YOU SOMEHOW
GOTTA GET MYSELF TOGETHER LORD, LORD, LORD
GOTTA WORK THIS WHOLE THING OUT
PICK UP THE PIECES THAT YOU LEFT OF ME WHAT YOU LEFT OF ME
GOTTA CARRY ON WITHOUT YOU . . .. WITHOUT YOU SOME…HOW
