Locked Out of the Ritz

This song is not in a battle


This is a new recording from my folk band, Tara Hall. Recorded at McGill University at around 2 am (that's when we could get the studio time). Features double bass, guitar, cello, and vocals. Hopefully more to come!

What you gonna do?
'Cause you've lost your right mind now.
Some say its lucky
or Funny, but you can't see how

 
But how you gonna act
When they take back that silver key
That opens up that gate And leads you straight to the moon

Ooh ooh,
How's it gonna be?      
The livin' ain't easy
But dyin' ain't free.
Ooh ooh,
What you gonna do?
The night man's coming for you.
The night man's coming for you.

They said you were in trouble
But you had no idea
That when you strutted out
The Ritz would be a memory too

The whiskey came and the whiskey went
You know that drinkin is the second sin
But, whatcha gonna do  To fix this state you're in?

And it's a long way down when you can't even crawl
Feelin' like a giant but you're four feet small.
Baby won't you do me like you done before
Gimme little kick get me out that door...

Nice, sentimental ditty. The Cello is quite unusual in folk but fits pretty good here . I like it.
