Dickel

Scott Whitby, 2021


I wrote a song for you

My secret desire

A song from my heart

My heart was on fire

I sang the sweet song

I sang my sweet tune

I sang it for you

But it was too soon

Put my song away

Declared it was dead

Put my song away

No more to be said


Been a long time

Since my mind was right

Found me a bar and

Stayed up all night

I played my guitar and

Played my best song

I sang like I could

It came out all wrong

You turned away

You didn't hear

You turned away

My biggest fear


I'm gonna get me some Dickel

Find me a song

After the sun goes down

Play all night long

Forget about you

And whatever you think

If you worried about me

Better get you a drink

You can sit down

You can hear my song

Don't care what you think

Don't care if it's wrong


Or you can turn and run

Not hear what I say

Pretend it's no good

Pretend I can't play

You can find your own song

If you're so clever

Sing like an angel

You and him together

I got my Dickel

Me and my guitar

I've got my song

Alone in a bar
