This was recorded and mixed on the same night I recorded Daylight Savings. Lyrically, it is a kind of prayer- working as a busboy and not making money, but having faith that everything’s gonna be alright. An anthem of hope for the lonely and underpaid and dissed.
Lyrics
Embarcadero BluesWaitin' Tables, Waitin for the tables to turn
Waitin' Tables, Waitin in a city with no left hand turns
Where are you now?
$30, makin $30 a day
$30 but the meter maid came and took it all away
Where is the love?
Sleep's the only place where I can see your face these days
You take me home
You give me hope
Ride the clock and wait in vain
same ol difference but what's it make?
Just minimum wage
Reading fables, reading into windows of hope- and pray
prayin that the wind'll come and blow you my way
Where are ya now?
Seems the only place that I can find you's
in this song'
You take me home
Beautiful girl
You give me hope
This is one of my faves from you
