lyrics

Baby, you’ve got it all
I’ve lost count of those lucky stars
Tonight I’m taking you out
To your favorite neon bar
I know that I was cruel
I can’t seem to stay above this blue

But I didn’t mean to take it out on you

Seems like one minute my ace is high
And the next my ace is low
These days I wake up crying
Buddy, how can I roll when the wheels won’t go?
I’m trying, I promise I’m trying
To pony up, to get this right

Oh, I didn’t mean to take it out on you
No, I didn’t mean to take it out on you

Hollowness works its way in
Like a porcupine quill through a puppydog shin
But tonight I’m taking you out
Tonight I’m saying thank you, my friend

‘Cause I didn’t mean to take it out on you
No, I didn’t mean to take it out on you

Long Mama Milwaukee, Wisconsin

Long Mama’s music blisters with the heart and grit of someone who has lost hard, loved harder, and licked her burns until they stung then silvered. In a drafty attic just west of the Milwaukee River she grew up on, you’ll find songwriter Kat Wodtke (Wood-key) raking through notebooks in search of a salve: words, stories, and sounds to temper the dumpster fires we never mean to light. ... more
