(Keep Her) All To Myself
©Jerry Axson

I am not your satisfaction guaranteed, I am not your candy wrapped,
I am not your prize waiting inside a box of Cracker Jack...
Your magnificent obsession is about to meet a bitter end,
the word is out - there is no doubt - on that you can depend...

Baby talks nasty -
on the telephone,
paints her lips a bright red,
when she thinks we’re alone,
pulls in to the receiver,
lets it all pour out,
I know what you’re thinking -
but that’s not what we’re about...

Reach out for the sun,
to hold in your hands,
let my stallion run across,
your warm desert sand -

All right - I think I’m gonna’ keep her,
All right - I think I’m gonna’ keep her,
All right - I think I’m gonna’ keep her,
all to myself...2x
All right...8x

I haven't slept since twenty -
that’s a long, long time,
I lay awake and ponder,
what is and is not mine,
it’s not about possessing -
or the possession of things,
baby’s a free agent -
and I like what she brings...

Writing songs and composing music satisfy my soul and because of this I know exactly what I am designed to do, it’s just that simple. - Jerry Axson ... more
