    Thanks to my brother Sal D’Agnillo, who left me his black Fender Stratocaster. It is the electric guitar on this album. Pretty sure he’d be
    pleased with the way Jim played it.
    Thanks to Michael Camp, Bob Cicchini, Dana Cooper, Lisa Galperin,
    Whit Hill, Joel Mabus, Karen Mal, Joyce Maynard, David Massengill,
    Laurie McClain, Buddy Mondlock, Chuck Pfarrer, Michael Smith, Mark
    Stuart, Natalia Zuckerman, for suggesting these songs. Thanks to
    Suzanne for permission to do a little “Da da da duh, doo da-doo doo…”

lyrics

Gig is Up
I don’t want to wake you
I see you weren’t expecting me to
Be home so soon
But my gig was up
So I drove all night - thinking ‘bout you, baby
And the way the moonlight – the way it shines in our bedroom

I don’t want to wake you
‘Guess you weren’t expecting me to
Pop your balloon
But the gig was up
So, I drove all night thinking ‘bout your body
And the way the moonlight – the way it shines in our bedroom

I don’t want to wake you
I guess I wasn’t expecting you two
‘Should’ve got a motel room
Now the gig is up
Gonna make a PBJ
With a glass of milk
Then I’m gonna slip away
Cause the gig is up
I don’t want to wake you
The gig is up
I don’t want to wake you
The gig is up
You see I drove all night thinking ‘bout your body
The gig is up
I don’t want to wake you
The gig is up

John D. Lamb image

John D. Lamb Detroit, Michigan

Lamb spins a tale of love and woe full of true irony and forlorn humor…Lamb has given us a slice of life in which we find common ground, but is anything but commonplace…
