Lyrics

Don't Pass Me By © Earl Webb


We had a house; we had a car, I had my pocket money in the jar and then
Dad got sick, he lost his pay, they came and took the house away
And for a little while I stayed with friends but, they just couldn't make ends, meet
Mum couldn't cope with losing her home
Now they're both dead, I'm on my own

Please don't think so bad of me
I'm not what I appear to be
I really am worth caring for
Don't close your eyes, don't shut the door, don't pass me by, don't pass me by

I'll be sleeping in the park again, gotta sheet of plastic for the rain
And a pair of boots with a hole in the sole, and I got my spoon and I got my bowl
The angels of the soup kitchen serving stew, if you wanna get fed then you join the queue
I don't beg for sympathy
Just a little love and a cup of tea

Please don't think so bad of me
I'm not what I appear to be
I really am worth caring for
Don't close your eyes, don't shut the door, don't pass me by, don't pass me by

With the beating of a heart at the start drew me in. your vocal and music is very easy to listen too.
I hope you do well with this.

I like the story. Love the accordion blend, gives it a vintage feel. Good vocal range. Song has a good cadence to it. Reminds me of Debbi Harry somewhat. The song evokes a nostalgic sad mood that puts you in the middle of the situation.

The vocals sell this song. Two styles of high and lower.
Nice vocal tones. The lyrics are very good I thought.
The melody is cute and very friendly sounding and likeable.
The music is nice especially towards the end .
Overall this is a very nice song that has a sound that's very in right now. Should have no problem with placements unless they are crazy.

Love the vocal texture and the blending of the voices. Very unique sounding vocal. Very good use of different instrument sounds in a real good arrangement.

Done as well as you can do it! Great storytelling fine word-smithing.Fine arrangement.

This song is sic! It is so Lo Fi and the vocals are really weird

Unique vocals and great instrumentation

Great sounding track. Fine arrangement. Love the back vocals. Very spectrum spread....left and right. You have a very engaging voice.... The instrumentation is first-rate as is the production.
The instrument selection is very nice and I love the way the various instruments weave in and out. Great dynamics. Especially, like the accordion ....tasty licks.
