Story Behind The Song
When someone says to you "it's always darkest before it's completely black," do you laugh or cry?
Song Description
Acoustic bopping blues asks "have you sold everything that you had?" and affirms hope and energy. Simple chords and rollicking rhythm make it open to many interpretations - could be Stevie Ray Vaughn guitar on the walking basslines in the chorus, could be Harry Connick Jr.s swinging horns.

Lyrics
wait - have you tried everything that you could
when you?re down but you?re still feeling good
little world step aside have you tried everything that you could?
little world step aside
have you lost everything that you had
when you?re up but you?re feeling so bad
little child come along have you lost everything that you had?
little child come along little child
b section
my tongue is tied my mouth?s all dry
i hope it didn?t scare you
i?m here today but won?t stay long
i only came to dare you
little child come along little child
come along - have you sold everything that you own
when you?ve sold everything that you own won?t you try
won?t you try to believe that you?re not all chewed up
cause you?re not all chewed up
and you?re not all chewed up
no you?re not all chewed up
little child come along little child
little child come along little child
b section
cause you?re not all chewed up
and you?re not all chewed up
no you?re not all chewed up
