about

With a jumpin’ “Tequila” guitar riff, Billy Carl’s vocal and Ruby’s harmonica take the lead. Blues pop meets The Beatles.

lyrics

You’re My Obsession
©Billy Carl Mancini (aka Bill Mason), Bonk Zone Music ASCAP

When I was young and inexperienced
I tried to think of any way to get close to you
I used to sneak around the back and look over the fence
And I’d do anything just to talk to you
I guess I’ll have to admit to myself
You’re my obsession

Well I eat you and I breath you everyday
Now that I have you I just want to push you away
But I need you like a needle needs a good vein
Now that I have you, you won’t ever go away
You’re my obsession

I guess I should have listened to the twilight man
He said, “Be careful what you wish for cause it might come true”
Now there’s only one thing that I understand
And that’s the pain that I’ll feel if I ever lose you
I guess I’ll have to admit to myself
You’re my obsession
