Artist/Band: Bobby Bare
Lyrics for Song: Till I Get on My Feet
Lyrics for Album: Me and McDill [RCA Victor] [1977]



(Bob McDill)



She was quite a looker she kept herself up well

She was crowdin' forty but in the dark you couldn't tell

I sat down at her table and had myself a pour

Then we slow danced by the jukebox to a motel room next door.



I whispered soft and sweet what's the use in waitin'

Love is wild and free and night is quickly fadin'

She said it may be wild but honey it ain't free

Would you lay twenty on me till I get on my feet.



--- Instrumental ---



I whispered soft and sweet what's the use in waitin'

Love is wild and free and night is quickly fadin'

She said it may be wild but honey it ain't free

Would you lay twenty on me till I get on my feet...


Till I Get on My Feet

Bobby Bare's 'Till I Get on My Feet' stands as a quintessential example of his mastery within the country and folk traditions. Recorded for his 1977 album 'Me and McDill,' the track exemplifies the acoustic storytelling that defined his career, blending traditional instrumentation with a warm, resonant vocal delivery. As a performer known for his ability to interpret classic material and craft original narratives, Bare's rendition captures the quiet resilience often found in his songs. The recording reflects the polished yet authentic sound of late 1970s country music, showcasing his talent for evoking emotion through melody and lyrical content without relying on overt drama. This work remains a testament to his enduring appeal as a singer-songwriter who grounded his artistry in the roots of American folk and country music.
