I'm Your Toy

by My Darling Clementine

/

about

Recorded at the kitchen table sometime during lockdown. Passing the time as best we could, playing through some of our favourite old songs. We only ever played this live once, at a festival in Oslo. A stonewall classic written by Chris Ethridge & Gram Parsons

lyrics

You may be sweet and nice
That won't keep you warm at night
Cause I'm the one who taught you how
To do the things you're doing now
He may feel all your charms
He may hold you in his arms
But I'm the one who let you in
I was right beside you then
Once upon a time
You let me feel you deep inside
And nobody knew, nobody saw
Do you remember the way you cried?
I'm your toy, I'm your old boy
But I don't want no one but you to love me
Oh I wouldn't lie
You know I'm not that kind of guy
Once upon a time
You let me feel you deep inside
And nobody knew, nobody saw
Do you remember the way you cried?
I'm your toy, I'm your old boy
But I don't want no one but you to love me
Oh I wouldn't lie
You know I'm not that kind of guy
