lyrics

What Sells

Darlin, your goods live up to their name.
You wear that dress like a candle wears a flame,
and I want to be the hot wax pooling at your feet--
dripping and drowning in your heat.
I want to buy what sells.

You don't got a man; you got a dozen.
And they all lining up to eat from your hands.
All that power must come at a cost, honey.
But the market will bear a price that's fair.
And I'm willing to pay for what sells.

Darlin, I got coin just like them,
and I don't want to spend it on any other whim.
For you, I'll count out all my shells;
baby, I want to buy what sells.

Other boys might be scared--come to you shaking like a leaf.
But I'll walk right up to you, sure-footed as a thief.
Preacher man says I'll go straight to hell;,
but I'm deaf to them church bells, sugar, when you're near
'cause I want to buy what sells.

CHORUS

about

Elijah Cash Pleasanton, Texas

Eli mainly plays the blues. Not because it is his chosen or favorite method; rather, it's what life gave him—it was in the tool bag he was born with, if you will. Eli’s music is for lost boys and for women who want to be found. He’s pioneering the market of city slickers who feel something’s missing—because it is.

Eli is a contributing artist to the Crowdsource Inspiration project.
