martin sexton makes sweet music

Steve and I headed down to Ann Arbor yesterday evening to enjoy a wonderful concert at the lovely Michigan Theater. Martin didn’t disappoint (neither did his opening act, Willy Porter – but more on him in a future post)

He played a lot of his new material off his album, Seeds but one of my favorites is Diggin Me off The American.  I found a live version of that song to share with you.

He rambles a bit at the beginning but you’ll be amazed what this boy can do with his magical voice.

I love these lyrics too… it reminds me of my college days.

How’s about a cup…Not coffee okay tea…That’s fine with me
Meet at 8:15…All right 6:30’s fine …Just be with me
Anytime of day…Anyplace you say…Just look like you do
Oh it’s my lucky day…I am here to stay with you

I’m diggin me diggin you …Diggin me diggin you

Later at the thrift store…Shopping for a gift for you
I could ask you back there …Behind the rack of shoes
What ‘s that over there ..Such a pretty pair
That’s us in the blue mirror
Such a vintage view …Posing here with you

I’m diggin me diggin you Diggin me diggin you

All of my life …I’ve been holding on
All of these years …I’ve been waiting…So patiently
All of this time …I’ve been holding out …For only you

We meet at 3pm by the ATM on Saturday
You pick out the show …Then it’s off we go to the matinee
You’ll be who you want …I’ll be who you want
I’ll be your Ray Liotta
It’s my lucky day …I am here to stay with you

I’m diggin me diggin you
