lyrics

You sell misery wholesale
and I want to buy your lot
so roll up your shirtsleeves
and show me what you’ve got.

’Cause baby, I’ve had happiness, and it wasn’t worth the price I paid.

You sell misery wholesale
and I only want one thing.
Baby, I ain’t after romance
and I don’t need a ring

To hell with all your sweet talk. I’ve had enough of that.

chorus:
I’m in the market for a heartache
spin me once around the floor
make me dizzy, crazy, baby,
crying for more.

But don’t waste my time
Let’s get to the part
Where you give me what I paid for
When you break my heart.
Break my heart.

Well, you sell misery wholesale
And I hear it’s a steal
It’s cheap at twice the price
so let’s make a deal.

Tell me what you want for it and I’ll meet you halfway there.

You sell misery wholesale
and I hear you’ve got enough
So I’m buying all your pain, dear,
’cause I can’t buy me love.

Send me out a truck full, and I’ll take it, C.O.D. Listen to me.

chorus

Her work blends both the real and the imagined, and the musical landscape she navigates dips into country, Americana, and singer/songwriter influences, drawing comparisons to musicians who sometimes get summarily lumped into the folk category, such as Patty Griffin, Lucinda Williams and Jonatha Brooke. ... more
