Dave Mathews Band - Pay For What You Get (Under The Table & Dreaming)
Work ourselves, fingers to the bone
Suck the marrow, drain my soul
Fingers to the bone
Pay your dues, and your debts
Pay your respects, everybody tells you
You pay for what you get
You pay for what you get
Everybody asks me how she's doin'
Has she really lost her mind?
I said, I couldn't tell you
I've lost mine
Words, words, words, have you heard
A bird in hand is much better than,
Any number free to wander
Fly away... Stay
You pay for what you get
You pay for what you get
Everybody asks me how she's doing
Is she really all she says...
Everybody asks me how she's doing
Since she went away
I said I couldn't tell you
I'm OK I'm OK (I'm OK)
Surprise, surprise
You pay for what you get
You pay for what you get
Everybody asks me how she's doing
Has she really lost her...
Everybody asks me how she's doing
Since she went away
I said I couldn't tell you
I'm OK I'm OK I'm OK (How are you?)
Pay for what you get
Pay for what you get...oh...
Pay for what you get
Pay for what you get oh...
Oh...

This song soothes my soul. It also makes me miss LeRoi terribly. I thank DMB forever for letting us have endless hours of recordings from over the years to keep the memories alive :) This is one of my favorite "underrated songs".

Man, I love this song...I remember in '94 when I bought this album...and I found this gem at the end of the album...probably my fav DMB song...I also love "Let you Down"...incredibly moving mellow songs. Most of their best songs werent singles or even played alot, but they need to play these songs more.
