Song information
I used to perform at a lot of open mics (before covid) sometimes 2 and 3 in a night. I came home one night to find some lyrics on my pillow,
and they became this blues song. (Maybe he was trying to send a message)

The song was recorded live at a concert with my band "SusieCool and the Coolottes", but the mix had the vocals too soft, so I found a few
stem splitters and went to work remixing the stems (some splitters were better than others.) I still don't think I got it right, but the energy
of this performance was my favorite.
I used Cakewalk to gather up all the stems, to decide which ones to use. That was a bear, and after about a year, I finally got around to
tackling a mix a few days ago.
Stem splitters: Gaudio Studio, Bandlab, Moises, Stemroller. (at the time).
I have since tried using Ultimate Vocal Remover (UVR5) and Logic Pro, but not on this project yet. So far I find the last 2 have slightly better quality.

Lyrics
I Won’t Stay Here And Cry

I heard the bells ring in Texas
I heard the birds singing their song
I had just finished breakfast,
when I noticed you had gone

I saw your lights on the low bridge
As you quickly drove away
Then you were over the high ridge,
finding somewhere else to play

**Chorus
Will you come back and see me
Or leave me wondering why
I don’t know what will be
I won’t stay here and cry**

(Instrumental)

**Chorus 
Will you come back and see me
Or leave me wondering why
I don’t know what will be
I won’t stay here and cry**

So we have had our friendship
And we have had our fun
You were my apprentice,
and I thought you were the one

But lately things have been different
You have been out late at night
I have been considerate,
and now you have taken flight

Cho ...... (tag) I won’t stay here and cry (2 x)
I heard the bell ring in texas.....
