about

This was written at the very beginning of EIEIO. We started out in 1983 with the idea that we would play a couple of local bars. We learned 70 songs in two weeks and went out playing - old Stones, Rockabilly, some Country, some Motown kind of stuff. Then Rick and I began writing songs for the band so we could develop set lists of original material. As we worked them in, we tended to write in the vein of the cover material we were doing, hence the Country-ness of this one. We wanted to do this a little differently, our first thought was as a duet, so we recruited Lisa Germano. Once she did her stellar vocal, we decided it would be better with me in the background. It appears on the CD as a hidden track, but I'm not certain anyone's ever heard it, so I separated it out for this digital release.

lyrics

Lately Little Darlin'
@1984 Steve Summers

Lately Little Darlin' I been dreamin' about you
An' I can't seem to spend enough time sleepin'

Since I was a kid I've been afraid of the dark
Always scared theBoogie Man might get me
But ever since we met I find a change has taken place
And the sun don't set soon enough for me

An' a-lately little darlin'
I been dreamin' about you
An' I can't seem to spend enough time sleepin'

Other girls I've known have been mine in the daylight hours
Mine to have to hold sometimes for keepin'
But you can never be mine
To another you're betrothed
So the only time I'm happy's when I'm sleepin'

An' a-lately little darlin'
I been dreamin' about you
An' I can't seem to spend enough time sleepin'

When the sun is high I feel like cryin'
Ev'ry wakin' hour I feel like dy-yi-hi-in'

An' a-lately little darlin'
I been dreamin' about you
An' I can't seem to spend enough time sleepin'
No I can't seem to spend enough time sleepin'
No I can't get enough

about

EIEIO Sierra Madre, California

EIEIO, est. 1983, put out "Land of Opportunity" and "That Love Thang" on Frontier Records in the mid '80's. In 1999 after a ten year break, we decided to play again and released "EIEIO" in 2007. Here you'll get unreleased material, and hopefully new material from Rob Harding, Mike Hoffmann, Mike Gorman, Scott Gorsuch and me, Steve Summers, time and distance permitting. Thanks for checking in. ... more
