Purveyor of the bakersfield sound, country singer-songwriter Dwight Yoakam grew up in Columbus, Ohio before heading west and finding a home two doors down in Bakersfield, CA. "Honky Tonk Man" and "Guitars and Cadillacs" are classic songs in their own right, but nearly every song Yoakam churns out stays true to his sound and finds popularity among modern country fans, despite the saturation of the pop-oriented contemporary Nashville sound. The most recent release, "Blame the Vain" continues in the routine of solid albums from Mr. Yoakam.

Borrowed Love Lyrics
Dwight Yoakam
Dwight Yoakam & Earl Scruggs
At every glance, you steal from me
I catch your eyes still offering
You've got desire bought with deceit
'Cause borrowed love ain't never free.
--- Instrumental ---
I vainly swear in my starved mind
To crave your look only one more time
And pray not to reap what we might sow
If borrowed love should start to grow.
--- Instrumental ---
Borrowed love, not yours for givin'
Borrowed love, not mine to seek
Borrowed love, this road we're takin'
Toward one another's awful steep.
Forgiveness for what passion wreaks
Bears a hurtful cost that don't come cheap
It's wages paid with misery
'Cause borrowed love ain't never free.
--- Instrumental ---
Borrowed love, not yours for givin'
Borrowed love, not mine to seek
Borrowed love, this road we're takin'
Toward one another's awful steep.
At every glance, you steal from me
I catch your eyes still offering
l got desire bought with deceit
'Cause borrowed love ain't never free...
