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.

I'd Avoid Me Too Lyrics
Dwight Yoakam
Here I sit all alone
Just a wonderin' why
You must have slipped out
While I was high
I know just how it feels
And I'm not blamin' you
Cause if I had to choice
I'd avoid me too
I've heard tell people say
I'm half worth nothin' at all
While that may not be true
Dead to rights
It sure ain't landin' far wrong
There's little question or none
Wasn't much you could do
And if I had the choice
I'd avoid me too
Now I'm having fears
And doubts
Right along with everyone else
And here lately I'm not so sure
I should even be seen
With myself
[But] here I sit all alone
Just a wonderin' why
I guess you slipped out
While I was high
I know just how it feels
And I'm not blamin' you
Cause if I had the choice
I'd avoid me too
If I had the choice
If I had the choice
If I had the choice,
I'd avoid me too
