Heard at the Oscars for Halle Berry's Best Actress Award. Also available on the Monsters Ball soundtrack.
Encompassing the gamut of Americana, Red Meat effortlessly weave in and out of Western Swing Revival, folkie country songs, and lonesome, California Honky-Tonk
California's real Honky-Tonk band shines like burning stars in the Bakersfield sky. Red Meat marinate their warm and tangy twang with close gospel-influenced, male/female harmonies, textured fiddle tones, weeping pedal steel, tube-toned guitar picking, sweet mandolin chimes, an elastic rhythm section, and the occasional old-timey yodel. Encompassing the gamut of Americana, Red Meat effortlessly weave in and out of Western Swing Revival, folkie country songs, and lonesome, California Honky-Tonk angel anthems.

Lyrics
And if I had my way, there would be no tomorrow Just yesterday, when I thought I knew you. And if I had my way, there'd be no sorrow. And I wouldn't be so broken up and blue Can a man ever plan for what he'll suffer? Can a heart ever practice feeling down? Can a man just pretend he doesn't love her, When a woman tries to put him in the ground? And if I had my way, there would be no tomorrow Just yesterday, when I thought I knew you. And if I had my way, there'd be no sorrow. And I wouldn't be so broken up and blue Did your heart tell your mind to up and leave me? Or was it just the other way around? When I held you at night, were you just dreaming Of a way to lose the love that we had found? And if I had my way, there would be no tomorrow Just yesterday, when I thought I knew you. And if I had my way, there'd be no sorrow. And I wouldn't be so broken up and blue
