Shelby Lynne cut the loose and personal Identity Crisis when she came to Capitol in 2003. And now, she's taken her desire for intimacy and capture-the-moment spontaneity even further with her latest work, the aptly titled Suit Yourself. "I've learned a lot in six years," Lynne says in her Alabama drawl, "and the main thing I've learned is to not second-guess my own self. I feel like I know what I want to do, and I'm just doin' it." Lynne makes her intentions clear from the getgo. The first sounds you hear on Suit Yourself are the chatter between the artist and her cohorts as they get ready to lay down a take.

Iced Tea Lyrics

Shelby Lynne

You look like an art piece floating in my mind
And I am told fortunes are gold
Fortunes are gold.
Bucket loads of gratitude I feel for you
You are fine. I pour you like wine, pour you like wine.

As the desert sky turns into shadow light
Beside me on my bed tonight
Your love is the only light I see
You feel like the only home I've ever known
And I am shown
Tonight.

You seem like a memory that I've always known
And it has shown as long as I go, long as I go.
Safe and lost forever in a fantasy
Tosses and turns. My heart never yearns. My heart never yearns.

There's no better place to be than in your eyes.
There's no other sight to see
You're the cornbread and iced tea of life.

You feel like the only home I've ever known
And I am shown tonight
Oh how I'm shown
Goodnight.
