I'd sing it for you, but.......


Here is the farcical country music song I wrote some years back. It is better if you picture it with the guitar strumming and if you know the tune. But, this is all you get for now:





Had a real bad night

Got in a fight with my lover
The truck broke down

She ran off with another

Well, I can't believe the things that happen to me.


My dog jumped out
Got hit by a semi
You should've seen
that poor little mutt fly

Well, I can't believe the things that happen to me.



Alright, so I only have the first verse down. I was working on a chorus, but I gave up. Nonetheless, I think it has all the elements you need for a good country song....minus the strumming. I think it would be best with a banjo.

Don't leave out Candi on the fiddle!

I've heard that song with the guitar. Rememer guys, it is country, not bluegrass or the blues or any other blue hued music style. Maybe the fiddle, but no banjo or harmonica.
