Just looking for any reaction or any suggestions to improve it
I know bar song's are over done and it killed me to use a door and four rhyme but I felt like it needed to be there
Do you think I connected the verses to the chorus at all?
Thank you and have a good day!

Hell said yeah
Lyrics written by Aaron Authier
Country - male - mid tempo

Wastin' my weekend down by the pier
At a good ol' joint chuggin' down ice cold beer
When in walked this crazy eyed fella
Sat down next to me an' winked at the bartenda'
Said good thing this ain't no church because
It's about to get a little rough

Hell said yeah!
But heaven said I better stop
what I'm thinkin'And rethink it
Or I'll never get that golden ticket
Well There's only one place
I want to spend eternity in
And It's on the corner of sin
Hell said yeah!

Well I figured man this guy's crazy
But I'm drunk and need some entertaining
So I bought him a beer uh maybe four
When these city boys walked through the door
Hour later they were playin' high stakes poker
I thought we were seconds away from another civil war

Hell said yeah!
But heaven said I better stop
what I'm thinkin'And rethink it
Or I'll never get that golden ticket
Well There's only one place
I want to spend eternity in
And It's on the corner of sin
Hell said yeah!

Well that poker game got rodeo wild
And It turns out one of them city slickers
Won't be smilin' for a while

Hell said yeah!
But heaven said I better stop
what I'm thinkin'And rethink it
Or I'll never get that golden ticket
Well There's only one place
I want to spend eternity in
And It's on the corner of sin
Hell said yeah!

Yeah, there's only one place
I want to spend eternity in
And it's on the corner of sin
Hell said yeah
Hell said yeah

Aaron.
I LIKE IT! There will never be too many bar songs for this old cowboy.
Door, Four, You should never apologize when it works. Unless you are gonna have these guys come in the window, you pretty much gotta rhyme with Door :-)

Am I correct in my understanding that our hero got this guy drunk just to watch him stir up trouble? That's sinister!
Grinning from ear to ear at the thought of it.

Nice job.


If music be the food of love, why is it so hard to keep my family fed?

Hey Airun

If Kenny got away with it in Coward of the county I am sure you can get away with it here. My favorite line in this whole piece

Well that poker game got rodeo wild
And It turns out one of them city slickers
Won't be smilin' for a while

Now that's some awesome writing bro. The rest aint nothin to sneeze at either but I could build a whole song off of just this little snippet. Great job it may be a bar song but hey it's a good one!

Hey Peter thanks for stopping by
Yes he got the crazy guy drunk to be entertained
Glad I could get you to grin
Take care!

Hey Derek, I haven't heard coward of the country
But I will check it out later
Thanks for the good words!
Take care man

Howdy Stan
Thank you for commenting
I thought of the crazy guy beating both guys up
But then figured if i was that other guy
there's no way I'd give him a chance to pop me one
Take care!

airun,

"Rodeo Wild." That would be a hook in its own right.Great line. Sounds like a bar to stay out of.

Dropped a lady off at one like that in Watsonville (known during WW II as "Sin City") once. They had a reputation for guys getting too drunk to hit the urinal and people needing to be taken away in ammulances. It was a biker hangout, as I recall. Somebody got killed there the next week, and they were right, nobody was a very good shot in the bathroom either.

Keep writing.

Hey Anne, thanks for reading it!
Take care

Hey Skip Thanks for reading it too!
I wrote a lyric and the hook was rodeo wild and it wasn't very good
And I was reading it and wanted to incorporate it in this somehow

I've never been in a real bar (not that i can't) Just not a drinker
Them tough city bars are hell though, many bad things go on there
Thanks man and take care

Hey, Aaron.
The big city bars ain't the problem. You're safe in almost any "club". Just stay away from small town taverns and pubs :-)

I'm a huge Chris LeDeux(RIP)fan, and Rodeo Wild sounds like something he would have written. I'd enjoy seeing your work. Did you post it here?

Again...Love the song!
So I bought him a beer uh maybe four HA! That's so great!

Heyy Peter, thanks, always makes me feel good when someone says the like what I wrote, I have re written it so many times (23)
But I am happy with this version

I will stay away from the irish pubs they get outta hand and any bar or tavern toby keith is in

I am not familiar with chris ledeux but I will definitely check out his songs, I'm not musically inclined so I don't have any music to any of my lyrics but that will likely change when I demo this sometime in the next century
Once again thanks for stopping in and spending the time
when you're not in the best of shape
I'll be thinkin' of you and your wife

Take care
