Mountain Girl , let's go out dancin'
7/28/08 ©Pete Larsen
Mountain Girl , let's go out dancin'
'neath the harvest moon tonight
I'm in the mood for prancin'
and that moon is oh so bright
Mountain people seem so friendly
can't be wrong to breathe clean air
your hair's so doggone healthy
I could count each strand there
Ain't on the take, the make 'er prowl
not out to make your inner lioness roar
just wanna wipe away any bit of scowl
and dance you 'round that mountain-hardwood floor
Mountain Girl , let's go out dancin'
'neath the harvest moon tonight
I'm in the mood for prancin'
and that moon is oh so bright
I knew you were a dilly when I looked into your eyes
you looked right back through me not one bit surprised
so self-assured and casual , that how mountain-people are?
must have somethin' to do with viewing crispy mountain stars
Mountain Girl , let's go out dancin'
'neath the harvest moon tonight
I'm in the mood for prancin'
and that moon is oh so bright
We'll be scootin crost the dancefloor
without one care in this-here world
those mountain boys will have to wonder
how they missed such a perfect pearl...
Yee Haw let's go dancin' , mountain Girl
Here we are wracking our brains today
to write lyrics that rhyme
and if we succeed, they'll end up in time
as tommorrow's cliche's...
Pete

Hi Pete,
I like this. Like JM, I can't really find anything to crit or nit so I'll just read again and tap along with it. I love the line about "crispy mountain stars" , very cool, imo. Nice writing.

It's not that I'm stingy about sharing ; just didn't want to detract from someone elses "dance tune" , so I bided my time 'til the coast was relatively clear . It has been a long time in the making , only hope it worth the wait , it has been swiming around in my head for some time now as you know...
I'll take it's a good one from you anytime...

Sweet Caroline,
I've been inclined to agree
well , is that so biased of me
"good times just never seemed so good"
be one heck of a song if Neil Diamond didn't already do it...
SHUCKS!!!

Kaley Willow ,
You don't have to let me off the hook so easy , just because I havn't wrote much lately.
You caught me red-handed with my pants down and my hand in the cookie-jar!
That line originally was twice as longand went sorta like.
if I'd the time ,I could count each and every strand of sandlewood colored hair there
As you can see , most of that line ended up on the cutting-room floor . Good eye , Kaley . It's nice to know you still can't get away with much around here...
