Sure....country...that's mostly what I do....up-tempo for sure with a dance groove.
Wham Bam © 2008 Janice Hopkins
There in that little diner she looked pretty sweet Sort of innocent… not my usual type I like the ones you can’t take to meet Mama The ones that wear their low cut jeans so tight
But she came in the bar, when I was feelin’ weak She’d turned into the kind that I like Thought I’d been hasty , as that girl led me on Man, she looked hot beneath the neon lights
I wasn’t ready…didn’t have a chance Soon she had me wrapped up with one lovin’ glance
I said….
Wham Bam…Yeah, I’m your man How strong do you think I am Should have warned me ‘bout that first kiss Knocked me off my feet…I’m usually stronger than this My guard went down….don’t understand It was Wham Bam…..I’m your man
She had all my attention…and I knew it for sure Asked me to dance…let her lead from the start I was a lamb on a list set for slaughter She wouldn’t stop until she had my heart
Held me so close til I got carried away When the band stopped playin’, this is all I could say
Repeat Chorus:
Bridge:
Now my Mama loves her and I do too I come home at night and there’s things she wants to do Just one glance and she carries me away She acts all sweet and innocent…but she wants to play
Then it’s…..
Repeat Chorus:

HiDee Mich Sissy!
Hmmm..there's an ol Rock Tune with the Classic Line "Wham-Bam Thankyou-Mam" sung in it that I thought this'n'd maybe mirror, but naah..it's FAR-Kinder..& More-Country!
Cute Storyline, Fun Chorus, Spicy Bridge, Happy Ending..what more can a Man ask for! "KUDOS" & Good Luck, Sis! Big Brotherly-Hugs, BBStan

Hey Fla. Bro,
Thank ya' for the kind kudos....yup, country....that's what I do.(at least, that's what I'm usually shootin' for) Now if I can get my extremely talented, handsome, intelligent, eager to please music guy off his duff in Bay City....we may get to hear some music to this....LOL. Jeff....I'm joking with you.
Glad this works for you, Stan. I sooooo appreciate you always stopping by.

It is really cute and would make for a fun uptempo one!! One line didn't feel quite right to me:
She'd turned into the kind that I like
I know what you mean but it just felt clunky to me, though you are probably hearing the melody.

Hi Bren,
Thanks for giving this a read...yeah, I'll look at that line...sings fine in my head, but you never know...could be others wouldn't hear that right either. I appreciate you pointing that out. What's new with you?
Have a great day...

Hi Janice,
I've been reading a lot of your lyrics, and this is one of my favorites. I can definitely feel the "country" in this song (toby keith / trace atkins style?). I love your work.

I'm primarily a country writer as well, but have written in alot of other genres as well, but country is my most comfortable zone.
So glad that we know your name. Happy to lend a hand anytime.
