a little lesson on love,kinda.Thanx,Mike

http://soundclick.com/share.cfm?id=12861177

i gave you my heart and you broke it into
i ran back home and told my momma on you
she said dontcha cry son that's just the start
the first thing to go is always the heart
things will get worse son you'll see in time
when she's through with your heart she'll go for your mind
then all your money will soon disappear
your pride will fall and you'll start to fear
you can't eat you can't sleep she's got control
the girl won't be happy till she's got your soul
said the girl won't be happy till she's got your soul

many years passed now i'm on the mend
thought i'd try my luck at love again
it didn't take long and i soon discovered
i got myself caught up with a low down lover
wasn't nothin' new just more of the same
i'm startin' to think that love aint my game
i hear my momma's words ringin' in my ear
sayin' run boy run get the hell out of there
don't waste time you'd better hit the road
the girl won't be happy till she's got your soul
said the girl won't be happy till she's got your soul

said the girl won't be happy till she's got your soul

Sounds pretty good too!

Hey Mike!

I like the pace and the lyrics here. I think you can better develop this melody--it's not bad mind you, but I think you can enhance or pull a better one out here with these nice chords--your close, experiment with taking the melody up and down a bit more here.

This has a little "Latin" feel as well. I think a short chorus would benefit the song as well, again a little experimentation and imagination. Put the song on the shelf for a few days and come back, you might be surprised at what you start hearing in your mind musically. Nice start!

Michael--

Moma was usually right--Lot's to learn from this one--I can hear an angry hum- bucker solo spicing this one up--Just thinking out loud!

Write on!

Mike, you made me depressed.
Can't you fit in a line where she gets put away for dealing?
Vic


It's never too late? Yes it is, so do it now.

If, given time, a monkey can write the complete works of Shakespeare maybe there's hope for me.

Hey Michael,

A very wise momma indeed. A lesson to live by for sure. Great lyric. I also would have liked to see the music more developed. I am with Mac. I hear rockabilly on this one. Good to hear another one from you. It has been too long.

Michael,

Momma knows best! Poor guy should listen to the voice of experience. Cool easy flow to this one. Really enjoyed it!

"If someone is truly a jerk, or truly is not deserving of any positive reply from you, polite indifference is the best response you can give. Do not insult. Do not slam. Do not follow the urge to be nasty. Simply be politely indifferent." –Brian Austin Whitney
