I could've loved you forever like the Baptist preacher said For better or worse but however You Ignored words in gospel red You”re in a Motel in Atlanta I'm home alone in Alabama ch Black dress fell on a floor Bible in a drawer Your one night stand destroyed a man Thats for damn sure Saviors hanging on a blood soaked cross For your broken commandment v2 You pretend to be the angel Do you deny dancing with the devil ? It doesn't add up you being faithful Catching you in them deceitful lies Are you suffering in damnation Hey Girl I’m counting on that Ch Bridge Should I break one myself Pull the 38 trigger You first in hell Ch Black dress fell on a floor Bible in a drawer Your last one night stand destroyed a man Thats for damn sure Saviors hanging on a blood soaked cross. For my broken commandment For her broken commandment To late for broken commandments

I could've loved you forever Just like the preacher said For better or worse, but however You ignored the words in red In that cheap motel You sent my heart to Hell Ch You're a broken commandment With your dress on the floor ...(or pants for female singer ?) That bottle was no bandit You put your Bible in the drawer My heart can't forgive the abandon Your a broken commandment.. v2 Smiling like a Sunday angel Dancing with a shameless devil Nothing could have seemed stranger Than a tryst between faithful Blue eyes singing in the choir Lit your adulterous fire Ch Bridge Now I break one myself Scorn tends to murmur Jesus said hatred Is kin to murder You still use my name But marriage takes two So which of you Do I blame I'll never be the same... Ch Tag I could've loved you forever Just like the preacher said For better or worse, but however You ignored the words in red

Bridge gets a tad poectic for country , alot of good stuff in this , shorten that v2 like Aldean to get to chorus quicker . Not sure on a female singer
Did you look at the Bible in the drawer, There in the drawers in motels I think My heart can't forgive the abandon. maybe abandon might be to formal for country , I thought of that rhyme too Your a broken commandment.
That works
I could've loved you forever Just like the preacher said
Lyrics Two black Cadillacs driving in a slow parade Headlights shining bright in the middle of the day One is for his wife The other for the woman who loved him at night Two black Cadillacs meeting for the first time And the preacher said he was a good man And his brother said he was a good friend But the women in the two black veils didn't bother to cry (Bye bye, bye bye) Yeah, they took turns laying a rose down Threw a handful of dirt into the deep ground He's not the only one who had a secret to hide Bye bye, bye bye, bye bye Two black Cadillacs Two black Cadillacs Two months ago, his wife called the number on his phone Turns out he'd been lying to both of them for oh so long They decided then, he'd never get away with doing this to them Two black Cadillacs waiting for the right time, right time And the preacher said he was a good man And his brother said he was a good friend But the women in the two black veils didn't bother to cry (Bye bye, bye bye) Yeah, they took turns laying a rose down Threw a handful of dirt into the deep ground He's not the only one who had a secret to hide Bye bye, bye bye, bye bye Yeah, yeah (Two black Cadillacs) It was the first and the last time they saw each other face to face They shared a crimson smile and just walked away And left the secret at the grave And the preacher said he was a good man And his brother said he was a good friend But the women in the two black veils didn't bother to cry (Bye bye, bye bye) Yeah, they took turns laying a rose down Threw a handful of dirt into the deep ground He's not the only one who had a secret to hide Bye bye, bye bye, bye bye Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
its all conversatioal lines
Scorn tends to murmur. to fancy I think , we do not talk like that
I'm not a stereotypical country bumpkin lol. I hate that... I refuse to limit myself to the lowest common denominator in Nashville, always have. I'm the anti-stereotype.
I'm convinced most country folk are tired of it too, especially Southerners.
So, I try real hard not to spoon feed the audience with generic "conversational" banality. Instead, I try to paint "visual word pictures"... and I'm not afraid to be concise and descriptive. The trick is not to overpower the listener with too much specific information; The lyric then becomes unrelatable.
Prosody is also a major factor. Lyrics are written to music, so they have to share a rhythm. Carrie's lyric is written for a modern "4 on the floor" country style. Which, in my opinion, is actually rock with a southern accent lol. I could write the same song in 3/4 time, with half the words, include more detail, and still be just as intentionally vague...
In short... I DO "talk like that"
It's your song, Ben... I'm just doing what I do
The journey is definitely more important than the destination...
So your saying my lines are stereotypical country bumpkin lol Its not bad as is I used a few of your lines, Well Carries song was a number one hit , I do study them I got her song She killed the guy with a car , and 2 women were invloved, They both met at the graveyard where they buried him and apparently got away with it. lol, So basically she's a psycho , So this other women never asked if he was married ? Right . Its her fault as much as his . It tugs at womens rights lets kill this guy , No divorce murder.. A man could never get away with this song . Double standards, Womens equality is convenient when they need it . You go to divorce court , Watch I'm the little poor girl oh shucks , Men lose all the time with that judge .
Well I shot her right ? is this a fruedian slip on alcohol ? its a maybe I might break Thou shalt not kill, practice is a near rhyme broken commandment is all in one rhyme , don't think I need to worry to much on a solid set up rhyme, So Jesus is on a cross for her cheating , Seems to work. Maybe practice don't work , its a sarcastic line on how many times have you cheated on me, if that makes sense and comes across at that, Maybe cheating takes some practice , its sarcastic still, Floor hits cross on a near rhyme
ha ha ha, Well men don't get a shout out much , Adulerty in %'s is usually men on doing that, That evolution thing I guess, if you wanna entangle creation and the big bang therories.
Eve blamed the serpent, Adam blamed Eve, Kane killed Abel, Sampson was a complete idiot, King David had Bathsheba's husband killed, Solomon had 700 wives and 300 concubines...
Evolution my A$$!
The journey is definitely more important than the destination...
Cheating hurts damn it, there's the set up solid rhyme Sampson , yup well women and all that , I'm not sure all that , the world being 4 billion years old , bible saying 6000 , Or some numbers like that Solomon had 700 wives I'm close to that , I'm sure its a personal problem , Sex is a mean addiction, Its also natural , So there's the confuison . Basically it comes down to self control. what are you supposed to think about on a pretty girl ? Politics ? not really , You can guess what most men think. from 14 years old to 90. The bible is full of fallen men over sex. Out of all the 10 , Adulerty is going to be number 1 . if you look on history and men , The failure is adultery from common men , to great men , Say like Kennedy. Here's the deal on that women are always considered the victim . Thats not true , she jumped in bed with him , so its complete bullshit. I'm not Saying RJ Kelly was not a piece of [naughty word removed] , But what were all them girls doing at his Mansion ? Expecting Sunday School lessons ? it was a free ride
Same bitch , I never did cheat on her , She ran off with a tow truck driver First was the same ran off with a manager of a restaurant. My respect for women vanished after 3 divorces , Though Im happily married now , But i'm edgy , always aware they can leave in a heartbeat .
Ok I killed her and we both broke a commandment The twist on the end I rewrote a few lines driving 5 hours to see Walker River , When now 3 wife’s have seen .I’m sure this will be the last wife
