Summer Time (Mandolin Acoustic w/Daniel Wright)

V1
Punched the clock I got some overtime
Got some jangle in my pocket I’ll be flyin’ high
Tired of my boss, ‘bout ready to tell him off
Forget the week gonna let it all go
Gonna call my gal see if she’s ready to go
My boys are driving up, the rowdy’s about to start

CHORUS
Last Friday night, there were three fist fights
All best friends each of them were right
We’re all real good and we trust in God
To forgive our sins when we drink too hard
I can tell right now it’s a night to remember
Taking this party down to the river

V2
Want something to show for working so hard
A little brick house and a big old yard
Make my baby my wife make babies of our own
Gonna wave the flag of the American dream
But tonight gotta blow off a little steam
Don’t feel like no responsibilities

REPEAT CHORUS
INSTRUMENTAL BRIDGE
REPEAT CHORUS

Giving Up On Giving Up On You

Lyrics:

You can tell me what you really want, you don't got to say a word
Baby, I can always understand if you're speakin' with your curves.
Ah yeah

You don't got to spend the night
Girl I know you could, I think that you would like it
We could dance to the rhythm
Moving to your heartbeat I can feel it
Whenever you want, we can go
Tell me with your eyes, yes or no

You can tell me what you really want
You don't got to say a word
Baby I can always understand if you're speakin' with your curves
Ah yeah
So keep on talkin', so keep on talkin', so keep on talkin', babe
Like that, like that
Keep on talkin', keep on talkin'
Like that, like that, like that

When we go together
Girl I dream about you all the time, it scares me
How did you get into my blood
And I don't think that I could live without your lovin'

I don't want to wait for your kiss,
Girl I got to hear it from your lips

Verse 1:
Winter is slow in our beach town
Heading to where we can wind down 
Saw the results of the election
Western states are our destination

Packed up the pets we’re bound for Boulder
Rocky mountain high before we get older
Gas is cheap and the road is long
Gonna cross the state-line and buy me a bong

Chorus:
Got me a cough
But I’m feeling just fine
I can’t shake that off
I forgot the next line
What was I saying?
Oh yeah, something profound
I can play my guitar
While I’m laying down
I’m feeling good, I’m feelin’ fine
Found me my mellow and a real good time
(Repeat)

Verse 2:
In the mountains, hooked up with the townies
Now my wife loves to make brownies
Bought a hammock so I can take a nap
Dog’s at my feet and the cat’s in my lap
Grass is always greener on the other side
Don’t know if going home would be worth the ride
Might have to stay with my bud and my beer
And my sweetheart grinning ear to ear

Repeat Chorus

Real Good Time

Here are some songs I've written with co-writer Daniel Wright, and others. I'll be posting work tapes, acoustic demos, and fully produced demos of our favorite songs as we write them. Hope you enjoy!
