Song

Take a Chance
It’s just money spent on an expensive whim
But if you don’t play your never gonna win
My husband's saying were pounding in my head
Over the years they would better have been left unsaid
But rather in anger or spoken in jest
These memories lingered on and started to infest
I displaced my anger on Buster the Dog
Wrote quotes down in a mixed up tyrant
Sent them off to Nashville for music and rhythm
Thinking nothing would come of this rant
But my minds spring off with new possibilities
What used to be mundane is exciting and new
Can’t wait for the post and emails too
What will be done with the thoughts I typed down
Will the rhythm be catchy and the music be humming
My words are hickish so country is my forum
Can’t stand blue grass or nasal twanging
The melody I hear has a poppish country mix,
My brother’s panicking thinking me mad
Am I Loony as Nicholas said?
My husband and daughter think it’s a lark
None of us can image what the finish product will be.
So work your magic and create a CD
The check for $369.00 hit the mail on Saint Patrick’s Day 2011
The Contract was for Where the Good Lord Split Ya
