Not sure I want to clog up the main forum board quite yet, but hey, I just talked to Hear to Learn on the phone for like an hour and was scratching my head on how to do a Rolling Stones soundalike for SongTradr.

But now, I know how to write a hit and Hear to Learn is my new best buddy!

Thank you Hear to Learn!!

Do you think this will ever get on the charts? Is it politically correct? Should I post it on the forum in a few days???

Jumping Town
By David Snyder

V1

I should have known
after dark
You don’t go walking
In Central Park
Behind a bush
I could not see
A man in a black dress
Starting jumping over me
He was jumping up
And he was jumping down
He was jumping side to side
And he was jumping all around

CH

And you gotta watch your back
When there’s nowhere left to hide
You got to hold your junk
When you cannot run inside
You got to watch your business
Keep both feet on the ground
When you’re walking in the darkness
of Jumping Town

V2

There was a pretty divorcee
Who wasn’t divorced yet
She was married to the devil
And they had made a bet
They lived in Southampton
Never worked a day
But when the night came along
The mice would play
She played me for a fool
And I’m not finished yet
She stole all I had
Now I’m forever in her debt

CH

And you gotta watch your back
When there’s nowhere left to hide
You got to hold your junk
When you cannot run inside
You got to watch your business
Keep both feet on the ground
When you’re walking in the darkness
of Jumping Town

Bridge

You can cry ‘til your eyes are bleedin’
But you’ll never get what you need
You can want it all you want baby
But sometimes
You got to let it bleed

CH

And you gotta watch your back
When there’s nowhere left to hide
You got to hold your junk
When you cannot run inside
You got to watch your business
Keep both feet on the ground
When you’re walking in the darkness
of Jumping Town
