I was a little confused by the internal contradiction in the 1st verse...

We worked real hard in the sun and we don't have nothing to prove"
but it's a country song so just went with it after the 2nd listen.


Thanks for listening. Yep.... I caught that "contradiction" as a writer, but it was Danny's song and we just needed to get the song recorded as we didn't really have the time to rewrite much. After the fact, Danny agrees and he will pay more attention to not assuming the listener knows what he's thinking and put it into the lyrics so everyone knows what he's trying to say. The sitting all day was on the weekends.

Thanks for catching that aspect and pointing it out. This was a learning experience for Danny and I. Him with regard to writing and me with regard to working on other folks music from square one.

You can make excuses or you can make progress but not both.
