All I could do was just stare Her name was Claire and she wore a bandanna She was down for the Summer but lived in Indiana Up there. She lived somewhere up there ......................................She said "Pretty boy won't you give me your time and very soon you'll be mine, all mine I'll give you everything I have but what you really want is my Yankee Dime." We spent our morning just lightly tripping hot afternoons were for skinny dipping I stared. All I could do was just stare One sunny day we got somewhat wasted decided to discover just how she tasted Down there to see how she tasted down there. ................................ She said "Pretty boy won't you lay with me for what you are doing I will pay a fee Feeling this good might be a crime But I will pay you a Yankee Dime. For the next few weeks we sought the greatest pleasure committed acts I knew I would treasure I cared. I gave her my all and just cared The days became shorter the nights grew cooler I became aware that I would soon lose her Back there she had to go back there. ...................................She said "Pretty boy don't you look so sad. You are the best I've ever had Until I think of a word that rhymes I'm giving you all of my Yankee dimes. Now when I’m alone in the bright sunshine I remember how I earned those Yankee dimes ------------

I was not familiar with the term "Yankee Dimes" - had to look it up - never heard it used before... Interesting. fj 150+ Songs produced using BIAB RealTracks And 50 more... and some more...

Excellent song, great vocal supported by a great backing track Two thumbs up I arrived early to a restaurant. The manager asks, "do you mind waiting a bit?" I said no. "Good", he said.

I enjoyed the listen! -- David Cuny My virtual singer development blog Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing? BiaB 2025 \| Windows 11 \| Reaper \| Way too many VSTis.
