She's Got A Kid on Soundcloud She's Got A Kid on YouTube A song maybe about overcoming rumors. Style is _MILKCOW.STY (Milk Cow Mississippi Rag Guitar) RealTracks in song: 3140:Mandola, Rhythm AmericanaFolkCoolAndy sw16 075 RealTracks in style: 4734:Guitar, Acoustic, Rhythm BluesMississippiChugginRag Sw16 090 RealTracks in song: ~1032:Guitar, 12-String Electric, Strumming Ev 085 EZDrummer Bob, Tune Monger, Millard played harmonica on this 1-4-5 Blues tune. I played bass and sang. She's Got A KidTime will tell ya cuz I got to say goodbye. I didn't know she had a kid. See, I'm driftin' and I need that clear blue sky, and all the gold that nature hid. I'm on my weary way. She's got a kid and I can't stay. I'm a loner, spending days upon my horse. At night my sky fills up with stars. I need to ride, but feel a deep remorse. I'll write it down in my memoirs. There's one thing you should know. She's got a kid. I gotta go. I rode back in to town. She met me at her door. Told me I had it wrong; I didn't know the score. She told her friends about childish things I did. The rumors spread about her sexy kid. Me! Now not ridin' in the hills in search of gold. My lonely thoughts wander home. No more driftin'. Time to put the gold on hold. Me and my horse no longer roam. Now everyone can see she's got a kid and it's me. She's now my pot of gold. She's got a kid, and it's me.

Marty,
That some fantastic rock n blues...
Love the song, arrangement and stellar mix. Awesome vocal. I love the way Bob's harmonica follows you around throughout the song. Perfect! Video is very cool as well.
Another great one!
Bob

What a fun song with a nice punchline in the end, creative songwriting. I don't know what genre this song is, or actually I do, it is Marty genre  Some blues, some country and a lot of heart. Nice groove with the BIAB band, EZ & bass, expressive singing. The harmonica solo is simply superb, nice dialog with the vocals. Janne

Hey team, cool western satire tune, clever word play. Excellent bass & harmonica playing. Vocals are clear and easy to make out without reading text. Solid mix. Thank you for sharing. Misha.

Super cool tune, guys. Can I be the only one that thought from the post title that Bob Millard had fathered a kid? Ha! A lively toe tapper, and a LOT of fun, even with my brief confusion.

Hi Marty,
This is a great listen. It's an excellent write, an excellent arrangement and terrific performances. You and and Bob have really pulled out all the stops on this one. It was very easy to hear that a lot fun went into making this track. You've both done a great job.

Ok...I get it.... I thought this was about a woman who had a child whose daddy was Bob Milford. I was misreading the subject line.... The song is She's got a kid, with a guest musician playing the harmonica who's name is Bob Milford.
Nice song and good playing on that harp Bob!

As commented on YT, I was very much reminded of Steve McQueen as the bounty hunter in "Wanted: Dead of Alive" as he met so many ace ladies, but always rode on! Great song!

'''...got a kid with..." reads, in my era of Strine, that the girl in the story had a child with Bob Millard. Cool song with excellent puffin blues harmonica ... Marty The Kids! That's Mr The Kid to you. GREAT stuff: enjoyable, twisted narrative, that warm voice, that supple yet solid bass. Ace.

Marty
"She's Got a Kid" is a heartwarming and relatable track that perfectly captures the nuances of navigating love and attraction with a touch of reality. I think the song's strength lies in its honest and straightforward storytelling. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of the situation, avoiding clichés and instead offering a refreshing perspective.
The instrumentation is thoughtfully arranged, creating a mellow and inviting soundscape that complements the song's lyrical content. There's a simplicity to the music that allows the vocals and the story to take centre stage. The melody is catchy and memorable, and the overall vibe is easygoing and optimistic, despite the slightly complex subject matter.
Your unique and always great vocals are sincere and convey a genuine sense of emotion. I can feel the empathy and understanding in your delivery. It's a song that's both thoughtful and enjoyable, making one reflect on the complexities of modern relationships while tapping your foot along to the beat.
"She's Got a Kid" is a testament to your amazing songwriting ability Marty. It's a unique and charming song that was well worth a listen. For anyone looking for something a little different, with a touch of heart and a dose of reality, this track is definitely for you. Loved it

In my effort to be "Oh So Seriass" I forgot to mention Bob's amazingly great harp playing..................sorry Bob.
