This has become one of my sing along songs that I do. If you're in Reno or San Diego contact me as I play all over.
(HappyRon, Taylor, Mayes)
VERSE 1 I had to learn my woman's ups and downs To find out why she keeps me around You can ask my better half I’ve studied every tear and laugh And this is what I’ve found
CHORUS: Now I know how to make her smile Any time she starts to cry She likes laying in the hay Staring at the sky Hearing the river run by The Gravel in my morning voice Smell of bacon on the rack She likes her coke and jack and yeah.... She'll have fries with that!
VERSE 2 The words I love you With our morning smooch The feel of sawdust under her cowgirl boots Her coffee in her favorite cup As we watch the sun coming up With a shot of grandpa's hoooooch
BRIDGE Making up after we've had a fight Making love in the middle of the night
OUTRO After dinner bowl of chocolate ice cream snuggling with me after her bad dream Leather jackets, roller skates Funny candles on her birthday cake She likes her coke and jack and yeah.... She'll have fries with that

Hi HappyRon! A good pace to this song that makes it very engaging, along with the captivating lyrics - I liked the meter of these lines … She likes laying in the hay Staring at the sky Hearing the river run by What is ‘Jack’? As an Aussie, I haven’t heard of that food before. Andrew
Fun song, Ron, and so well-delivered. I esp like the doubled-up notes in the chorus lines. Tell us what you used from Band-in-aBox, and a little more about the development of your work!

thanks for the comments, I added in the track listing.
I've been using BB for a long time and most of my "studio tracks" use it as a basis.
This song started as a much slower song that one of my co-writers started and I sped it up to make it more match my style. Also we originally had an intro, verse, chorus, prechorus, bridge and outro all of which had different music behind them. I found it exhausting to sing so under the idea of "less is more" i got rid of the pre-choruses and made the outro more simular to the other sections and it works better now for me at least.
It's great fun to sing along with, most of my live songs are sing alongs.
Nicely done, Ron. Yep, certainly can see how this would be a fun song with the right crowd to sing along. Nice job with the outrageous vocals, and the band (in a box) is very well organized. Do you have a live band when playing live? Must be a blast...

Yeah i play frequenctly around Reno, San Diego, Nashville and other places. Recent highlight is the Cavern Club in Liverpool. Thanks for the kind comments
Great production on both songs. Enjoyed listening to both.
