Lyrics

Every time I set and think about a girl driving country roads
That top down jeep is driven by you
Every time I make a wish for a bride and preacher man
The long white veil is worn by you
But I know my dream can’t come true
That I’m just wasting my time
‘Cause I know I’ll see you with him
And it will break this heart of mine
Every night I say my prayers for the girl with long brown hair
Praying that God’s watching over you
Every time I shed a tear girl has me crying in my beer
That tank top, daisy duke girl is you
But I know my dream can’t come true
And I’m just wasting my time
‘Cause I know I’ll see you kiss him
And that just eats at this heart of mine
Every time
(Instrumental Break)

But I know my dream can’t come true
I’m just wasting my time
‘Cause I know I’ll see you kiss him
And that just eats at this heart of mine
Every time

Love it Charlie.
The backing the voice and the lyrics spot on prosody.
Tapping my toes. Cheers.

Hi Charlie,

What a great backing! And you sound really comfortable singing against it. I enjoyed the listen. Why don't we hear more from you? You've definitely got a talent to share.

All the best,
Noel

Great lyric writing Charlie.

The choice and blend of instruments has given the production substance and quality.

Enjoyed this from start to finish. Well put together and very well delivered.

I enjoyed this Charlie; the lyrics conjured up pictures, which is not as easy as it might seem. Sincerely sung too, with just the right backing sounds.

Hi Charlie.

A great blend of traditional and contemporary country.

Super backing track and an excellent arrangement - particularly liked the solo

The lyrics are good and you sing it well.

Enjoyed it!

Folks jumped on the accolades quickly and we agree.

The imagery is rich and textured and would make a great video.

And to steal from Noel "What a great backing! And you sound really comfortable singing against it. I enjoyed the listen. Why don't we hear more from you? You've definitely got a talent to share."

Indeed!

Very enjoyable, Charlie.
A catchy chorus and just right instrumentation, but the highlight for me is your vocal. Your voice sounds really authentic ( I can`t think of a better word - in the way Jerry Garcia sounds so right on those Grateful Dead country tunes).

You have a good voice Charlie and I think this style suits you well.
Reminded me a little bit of 'If I were a carpenter'in places
It certainly had my feet tapping..............every time.

Nice guitar and Lyrics

Thanks Rog. Yes, that particular solo sounded to me how I would have approached the solo if I could actually do one. Thanks for listening.

Charlie,

You've put some very fine Instrumental fills in the backing track which altogether make a perfect blend with your voice. A refreshing country song with one of your best vocals we think.

I was trying to think of a way to say this, so PLEASE hear me out. I know this song was well written because I felt sorry for YOU!

I literally thought to myself "How awful to have that happen to such a great guy!"

Then I remembered this was just a song!

*If this is from personal experience, just let me believe it's "just a song" wink

Great job!

Hi Charlie,

We loved it! Although it's traditional country, it still hass an element of a more contemporary song. That's a good combination, in our opinion. As has been said previously ... great backing tracks! Superb in every way! Wish we heard from you more often!

I got the refrain idea from a Ralph Murphy lecture on YouTube. Repeat the title within the first 60 seconds and average at least 7 repeats. Glad you enjoyed your listen.

Thanks for listening and the kind comments. I thought the imagery would be good for a video too but I'm not so sure that doing a video is a sharable talent I have.

Charlie... this is good. Reminds me of PPL and that's a good thing.

Nice work. Good job on the song and the vocals.
