Not been on in a while but this is a collab I did with my pal John Vaughan.
John wrote most of the lyrics and I put the tracks together.
I think it has a swampy feel.
Comments welcome,
Vic

GATOR IN THE SWAMP © 2020 Vaughan/Arnold
V
She was never really mine
It was just my turn
For a while it was fine
but in time I learned
Can't reason with a gator
With your head in its mouth
So I gave up trying
& headed on out
C
There's a gator in the swamp
Get eaten or run?
She don't need a menu
as long as there's a pulse
There's a gator in the swamp
Get eaten or ruuun ..........?
.......... ruuun .......
V
No blonde hairs
sticking out of my comb
Hands in my pocket
they're my very own
No creaks on stairs
When she sneaks home
The bed's now bare
and this bear's gone
Chorus
Inst.
B
Goodbye to you hoo F#m
Goodbye to you A
V
Waitress in the diner
she works real hard
Always got a smile
even when she's tired
My proposition,
we should conspire
Burn our bridges
Leave the gator in the fire

Goodbye to you hoo
Goodbye to you
