Hey Brother

I wanted to do a country song for my brother Mike, but I really don’t know much about country music. This is the result.

Hope you like it, Mike.

LYRICS:

Ain’t got no woman
Ain’t got no car
All I got is bills
and a half assed will
and my guitar

I’m not complaining
It’s not all bad you see
The day is young
the sun is strong
and I feel free

Hey brother
Life could be worse
Is it an obstacle?
Is it a curse?
It’s just another thing I’ll have to overcome
Hey brother
I’ll be fine

Ain’t got no children
Ain’t got no home
All I got is blame
Someone else’s name
and some time alone

But I’m not bitching
Made myself a plan
No matter what
No ifs, ands, or buts
I’ll be a wiser man

Can you post your lyrics? I can't make them all out and they sound intriguing.

Sounds like you know exactly what you're doing! Bluesy country for the win! Hope your brother appreciated it. Tess S

That sounds like one of the early PF tunes. Excellent!

This is gorgeous. Great song with cool vocals and lovely twinkly music.

Maybe not exactly country, but close enough and still cool as hell :)
