*Okay something different...
I have a close friend named Smokey Wilson. He is an award
winning songwriter and performer of Texas music. Well to me he is a great example of the ever so popular Texas
Country Music sound that is sweeping the world.. You see
if it is from Texas, it will have some attitude. So I write and perform alternative folk and Ole' Smokey didn't think I could write a country tune...so I wrote this song for Smokey..
with a Texas music attitude..here are the lyrics..

HEADED TO SMOKEY'S

HEADED TO SMOKEY'S I'M WATCHING THE SUNSET
POURED ME A COLD ONE, BUT I AIN'T THERE YET
HE ALWAYS MAKES ME SMILE
HE'S WALKING A COUNTRY MILE
TELLING ALL OF HIS STORIES IN HIS SONG

SINGING ABOUT, SINGING OUT THAT OLE' "TEXAS BITCH"
SHE DONE LEFT HIM WITH AN ANGRY, AN ANGRY ITCH
THE COWBOY BLUES
PAYING ALL THE DUES
TEXAS DANCE HALLS CAN HEAR HIS CALL

"COWBOY IN THE WHITE HOUSE" IS PLAY ON THE RADIO
HE LOVES HIS COUNTRY; IF YOU ASK HIM HE'LL TELL YOU SO
DON'T MESS WITH TEXAS OR HIS GUITAR
JUST HAND HIM ANOTHER LONE STAR
A TRUE TEXAN BY FAR

NOW HE DON'T LIKE IT "WELL" I TALK TO MUCH
HE ALWAYS FORGIVES ME WITH HIS TENDER TOUCH
HE SAYS "HEY GIRL SETTLE DOWN"
"KICK BACK AND LISTEN TO MY SOUND"
A TEXAS ATTITUDE THAT HE HAS FOUND

HEADED TO SMOKEY'S PLACE
I'M GREETED WITH A FRIENDLY FACE
CLOSE FRIENDS ARE HARD TO FIND
HE ALWAYS GIVES ME HIS PRECIOUS TIME

HEADED TO SMOKEY'S ONE MORE TIME
I REALLY DID HIS RYTHMNE AND RHYMNE
CLOSE FRIENDS ARE SO HARD TO FIND
HE ALWAYS GIVE ME HIS TIME

NORTH ON 183
TEXAS MUSIC GONNA SET ME FREE
NORTH ON 183
TO SMOKEY'S

---------
Hope you dig Nancy G "firefly" doing
COUNTRY...TEXAS MUSIC!!!
