You Better Treat Her Right New Original - Daryl

This is in the classic Texas type country blues rock swing kinda thing..(That is a genre, right?)
 
Fun lyrics, I think.   I hope you enjoy.  Comments welcome.
 
In a rare occurance, I only used my Thinline Tele on the three guitar tracks here.

You Better Treat Her Nice
She’s a well-heeled lady and that’s no maybe
 She’s a real good looker too
 She’s a real straight shooter and she’s couldn’t be cuter
 And she knows just what to do
 She’s caught your eye and you think you’ll try
 But maybe you better think twice 
 She might go along or she could do you wrong
 So you  better treat her nice

She’s left a trail  of broken males
 From here to Kalamazoo
 You might as well know she’s a black widow
 And she’ll be comin’ after you.  
You should think about leaving ‘Cause looks are deceiving.     
You better run for your life 
 
You better make tracks.   You better watch your back
And you better  treat her  nice.

You can have a good time.    You can wine and dine.
But you better watch yourself    Like things that taste or feel real good 
 She’s hazardous to your health     
She might seem demure but one thing’s for sure
Reckless just won’t suffice
You can have your fun but then you better run
And you  better  treat  her   nice 
                     
She’s a real smooth talker but she’s a stalker
 And she might be stalkin’ you.
 She might cuddle up close and then deliver a dose
 Of a sweet but deadly brew.
 There’s no chance she’s lookin’ for romance 
 
You better not roll the dice,
 You should fold your cards.   Give her your regards
And you  better  treat her nice

    I think the genre thing is about right.
    It's a fun tune.

    I like it, nice cans too. (ahh, that I'm listening on?)

    I think the guitars sound great.

    Herb and I are about to give you some real Texas Country music ;-) 

    This is classic Daryl though and was well received.

    Daryl, you are consistently awesome.  This sounds excellent on my monitors and headphones.  You always have a way with words, and a great voice, to boot.  Bravo.

    All the best,

    Excellent Daryl (cool name btw) - 'She's left a trail of broken males' - brilliant.
    I love this mix and arrangement but I reckon the song would suit a bigger, angrier version too

    Herb , Thanks.  I was just remaking today to someone that I know nothing about the Grateful Dead.  I never followed them in their day and I can't name a single tune they did, although I was into that whole California scene in the 60s and early 70s especially anything with a country rock flavor.

    Lynn.  Thanks for the nod on lyrics.

    Frank - Thanks much.  I have this thing for shuffles... I like them.

    Daryl -  Thank you O Keeper of the Cool Name.  I was just tickled that I actually rhymed demure with for sure.

    Scotty -  I think what you were trying to say was it needs some fiddle: and you're right!  Thanks man.

    Marcus -  If I made your foot tap, it would have packed the dance floor, and that's always a keeper.  Thank you guitar man.

    Daryl

    Awesome work, really tasty tones and style on the axe. Vocals are real cool too and kind of remind me of the Everly bros.

    WoW this is really really tight I haven't read the other comments but is it really your own tunes? If it is I think you should be greeted in some hall of fame for semicountryrockstyle sort of song - very nice.

    Grant - Thank you!  Everly bros.... hmmm.. I thought they were better than that.

    James - Thank you for the kind words.  There are so many incredibly good people on this site that it keeps raising the bar.. which is a very good thing.

    Paulo - I thought maybe you were one of those males between here and Kalamazoo.  Thanks!

    Warren - Thanks dude.  I think I'm going to invest in a tube pre for vocals and bass.  I just purchased the EQ bundle from PSP and intial tests show them to be pretty good for bass.

    eko - Thank you.  Songwriting is my one strong trait, there seems to be no end to the melodies out there, and lyrics come in big spurts when they do come.  I've really stopped doing covers except in a live situation.

    Gary - Thanks so much.  I too think there might be some good lines in there.   I'm still planning on being down your way next May or June at the latest.  Would love to stop by.

    Jan -  Thanks from a real old guy.
