After "Fresh Country" Daryl said Liz loves to sing country so I said "I'll write her a tune."
 
Hope you enjoy it.

Verse 1:
I remember when I was told
To stand by your man
But all too soon that got old
And now I’ll take a stand that’s bold
 
Chorus:
I’m no lady in waiting
I’ll wait for no man
I’m no lady in a painting
A possession to hold in your hand
 
Verse 2:
I may never be first lady
I won’t play second chair
And I won’t be your sweet baby
I’ve got to live my life daily
 
Repeat Chorus:
Guitar Solo
 
Verse 3:
So if you will stand next to me
We can be as one
Then we’ll have love care free
And change our world eternally
 
Repeat Chorus x2

I really enjoyed this.  If it's a demo though:  1.  backing track is way too busy (it has great performances but it needs pared down) 2.  the womyn needs attitude if she's gonna sing those words. 3.  mix up the meter of the words, for instance instead of each stanza ending on three quarter notes...mix it up with multiple syllable words on eighth notes. Just some ideas, don't mean to be a brat!

Sounds country to me but I would not necessarily be the best judge of that.  I thought that the vocal sounds a little dry compared with the rest of the instrumentation chaps and chapess.  Sure you can sort this Ed.

Thanks for sharing.

Great stuff Baps

Everythang is nice and twangy, so it qualifies. Liz doesn't have enough pain and anger in her voice to carry the lyrics for this though, I'm afraid. She's just too nice for this kind of country, lol.

I really enjoyed this.  Well played and sung by all.

Sounds real purdy!

Thanks for the listen eph.

echo what others have said. country is not my thing at all but it sounds like you have done a great job with all the slidey twangey things Ed

Clever lyrics, nice production as always.  I think Liz pulled off the southern accent pretty well too, mostly.  But I'm no expert, being from PA & NY. ;)
