Stayin' Outa' Trouble

Posted: Thu, 09/08/2011 - 20:32

Liner Notes: 

I'll attempt to write a couple lyrics from a female stand point
This gal thinks she's been behaving "Too" well
Feels like "kicking up her heels a little", life may be passing her by or something
Guitar, uke, Banjo, etc
'Bout mid tempo I suppose
Comments, collabs are in order

Lyrics: 

Staying Outa' trouble

V
Looking at this stupid T V
When there's nothing on
Half this meal will end up in the trash
Cooking for one sure isn't easy
I guess I oughta' get a cat

V
Got passion needing vented
And no one to receive
Need to get out and kick up my heels
There's gonna' be an explosion
This is exactly how I feel

C
Tired Of Staying Out Of trouble
Tired of playing it safe
Tired of spending nights alone
And a silent telephone
Tired of single wantin' double
Tired of staying outa' trouble

V
Guy at work been hintin'
I know I turn him on
Think he's holdin' back and waitin' for a clue
I like a guy who's not too pushy
I can do a little pushin' too

C
Tired Of Staying Out Of trouble
Tired of playing it safe
Tired of spending nights alone
And a silent telephone
Tired of single wantin' double
Tired of staying outa' trouble

V
Already did some checkin'
Yep, he's free all right
And he's been turning up in my dreams
Oughta' be ashamed of what we're doin'
But somehow that no longer bothers me

C
Tired Of Staying Out Of trouble
Tired of playing it safe
Tired of spending nights alone
And a silent telephone
Tired of single wantin' double
Tired of staying outa' trouble

B
Resistance crumbles
Passion overflows
Inhibitions falling
Just like dominoes

R C

Hi Wy....hey, a female perspective! I think the chorus flows swiftly and would be fun for a gal to sing! I like the humor and how lighthearted it is! We need to hear it, with all its attitude!

This is a really fun one, Wy! I really like the structure of the verses, too! Great Chorus, but I especially love that last verse leading into the Chorus!! Smile
