My Country Song

I think I'll write a country song about the weasel that 'done me wrong' We'd have been married thirty years today if he hadn't had a penchant to stray. I got the pickup truck, so we'll leave that part out but there's lots of other things I can whine about. I can hit a few notes on this guitar of mine, now I need to come up with some catchy line. Country songs need to have a refrain, something so catchy it'll stick in your brain. They're all about liars and cheaters and such and cheapskate dates who want to go dutch. I'll make a fortune when my song's a hit. My inspiration was my ex the ....jerk? Yes, I think I'll write me a country song about the weasel that 'done me wrong'. I'll put in a verse about socks on the floor, then casually mention his red-headed .... friend? Maybe I'll say that he broke my heart I'm still not quite sure where to start. Most of what I write may even be true. I could mention his cologne smells like... aqua velva? Yes, I'm sure I can write one if I try. It'll hit the charts and from there just fly. I know I can write a country song. Anyone can when they've lived this long. We all have something twangy and sad, something good in our past that turned out bad. * any resemblence to actual events is purely coincidental ** and thanks Nancy for the blog that inspired this
