Country song

Those that know me know that country is NOT my favorite music, by any stretch. So this should be funny to you. I was joking with Lea about how I could write a country song in 20 minutes...it just had to include alcohol, a dog, and someone leaving someone. She thought it would be fun to hear me try...so, here is my silly country song (written in UNDER 20 minutes).

Those that also know my "fondness" for Blackberry Brandy will especially enjoy one of the lines in there. The lyrics are below and the song is here: http://www.jamesgottry.com/assets/songs/country.mp3

It's cold outside, but it's freezin in my heart
since you've gone, yeah since we've been apart
i haven't felt nothing, nothing but the lonely
and every drink that i take doesn't even break the pain that's in me

Please please I can't take it come back, please please i need you by me
please please i can't take it come back, i can't take it even with blackberry brandy

I keep drinking down my sorrows hoping that tomorrow
you'll come back, and i'll see you walking up the drive with our yellow lab Stew
