Wild Twang You Make My Heart Sing...You Make Everything....Harder Poem by Ted Sheridan

A friend just said to me that I needed to write Country Western songs
Since I was so good at coming up with titles the way I do
A little Wherethefuckarewe.....bird can be heard singing in the background
As I try to throw a few lyrics down.....he doesn't seem to like the licks I pick
Because he keeps interrupting my concentration with his own cover of
The great George Jones's 'He Stopped Loving Her Today'
I must be just too much rock and roll to write a song about my dog getting drunk
Or my wife leaving me for some fellow who owns a local Wash & Suds....
'Bout all I can think of to write that might become a hit
Would be a song about how damn bad most Country Music really is....
