It is no secret that I use Nashville demo services to produce and record my demo CDs. It's a really efficient way to showcase my songs and the price is right...albeit something I still need to save my pennies for!
The next song I will be recording is called "Should Have Been Gone", (working title, "Shoulda Woulda Coulda". I captured my first playing of the song on video, and it didn't come out too badly (although I hate the way my voice squeaks in the higher register...I'll never get used to that!).
So far, the feedback on the song and the lyrics has been pretty good. Now I can't wait to get it produced!
SHOULD HAVE BEEN GONE

LYRICS:
Well, your caller ID
Says Nashville, Tennessee,
And you just can't hide the smile on your face
Does she make you you happy
In ways that I can't see
And it hurts to know someone could take my place
Oh, baby, is it real this time
Or will you change your mind
Your confusion's just abusin' me
And I think that I....
Should have been gone - when you looked at her that way
I should have been 500 miles from here by now
Thought you would have been gone
When she made you lose your way
But you're here and I can't help thinkin that I
Should have been gone...
Shoulda woulda been gone..
A party for the "industry"
Bright lights in the city....
Where she slithered by in a skin tight little dress
And your blue eyes met her green
Filled the silence in between
And I'm sure i couldn't hide my bitterness
Oh baby, is it real this time
Or will you change your mind
Your confusion's just abusin' me
And I think that I....
Should have been gone - when you looked at her that way
I should have been 500 miles from here by now
Thought you would have been gone
When she made you lose your way
But you're here and I can't help thinkin; that I
Should have been gone...
Shoulda woulda been gone..
There's nothing I can do or say
Because you're gonna do what you're gonna do
And I'll just have to find my way...
(Musical Break)
But is it real this time
Or will you change your mind
Your confusion's just abusin' me
And I think that I....
Should have been gone - when you looked at her that way
I should have been 500 miles from here by now
Thought you would have been gone
When she made you lose your way
But you're here and I can't help thinkin; that I
Should have been gone...
