Rath, my sweet, you're taking an awfully long time in there...Rath? Rath?

I just got in from a club here in Nashville where I performed one of my songs. It is called "I'm The One." I am pitching it to Sawyer Brown. They were a winner on Ed McMahon's Star Search years ago if you go back that far.

I'M THE ONE

Living on an obscure planet on the edge of the galaxy
Surrounded by a universe of fear and uncertainty
6 billion people clinging to their faith with no guarantee
When we're alone like this, honey, it's just you and me

I'm The One, I'm The One who loves you
I'm The One who rallied to your side
And everyday, I bless the day I found you
I'm The One, I'm The One who loves you

Caught up in the contradictions of a global society
I wonder if you understand Bin Laden's philosophy
I'm wondering, too, if you can be happy with a man like me
When we're alone like this, honey, it's your destiny

I'm The One, I'm The One who loves you
I'm The One who rallied to your side
And everyday, I bless the day I found you
I'm The One, I'm The One who loves you

Trying to read your thoughts and feelings
Trying to stay close to you
Reaching beyond mere circumstance
Willing to take a chance

I'm The One, I'm The One who loves you
I'm The One who rallied to your side
And everyday, I bless the day I found you
I'm The One, I'm The One who loves you
I'm The One, I'm The One who loves you

Well, see, that doesn't make any sense. How can you save the planet Earth when you're living on an obscure planet on the edge of the galaxy? Looks like someone's fleeing from their troubles! And really, if you leave, then the non-recycling terrorists have won. But it's a sacrifice I'm willing to make.

When I am not busy saving the planet I am out trying to get other songs cut. I am pitching a song called "Hard Earned Love" to Gretchen Wilson. If you know country music, you know Gretchen had a hit with "Redneck Woman." She is part of CMT's Muzik Mafia with Big & Rich who did "Save A Horse, Ride A Cowboy." If you read this, Gretchen, please cut my song on your next CD! I have been trying a long time! http://www.jimcolyer.com/music/

HARD EARNED LOVE

I've come across the desert in the boiling sun
I've been the lonely one
My heart's beating rhythm
My soul's on fire tonight

I got 'em standing in line
I can have my choice
But you're the one I'm thinking of
I'm really, really ready
I'm ready for some Hard Earned Love

Been working all week just to earn my pay
Living for Saturday
Another Friday night
Stepping out with a man like you

I'll wear my shortest skirt
My high heel shoes
Pick me up at 8
I'm really, really ready
I'm ready for some Hard Earned Love

Drinking, dancing, making the rounds
Every honky tonk in town
I can't wait til you take me home
And we're all alone

I've been a slave too long to that assembly line
I just wanna let go
My heart's beating rhythm
My soul's on fire tonight

I got 'em standing in line
I can have my choice
But you're the one I'm thinking of
I'm really, really ready
I'm ready for some Hard Earned Love
I'm really, really ready
I'm ready for some Hard Earned lOVE

I first heard Randy Travis
When I was just 15
That voice was sent from heaven
It made its mark on me
I made my way to Nashville
To the Grand Ole Opry stage
I heard Randy sing about Jesus
He sang Amazing Grace~~Swim With Dolphins

I gotta say your forced rhymes are quite astonishing.
I've never heard of someone trying to rhyme 'stage' and 'grace'
Keep the creative spark.

Just don't post the results of the spark for us to read.
For your sake.
And ours.
