Another song demo with my vocals and programmed drums. The plan is to give real drums and a great singer. All comments welcome. Thanks!

Seedy Side of Heaven
Words and music by Ray Taylor, 2017
The morning kicks off early
Cop lights blinking on the lawn
The details of last night are blurry
Though the salient points are known
Hitch up to the station
To pick up your car and keys
Seems the tighter wire I’m walking
The shorter is my leash
So we’re parking in your trailer
Connoisseurs of hand-me-outs
Last year’s outlook was bullish
Till the bank totaled the T Bird out
Sweet dreams of Sangri La
Guess we learned what they’re about
And while the lottery may yet deliver
The forecast otherwise is drought
Gimme a few more weeks with you
I’ll be walking on the seedy side of heaven
Tonight comes wrapped in velvet
Whiff of voodoo in the air
And the evening’s hot and surly
Breath of bayou in your hair
Things we do on a summer night
Are better done than mentioned
Let me say in brief and I repeat
You sure got my attention
Ever since I’ve been with you
I’ve been walking on the seedy side of heaven
And every day I spend with you
That’s time enough to break my heart in two
Leave me crying adieu
Ever since I’ve been with you
I’ve been walking on the seedy side of heaven
