Country Songs

I should write songs about how David's car has broken down 5 times in the last month, but I just draw a blank, as it happened again today. Or maybe about the way it feels to see a 7 month old want to say Grammie when he sees me. Indescribable! Or about how oh-so-dear my family and friends are. And about answered prayers. But no. The light-hearted stuff has come more easily these days.

Here are the words to the new songs...critiques welcomed!!! It Ain't Always Easy, Me and Jesus, My Own Band...and then there's Run, Honey, Run...I think I'll wait and share that one once we have the music!

It Ain't Always Easy
(c)2009 Eva Wilson

It ain’t always easy ~ always bein’ right
Can hardly hold up my head all day, the sun is so bright
~ Shines right in my eyes
No, it ain’t always easy ~ always bein' right

It ain’t always easy ~ always bein' right
Me winnin’ every argument, you losing every fight
~A wimper and a whine
No, it ain’t always easy ~ always bein' right

It ain’t always easy ~ always bein' right
I gotta listen as you cry yourself to sleep each night
~While I hug my pillow tight
No, it ain’t always easy ~ always bein' right

It ain’t always easy ~ always bein' right
Seein’ ya beg me for forgiveness, Lord knows I’ll try
~Shug, you’re such a sight
No, it ain’t always easy ~ always bein' right

It ain’t always easy ~ always bein' right
Nuff said, I told you so, let me say it all polite
~You’re wrong all the time
No, it ain’t always easy ~ always bein' right
