Title: Hey You (Not Pink Floyd, I'm not that good)
Post by: The Gobi Desert Canoe Club on July 26, 2023, 10:12:58 AM
Hi all, another one hot off the press. Hope you enjoy.   Willie

Fender Jazzmaster, Fender Tim Armstrong, Fender Precision, Boss BR-800

Hey you, how you doing now
I get along somehow
Now that she's with you

And hey you, don't you ever make her cry
Don't you ever hurt her
Like I used to do

Oh how I miss that girl
The only woman in the world
That could hurt me
Desert me for you

And you, if you ever change your mind
And if you discover
You don't want her as a lover
Just call me I won't mind

And hey you, just tell her that I need her
I want her like no other

Oh how I miss that girl
The only woman in the world
That could hurt me
Desert me for you

Inst

Hey you, how you doing now
I get along somehow
Now that she's with you

Oh how I miss that girl
The only woman in the world
That could hurt me
Desert me for you

Outro

Great song .. Really like the vibe of it .. Great production, lyrics and vocals.. The guitar playing was also really good. It reminded me a bit of an "April Wine" love song ..
Great work.

Lots of emotion in the vocals and the playing. Great lyrics with a heartbreak. The backing vocal treatment was interesting. The effect (harmonizer plugin of somekind?) had some artifacts to it, but it somehow added to the song. Kinda like a modern touch added into otherwise organic and retro sounding song.

Another winner from Willie. The writer of sad songs with compassion.

every now and then a Willie (not nelson) song pops up on my playlist that i keep on my phone for exercise and driving etc... and I always smile and feel warm inside.  Like i used to feel at HS dances when I could go.... yes... that is what your songs do for me Willie.. I feel warm inside!  This is just like that
