Wrote the lyrics on bits of scrap paper while out shopping with her and the kids a few weeks back, finally got time (And quiet ... very difficult to record acoustic in this house) to get it down. Got the idea from a bunch of teens out on a Saturday afternoon bender......

Sorta modern folk?

Hows that for out of the box  ;D

They capture the sentiments exactly

Reminded me of John Prine at first also.  Wow how catchy it this??  I loved it. Bouncy and light.  Sounds like a party to me. Downed their pints in one.  Does have a folk feel to it.  Great job!!

I loved this. It is so well done from all angles. In my very short time here I have heard so much variety and I never expected to hear something like this. First class.
