This country heartbreak song mixes sharp humor, attitude, and a little revenge with a whole lot of truth. When loyalty disappears and promises turn into lies, sometimes a dog sounds like the better companion.



Melody and lyrics all written by me. Used SUNO to create the demo.

Written 4 years ago. Heard the words "a piece of mine" & "peace of mind" on radio within 15 sec of each other. That was weird. Then, I thought "a piece of my mind" also. Thought I'd try to put all three together. More of a challenge than inspiration.

This is a tribute to my mom. She would have loved finally hearing my songs.

I was just having some fun and tried to make a song out of every new term people are using for single life since it is such a trend currently. I imagine a group of women in a bar, having a great time, all singing along to this at the top of their lungs.

Country, not pop
I was doing an experiment. I asked my Facebook friends if they preferred simple or more complex and detailed songs. Surprisingly, the majority of answers was for simple.



I wrote this simple song about long distance relationships. In a time of online dating with possibility of deception and of time apart, this is what I came up with.

I live on the east coast of Scotland in a city called Dundee which has a population of around 185,000. It's situated by the River Tay which is often referred to as the Silver River because of its silvery sheen. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=93pUXN71byE

I sat at my kitchen table after a crazy weekend of shows. Seems like I had been everyone but home for a long time, and not much to show for it. The house was empty, with my wife and 2 girls at school for the day, but there were remnants of the week I had missed. Dishes in the sink, games out on the table, and a bowl of crusty Mac n cheese. As I sat there in the quiet, reevaluating my life decisions, I started looking at our old table and wondering what it wisdom it would offer if it could talk.
