About This Song


I wrote this with Hunter Leath. Hunter writes for Daywind Music, and he produced and sang on the demo.

Nice collab, catchy and love the chorus/hook. Love the lyrics. Very original and fresh. Great job you two!

You can’t help but move to the music. Feel good song. Lyrics are great. Love how it all flows so smoothly.

This is a great original and humorous idea.  I like how the word ‘again’ is used because he already did that at least once before. Excellent job!

Cool song, sure there’s some young artist in Nashville who could really roll with this. Good summer time radio tune.

The flow of the line “patch that hole in the wall/probably won’t get to it all” flows so perfectly!

Listening to all your songs. Don’t know why this is not on the radio. Might be my favorite so far. Very clever lyrics.

Don’t Do List

Written by Brent Baxter

Trash needs pulled to the curb
Grass is getting too tall
Rent was due on the first
Need to patch that hole in the wall
I probably won’t get to it all
It’s not that I don’t want to
But if I’m checking stuff off
Got more important things to do... like

CHORUS
Don’t pull out the phone
Don’t find that picture of her, in a bikini and Coppertone on
And don’t hit send
On that I-miss-you text, naw don’t do that again
Don’t reminisce
Rewind & replay her kiss after kiss
Today’s a success
If I can just get
Down my “don’t do” list

I know I gotta move on
Get up and out of this house
I’ll get around to it ‘fore too long
But I got a lot going on right now... like

CHORUS
Don’t pull out the phone
Don’t find that picture of her, my Ray Bans and Coppertone on
And don’t hit send
On that I-want-you text, naw don’t do that again
Don’t reminisce
Rewind & replay her kiss after kiss
Today’s a success
If I can just get
Down my “don’t do” list

CHORUS
Don’t pull out the phone
Don’t find that picture of her, just sunshine and Coppertone on
And don’t hit send
On that I-need-you text, naw don’t do that gain
Don’t reminisce
Rewind & replay her kiss after kiss
Today’s a success
If I can just get
Down my “don’t do” list
Probably won’t get to it all
My don’t do list
