I was on a third rewrite on a song that a producer insisted I make changes on. Was kind of in a funk over it and beating myself up as a songwriter. I put on a Pat Green record just to chill out and one of the songs made me say, out loud, “I wish I could write like that”.... then I did!
This is a song for songwriters. Have at it!

Write Like That
Brad Hacker
I wish I could write songs about Texas
The way they did thirty years ago
Wish I could write like ol Pat Green and Townes Van Zandt Songs that make you feel alone when your with friends Yeah I wish I could write like that
I would write songs about sadness, lost love and rodeo Songs about broken dreams and cowboys coming home Songs about simple things and a girl to call your own Yeah I wish I could write like that
Songs about Abilene, Lubbock and Amarillo Just like Guy Clark and Robert Keen
I’d ride off in the sunset in a big ol Cadillac Yeah I wish I could write like that
Yeah I wish I could write like that Yeah I wish I could write like that

Hi Brad,
I like this song and what a great vocalist and harmonies. It a good song but kinda short ... If you play it live, you could add a solo then run through the CH again. Sounds great! Thanks, Brent
