Trying to come up with a song

[Kerry Brown]

I've been trying to come with a haunting blues song. I think this riff is OK but it needs some lyrics.

[RVA]

Dusty boots, dirty hair
Dying slow, without a care
Being lonely made me brave
Got no woman to yell behave

Hit the road,
Or pave the way
Got no one to talk to
But got all the say

A heart of stone rarely breaks
But you gotta carry your own weight
Keep your eyes open and your fists tight
Make your own heat on through the night

I made this way I call my own
No surprises, no buried bones
The price I pay is worth the sweat
So I can die with no regret

Rock on cowboy!!

Just finished a band practice and saw this. I’ll see if I can sing it tomorrow. Thanks!

It sounds great!

Here's a very quick and dirty first take before I go to work. I had to change the riff a bit to fit the lyrics. Still needs a lot of work but the bones of a song are there. Thanks @RVA for the lyrics.

Nice job! My pleasure. Feel free to change the lyrics if you wish also.
