One summer day at a New Jersey park for load-in and soundcheck, I spied, across a wide open green expanse of park, a....girl and her....dog...interacting under a tree. Purely on thinking it was a good title, I went from there with any kind of story line this song might take.
All vocals and instruments performed by me. Recorded and mixed with Logic Pro on a MacBookPro.
***** LYRICS *****
A GIRL AND HER DOG
Looking out across the green
Not a soul to be seen
Just a girl and her dog
Just like any other day
Till my thoughts began to stray
Toward the girl and her dog
We spend our lives tugging on the leash
Whatever's out of reach looks so inviting
We wag our tails until the bitter end
Every now and then we think get our way
I turned away to watch the clouds
Dancing shadows all around
The girl and her dog
CHORUS
Like a bulldog with a bone
I can't leave well enough alone
And so this song
About a girl and her dog
