Gettin’ Cozy
A Jayne Mansfield reference might work in drag or cabaret but it ain’t country. And “…triple decker on a double dare…”? That might go over at Tootsie’s, though “..black and decker on a double-dare…” might be a safer bet. But “…slippery swingers linger in a tantric haze…”? You put that in a country song and somebody’s gettin’ their butt kicked. It also wasn’t a song that I could perform live easily. So I thought that maybe, if I wrote the “country version” of the same song…?
I knew I’d need an entirely new lyric, but I wanted to keep the original vibe. So I de-synthesized the music, wrote a new lyric, an homage to the one Burton, Louise and I wrote, but a lot more “rural”.
So here is “Gettin Cozy Out Behind the Barn”. Thanks for reading and listening. Please subscribe for blog updates on the main blog page.
