Lyrics

LOOKING FOR A GIRL
© P.L. Chapman


I'm young and strong, got some money
sown some wild oats in my life
Now I want to build a family
so I'm setting out to find a wife
She'll love me, a working man.
want to bear our kids
won't mind the grit that's in my hands
when I come home from the rigs

Well I'm looking for a girl who'll love me like crazy
not too much a lady sweet as a daisy
Looking for a girl who's a friend and a babe
And when I find her I'll never again be --
looking for a girl

She'll be there if the levee breaks
she'll weather storm and sun
she'll always have a smile to share
hard times won't scare her none
Well I might find her off in Rome
or down in Galveston
I'll search the world and when I find her
I'll know where she's coming from

Well I'm looking for a girl who'll love me like crazy
not too much a lady sweet as a daisy
Looking for a girl who's a friend and a babe
and when I find her I'll never again be - -
looking for a girl

I'll feel simple peace around her -- oh a sweet release
and when passion flares - it's a true love affair

and I'm looking for the girl who'll love me like crazy
not too much a lady sweet as a daisy
Looking for a girl who's a friend and a babe
and when I find her I'll never again be --
looking for a girl --
no, no no no more looking for a girl
not looking for a girl

The instrumentation sounds great! A really clean recording which is refreshing. The song has a nice structure to it, and the story is clear. I like the melodies too.

Fun song! Good lyrics and fabulous vocals. Great job!Pat yourself on the back! :)
