MY HEART ATTACK JUST WALKED IN

© Chapman/Severson 

Oh my heart attack it just walked in
I thought I'd gotten over this
and it's scary how she fires up my brain
and I become a yearning churning heart aflame

and oh -- and oh -- 
that stop-light flashing in my heart
and oh -- and oh --
that sudden thundering alarm
I don't need no EKG to fill me in
My heart attack just walked in

And oh she's walking over to me
and my pulse jumps and my knees go weak
She comes up, whispers my name
and I become a shaking quaking heart aflame

and oh -- and oh -- 
that stop-light flashing in my heart
and oh-- and oh --
that sudden thundering alarm
I don't need no EKG to fill me in
My heart attack just walked in

I knew she was trouble
from the get-go
She electrified 
my libido
She used me and abused me
And treated me mean
so I escaped from that
heartbreak machine.

But oh -- and oh --
that stop-light flashing in my heart
and oh-- and oh --
that sudden thundering alarm
I don't need no EKG to fill me in
My heart attack just walked in

HELP -- I need mouth-to-mouth resuscitation!  

Heart attack - heart attack - heart attack -



I like the sound of the drums and the bass guitar, I also like the lead guitar riffs and all the piano parts - sounds a bit like Jake Owens.

"Patricia Luce Chapman is developing into an Award-Winning writer."

Great work on having the vocals out front and good backup vocals. Nice catchy song and very good instrumentation. Nice original idea for a song.
