New song for the kidows and widows. I'm really trying to write up to a song a day, which means not all of 'em gonna be gems. However, let's see what you think.

This one is very much a 1970s Leon Russell/Billy Preston-like diddy about a dude who's married to a lounge singer, and he knows she's probably cheating on him with all sorts of seedy hotel businessmen.

Not sure where I come up with this crap. But, alas.

Finger
© 2006 William R. Welton

Verses 1 & 2:
--------------
Settle down my child, no need to borrow
trouble's gonna yield some pain tomorrow
Relax and say a prayer
He's just the product of your mind ...

Married life can be a pain, I'm told that
boring men can be a drain, I know that
Stop and take a breath
He's nothing but a waste of time ...

Chorus:
--------
Just because that ring burns your finger
Doesn't mean you follow-through
Lots of men will fall for the singer
Of the hotel band but I was the lucky man who married you

Verses 3 & 4:
--------------
Call me from the concierge to tell me
You'll be playin' late again, Danielle,
I can hear it in your voice
But I have a hunch what's on your mind ...

Is he in town on business, do tell, I want to
hear about his clientele, or is he
the type who buys you scotch
And hopes that you can drink me blind ....

Repeat Chorus 2X ...
