Put on your gun. Original song of mine.

*© Christy Dudley 2008
You'd called me "babe"
before I was even yours.
You'd said,
"Hey babe, let's drive out
to the desert,
and we'll sit there in our spot,
and we'll see what
develops
from there."

And you were always looking,
watching
hovering
all around me.
I could
feel you enter the room,
and I wouldn't have to turn around
to know it was you.

Till I'd say,
"Put on your gun,
and put on
your
smile,
and become the wind
like you do so well.
I'll be here
for a
while."

Lately I can't keep up with you.
You've got me
pinned against the wall
but I'm not through
investigating you.

Caught up somewhere
in between my past and my future, yeah.
I always knew what you were to me.
You were just dessert,
but became so much more.
So much more.
SO I'd say...

"Put on your gun,
and put on
your
smile.
And become the wind,
like you do so well.
I'll be here
for a
while."

So put on your gun,
and put on your smile.
And become the wind
like you do so well.
I'll be here for a while.

get an electric guitar...

enough acoustic singer songwriters out there.

Plus electrics are sexier.

plus..that acoustic sounds lifeless.

I have an electric guitar. A very nice one in fact. But everytime I try to record with my electric, it sounds like shit. But I think I'll keep this song acoustic, anyway. It's my song. I wrote it. So I'll decide what to play it on. Thanks.

[TheNEWBobDylan]

Fair enough. I think even with an ok strat copy, with a slight crunch, your song would come alive more...

How do you record the electric?
