[Verse 1]
Well, I was sittin’ on the porch, strummin’ my guitar,
When Daddy walked up, said, "Son, let’s raise the bar.
We need to have a talk ‘bout our family line,
It’s a little bit tangled, but it’s workin’ just fine."
[Pre-Chorus]
He said, "I’m your daddy, but I’m also your bro,
Thanks to Mama’s love, and the way things go.
And don’t forget, I’m your cousin and your uncle too,
It’s a family tree twist, but it’s all brand new."
[Chorus]
Oh, my daddy’s my brother, and my cousin’s my kin,
Thanks to Mama’s heart, and the mess we’re in.
It’s a circle of love, though it’s hard to explain,
But I’ll never forget, we’re all one and the same.
[Verse 2]
Now, Mama’s in the kitchen, cookin’ up some stew,
She’s the glue of this family, and she knows what to do.
She said, "Honey, don’t you worry ‘bout the way it’s spun,
Love’s what makes a family, not the way it’s done."
[Pre-Chorus]
She said, "Your daddy’s your brother, and your uncle’s your friend,
And your cousin’s your daddy, but it all depends.
On the love that we share, and the ties that bind,
It’s a family tree twist, but it’s one of a kind."
[Chorus]
Oh, my daddy’s my brother, and my cousin’s my kin,
Thanks to Mama’s heart, and the mess we’re in.
It’s a circle of love, though it’s hard to explain,
But I’ll never forget, we’re all one and the same.
[Bridge]
Now, some folks might laugh, and some folks might stare,
But we don’t give a hoot, ‘cause we’re beyond compare.
It’s a family reunion every day of the week,
With a love so strong, it’s the future we seek.
[Verse 3]
So here’s to my mama, the queen of it all,
She built this family, and she stands ten feet tall.
And here’s to my daddy, my brother, my kin,
It’s a family tree twist, but we always win.
[Chorus]
Oh, my daddy’s my brother, and my cousin’s my kin,
Thanks to Mama’s heart, and the mess we’re in.
It’s a circle of love, though it’s hard to explain,
But I’ll never forget, we’re all one and the same.
[Outro]
So I’ll strum my guitar, and I’ll sing this tune,
‘Bout a family so wild, we could fill the moon.
It’s a family tree twist, but it’s all okay,
‘Cause love’s what matters at the end of the day

big Willie

**[Verse 1]** Well, the sun’s goin’ down on a dusty old town, And the neon lights are buzzin’ as I mosey around. Big Willie’s Saloon is the place to be, Where the whiskey flows free, and the girls all see. **[Pre-Chorus]** If you’ve got a big Willie, you’re the king of the night, Chasin’ all the poon ‘til the mornin’ light. But if you’re runnin’ small, don’t you hang your head, You can still drink your whiskey ‘til you fall outta bed. **[Chorus]** Down at Big Willie’s Saloon, where the good times roll, With a shot of whiskey and a heart full of soul. If you’ve got a big Willie, you’re chasin’ the moon, But if you ain’t, well, you can still drink at Big Willie’s Saloon. **[Verse 2]** Now, Sally’s at the bar, and she’s lookin’ real fine, With a wink and a smile, she’s a shot of sunshine. Big Willie’s in the corner, holdin’ court with his crew, With a laugh and a toast, and a story or two. **[Pre-Chorus]** If you’ve got a big Willie, you’re the man of the hour, Chasin’ all the poon with your magnetic power. But if you’re runnin’ small, don’t you fret or frown, You can still raise your glass while the big dogs run ‘round. **[Chorus]** Down at Big Willie’s Saloon, where the good times roll, With a shot of whiskey and a heart full of soul. If you’ve got a big Willie, you’re chasin’ the moon, But if you ain’t, well, you can still drink at Big Willie’s Saloon. **[Bridge]** Now, the night’s gettin’ wild, and the band’s playin’ loud, The crowd’s gettin’ rowdy, and the whiskey’s gettin’ proud. Whether you’re big or small, you’re welcome here, At Big Willie’s Saloon, where we drown our fears. **[Chorus]** Down at Big Willie’s Saloon, where the good times roll, With a shot of whiskey and a heart full of soul. If you’ve got a big Willie, you’re chasin’ the moon, But if you ain’t, well, you can still drink at Big Willie’s Saloon. **[Outro]** So here’s to Big Willie, and the saloon he runs, Where the whiskey’s always flowin’, and we’re havin’ fun. Whether you’re big or small, you’re part of the crew, At Big Willie’s Saloon, where the night’s always new.

Tito’s and curves-bjmorris530-AI-singing
Tito’s and curves

[Verse 1] Well, the neon lights are buzzin', and the jukebox is alive, Got a bottle of Tito’s, and I’m feelin’ so revived. She walked in like a thunderstorm, shook the whole damn room, With a smile that could light the night, and hips that chase the moon. [Chorus] It’s Tito’s in my glass, and a queen in my sight, She’s a little bit of trouble, but she’s feelin’ just right. I’m chasin’ big women, with a heart full of pride, With Tito’s in my hand, I’m along for the ride. [Verse 2] She’s got a laugh like whiskey, smooth and warm and sweet, Dancin’ like a hurricane, knockin’ me off my feet. We’re spinnin’ ‘round the floor, and the whole world disappears, Just me, her, and Tito’s, drownin’ out my fears. [Chorus] It’s Tito’s in my glass, and a queen in my sight, She’s a little bit of trouble, but she’s feelin’ just right. I’m chasin’ big women, with a heart full of pride, With Tito’s in my hand, I’m along for the ride. [Bridge] They say bigger the heart, bigger the dreams, And she’s everything I’m chasin’, or at least that’s how it seems. With every sip of Tito’s, I’m a little more alive, And she’s the kind of woman makes a man feel like he’s thrived. [Verse 3] Now the bar is closin’ down, but we’re just gettin’ started, She’s got a fire in her eyes, and I’m feelin’ kind-hearted. We’ll take this Tito’s bottle, find a spot beneath the stars, Dancin’ in the moonlight, right where we are. [Chorus] It’s Tito’s in my glass, and a queen in my sight, She’s a little bit of trouble, but she’s feelin’ just right. I’m chasin’ big women, with a heart full of pride, With Tito’s in my hand, I’m along for the ride. [Outro] So here’s to Tito’s vodka, and the women who stand tall, With a heart as big as Texas, and a love that’s ten feet tall. I’ll keep chasin’ big women, with Tito’s by my side, Livin’ life full throttle, with nothin’ left to hide

Schurft-rutger-AI-singing
Schurft

(Intro - Banjo intro, upbeat en een beetje ironisch) (Verse 1) In een studentenhuis, in hartje Utrecht stad, Daar heerste chaos, bier en... wat was dat? Een jeuk die niet te harden was, 't ging rond als een lopend vuurtje, Van kamer tot kamer, een ware plaag, dat vuurtje! (Chorus - Met een Americana-country twang) Schurft, oh schurft, de studentenplaag, Krabben tot je bloedt, dag en nacht, geen klaag. Van die vieze mijtjes, onder je vel, Studentenleven is soms net een levende hel! (Verse 2) Eerst dachten we: "Ach, een beetje eczeem," Of "Allergisch voor die goedkope Chinees, neem ik aan." Maar de huisarts zei, met een grimmig gezicht: "Jongens, dit is schurft, en het verspreidt zich razend, verplicht!" (Chorus - Met een Americana-country twang) Schurft, oh schurft, de studentenplaag, Krabben tot je bloedt, dag en nacht, geen klaag. Van die vieze mijtjes, onder je vel, Studentenleven is soms net een levende hel! (Brug - Instrumentaal intermezzo met banjo, fiddle en mondharmonica, een vrolijk deuntje met een sarcastische ondertoon) (Verse 3) De GGD kwam langs, met witte pakken aan, Alsof we een nucleaire ramp hadden doorstaan. Iedereen in quarantaine, geen feestjes, geen vertier, Alleen maar krabben, zalf smeren, en liters bier... (om de pijn te verzachten, natuurlijk). (Chorus - Met een Americana-country twang) Schurft, oh schurft, de studentenplaag, Krabben tot je bloedt, dag en nacht, geen klaag. Van die vieze mijtjes, onder je vel, Studentenleven is soms net een levende hel! (Bridge 2 - Gesproken, met een droge, cynische toon) Weet je, ze zeggen dat je van reizen wijzer wordt... Maar van studentenhuizen krijg je vooral schurft. En die kutbeesten, die zijn resistent, Tegen alles behalve... nou ja, een vlammenwerper, denk ik, verdomme. (Verse 4 - Iets sneller, meer opgefokt) Dus zit je daar, met je huisgenoten, allemaal onder de jeuk, Te krabben als een stel apen, 't is een regelrechte breuk Met de sociale hygiëne, een ware schande, Maar ja, wat doe je eraan? Het is de vloek van studerend Nederlande! (Chorus - Met een Americana-country twang, nu met een mix van wanhoop en berusting) Schurft, oh schurft, de studentenplaag, Krabben tot je bloedt, dag en nacht, geen klaag. Van die vieze mijtjes, onder je vel, Studentenleven is soms net een levende hel! (Outro - Banjo versnelt, eindigt met een dissonant akkoord en een gefrustreerde schreeuw) SCHURFT! GODVER-DE-GODVER! krab, krab, KRAB... Iemand... een biertje?... En een schuurpapiertje?...

Down That Ol" Dirt Road-zackym2023-AI-singing
Down That Ol" Dirt Road

(Verse 1) Down that ol" dirt road, there lies an old Chevrolet, Rusty and worn, but it held our yesterdays. We spent hours turning wrenches, covered in grease, Side by side, it was there that I found my peace. (Pre-Chorus) The cracks in that old wooden house we repaired, Every nail, every beam, every story we shared. You taught me the value of working with my hands, Now I see the lessons written in the land. (Chorus) I can’t believe how quick it’s gone by, The summers and sunsets that lit up the sky. I took it for granted, the time that we shared, Now I hold on tight, "cause I know you cared. Down that ol" dirt road, your memory remains, In the creak of the wood and the patter of rain. (Verse 2) Countless hours spent learning at your feet, Your wisdom, your laughter, they’ll always repeat. From fixing that truck to planting the seeds, You showed me what love looks like in deeds. (Pre-Chorus) The lines on your face, like the rings of a tree, Hold the stories of a life that built family. Now as time slips through like sand in my hands, I’m standing here, trying to understand. (Chorus) I can’t believe how quick it’s gone by, The summers and sunsets that lit up the sky. I took it for granted, the time that we shared, Now I hold on tight, "cause I know you cared. Down that ol" dirt road, your memory remains, In the creak of the wood and the patter of rain. (Bridge) Now the seasons are changing, the leaves start to fall, But the lessons you taught me still stand tall. In the wind, I hear your voice callin’ me back, To the dirt road where love fills the cracks. (Final Chorus) I can’t believe how quick it’s gone by, The moments we shared still light up my sky. I won’t take for granted the time that we had, Even though it’s bittersweet, and it hurts so bad. Down that ol" dirt road, you’ll always remain, In the heart of the house and the drops of the rain. (Outro) So I’ll walk that dirt road, with memories in tow, In the echoes of the past, your love will still grow.

Echoes of a Brave Heart-cameron.nibbelink-AI-singing
Echoes of a Brave Heart

(Verse 1) I remember summer nights, the stars lit up the sky, My uncle told those stories, with a twinkle in his eye. From the dusty roads of Iraq, to the mountains up in "Stan, He wore his pride like armor, every battle, every plan. (Chorus) But the echoes of a brave heart, fade in the silent night, He fought for love and freedom, then lost the will to fight. With every tear I whisper, I hope he"ll find some peace, In the memories of his laughter, may his pain forever cease. (Verse 2) He came back home one evening, fresh in his olive drab, The scent of diesel lingered, and I hugged my favorite lad. We shared a cold beer on the porch, the crickets played our song, But the shadows whispered secrets, where the deep scars belong. (Chorus) Oh, the echoes of a brave heart, fade in the silent night, He fought for love and freedom, then lost the will to fight. With every tear I whisper, I hope he"ll find some peace, In the memories of his laughter, may his pain forever cease. (Verse 3) The phone rang one dark morning, a silence filled the room, My heart dropped like a stone, swallowed by the gloom. He was just a call away, but the distance felt so far, I wish I could have saved him, from the battles in his heart. (Chorus) But the echoes of a brave heart, fade in the silent night, He fought for love and freedom, then lost the will to fight. With every tear I whisper, I hope he"ll find some peace, In the memories of his laughter, may his pain forever cease. (Bridge) Now I stand by his old truck, where the grass has grown so tall, I feel him in the breeze, hear him laughing through it all. I"ll carry on his stories, let his spirit guide my way, In the love we shared together, he"ll forever be my stay. (Chorus) Still the echoes of a brave heart, fade in the silent night, He fought for love and freedom, then lost the will to fight. With every tear I whisper, I hope he"ll find some peace, In the memories of his laughter, may his pain forever cease. (Outro) So here"s to all the warriors, who carry what they bear, May we hold them close in kindness, and show them that we care. In the heart of every soldier, there"s a story left to tell, And through love, we"ll keep on fighting, in this world we know so well.

bought and sold-bjmorris530-AI-singing
bought and sold

**"Bought and Sold (The Grammy Song)"** *(A Country Anthem for the Real Ones)* *(Verse 1)* Well, I heard it on the radio, saw it on the screen, Another shiny face with a golden dream. They said, "It’s all about the art, it’s all about the sound," But I’ve been ‘round long enough to know how it goes down. You can buy your way in, if you’ve got the cash, Pay your dues to the system, watch your name turn to ash. It’s a game for the rich, and a joke for the rest, While the real ones out here are just doin’ their best. *(Chorus)* It’s a bought and sold world, a rigged little game, Where the rich get the trophies and the poor get the blame. They’ll sell you a Grammy, if you’ve got the price, But it don’t mean nothin’ when the soul’s on ice. So keep your golden statue, your hollow acclaim, I’ll be out here singin’ for the ones who know my name. It’s a bought and sold world, and it’s all just a show, While the real music’s playin’ where the wild winds blow. *(Verse 2)* I’ve seen the legends passed over, time and again, For some flash in the pan with a marketing plan. They’ll trade their integrity for a spot on the stage, While the heart of the music fades with age. They’ll tell you it’s merit, but we all know the deal, It’s who you know, not how you feel. So I’ll keep my guitar and my worn-out boots, ‘Cause I ain’t here to kiss the suits. *(Chorus)* It’s a bought and sold world, a rigged little game, Where the rich get the trophies and the poor get the blame. They’ll sell you a Grammy, if you’ve got the price, But it don’t mean nothin’ when the soul’s on ice. So keep your golden statue, your hollow acclaim, I’ll be out here singin’ for the ones who know my name. It’s a bought and sold world, and it’s all just a show, While the real music’s playin’ where the wild winds blow. *(Bridge)* They can keep their velvet ropes, their champagne and lies, I’ll be out here under the open skies. ‘Cause the heart of a song ain’t in a trophy case, It’s in the sweat and the tears, and the lines on your face. *(Chorus)* It’s a bought and sold world, a rigged little game, Where the rich get the trophies and the poor get the blame. They’ll sell you a Grammy, if you’ve got the price, But it don’t mean nothin’ when the soul’s on ice. So keep your golden statue, your hollow acclaim, I’ll be out here singin’ for the ones who know my name. It’s a bought and sold world, and it’s all just a show, While the real music’s playin’ where the wild winds blow. *(Outro)* So here’s to the dreamers, the ones who stay true, Who sing for the many, not the chosen few. We don’t need no validation, no fancy parade, We’ve got the music, and that’s how it’s made. It’s a bought and sold world… but not for me, I’ll keep my soul free, where it’s meant to be.
