Dirt Road Romance

Uploaded .

The August 2023 30 Day Songs prompt came from a list of ChatGPT country song names a friend posted to Facebook. I started off trying to make fun of the genre and instead wrote a song I think I sorta like. Rumor is there’s a second mix floating around with full Nashville autotune nd high-end hype present, but that’s just a rumor.

Thinking about our small town
She catches your eye whenever she’s around
It’s been this way as long as you can remember
But things feel different this September

You’ve known each other forever and a day
You think back to how as kids you’d play
But something seems different these days
So many things to tell her, you’ve got to find a way

It’s a dirt road romance, made for you and her
Find a way to say all the things you want to say
She smiles at you so sweetly, it’s time to take a chance
On a dirt road romance tonight
A dirt road romance tonight

You see her face when you close your eyes
And dream of her each and every night
For the longest time you wondered if she knew
And if she ever thought about you

But now you see her, it feel like things have changed
She’s looking right back at you, but in a different way
There seems to be a sparkle in her eye
And you hope beyond hope that you’re the reason why

It’s a dirt road romance, made for you and her
And when she looks at you you hope today’s the day
She smiles at you so sweetly, it’s time to take a chance
On a dirt road romance tonight
A dirt road romance tonight

Long country nights by the light of the moon
Hoping your chance is coming soon
You turn around and she’s standing right there
And your moment is finally here

It’s a dirt road romance, made for you and her
She turns to you and says “today’s the day”
She smiles at you so sweetly, your time has come at last
For a dirt road romance tonight
A dirt road romance tonight

Cool tune Tim. It has a nice Endless Summer vibe to it. Your production is really, really good!
