Song Quote of the Day
This is a new song that I'm going to do for you now. Actually, it's not really new, but as a song, as a total thing, it's new. Part of it was written over four years ago - part of it was written two years ago and part of it was written two weeks ago. It just kind of falls in together. It takes in about four years. It's called Country Girl.
I've written three songs now that go together - this one here is the third of three of three. The first one was Broken Arrow. The second one was Down By The River and this is the third one. I don't know if there'll be another one or not.
You may think that this sounds a little like Broken Arrow - you're right. That's because I wrote this part of it before I wrote Broken Arrow. This is where Broken arrow came from. In other words - at the time, Broken Arrow seemed better than this and now it seems the other way around, as time changes - even though four years ago it wasn't.
