an old roommate and i were attempting to write ultimate heartbreak country songs -- hers was titled, "I Won't Get Over You Until You Get Out From Under Him" -- mine was, "I Cried All the Way to The Chair, as She Smiled All the Way Down the Aisle" (of course the dude was framed for a murder by his sweetheart and his best friend, who she is now marrying)

Thanks Doc, will dive into Ray Price next.

1960s underground music.

I think between coel and the many other musicians on here that we can get that recorded, slugluv. Please say that you still have the lyrics!
  8:52pm
Ostrichizer:

A song written to a singer songwriter including these lyrics, "They tell me your bisexual but technically still a virgin
Sounds to me your head's in your ass with your heart a hurtin"
A got a relationship out of it!

DocHollidey:

Slug, that's a perfectly named country song.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:54pm
coelacanth∅:

so while i was in the kitchen "crazy arms" came into my head. figured it was because i was talking an hour or 2 ago about a bootleg i got when i was a teenager, which had that song on it
then come back in here and it was mentioned here.
was there a song that sounded like it that i sort of heard?
Avatar 8:54pm
slugluv1313:

*blushing* thank you again!
i probably still have the working lyrics stored *somewhere* -- this was in the 90s!
