Two Guys, Two Guitars, one mike. A quick reference track so we'd remember how it went.

It's just me- Robbie Porter. I write songs, I record rough-as-a-cob demos, and then I foist them off on others. I just want to write these days. I like it, and I'm learning what I can and can't do musically. (It's not like I have a choice, really..40 year olds with questionable pitch and sanity are not exactly hot property in the Biz.)

Story behind the song
The radio was'nt playing anything I liked, so I started humming to myself in my car. I came up with the phrase "bridges are burnin' all over town" and built a story line around that. My friend Ron Rhoads helped me clean up the arrangment and added some good lyrics in the chorus.
Lyrics
Miss genevieve she like her cake and she likes to eat it too/ Half the things she says are lies and the other half ain't true She's got her little errand boys she likes to run around/ but your bridges are burnin all over town Miss genevieve she'll rob ya blind with a twinkle in her eye/ she's got her little fingers in everybody's pie/ she likes to think that she's in charge but her ship is goin' down/ your bridges are burnin all over town CHORUS You're gonna miss me miss genevieve when I walk away/ I'm tired of just standin' here when you get your way/ a path of destruction follows you around/ teardrops and ashes are fallin' to the ground (revised from recording) I won't be around when the fires die down/ Your bridges are burnin' all over town instr chorus x2
