This upbeat song is really written for a female voice with some bite to it with a bit of twang. I'm neither...on this simple recording. Reached #93 in the Country-Pop Charts.

NOTE: I've added some piano "instrumental only" songs on my music page. They are labeled as Piano in the title. Most are located towards the bottom of the page. Hi everyone! I'm a 49 year old part-time musician/songwriter with several years of various experiences. My ultimate goal is to have some songs published and recorded. All recordings of the songs were recorded with a simple cassette tape recorder. I'll try to keep the "News" section updated as things develop.

Story behind the song
This is my second song written exclusively on the guitar. While I have decades of experience playing keyboards, my 6 months of guitar playing allows me to express my music in another way. The song/story is not related to a real life situation. It just is about a woman scorned and who is strong enough to take it without a real grudge knowing there is justice in the end.
Lyrics
I'm The Hurtin' One Words and Music by David Derbes, copyright 2006, daderbes@yahoo.com Well, I ain't gonna ever forget you. Especially how you left me here this way. It's not like I can hate or despise you, but I'm the hurtin' one here today. You lead me on and then you desert me. And this is what I get for lovin' you. So I'm just gonna put this behind me, and chalk it up to learnin' something new. Chorus Well, I'm too strong, to hold a grudge against you. And you're too dumb (numb) to even have a clue. But let's be real, it hasn't been a great day as I'm the hurtin' one here today. While others may just give you the finger, I'd like to think I'm better than the rest. Your acting like jerk makes me wonder, but you've just gone and passed the test. Chorus I hear you're seeing some other girlfriend. They say she's got a mean and nasty streak. I recommend a change how your dating. (how could be in) Cause otherwise your future's looking bleak.
