co-written by Jeff Knight / Susan Jarrell * Traditional Country Male Demo * Target: George Strait
I am just a songwriter/musician/singer/producer who writes a few songs every now and then. I have since retired from road work and mostly do studio recordings and I have my own home demo studio which you hear music created in it from time to time. I will post some demos of my own and maybe some demos of co-writes or co-producing. It's just what I feel like posting at the time. Thanks for stopping by! ;-)

v1
I was workin downtown doing auto repair.
When all I could see, was heels tip toe’n everywhere.
she said mister. can you help me please?,
think somethings broke, can you fix it for me?
Well I slid myself from under that Buick’s rear end
then I said, all my life where have you been?
lift
She said her name was Clem, short for Clementine
I said well dadgum girl, won’t you please be mine?
chorus
Oh I’m in love with you, Oh My Clementine
gotta let my heart catch up,
cuz it’s a runnin just a lil behind
I want you and nothing’s gonna change my mind
Now that I’m in love with you, Oh My Clementine
v2
After 3 great years, now we can’t stay apart
every time I look at you, I lose a piece of my heart
I remember your first words to me
mister can you help me please?,
and the feelings start all over again
I can’t deny, it’s just like it was back then
lift
now you want a true love vow that binds
I won’t disappoint you girl, won’t you please be mine?
chorus
Oh I’m still in love with you, Oh My Clementine
gotta let my heart catch up,
cuz it’s a runnin just a lil behind
I still want you and nothing’s changed my mind
I’m still in love with you, Oh My Clementine
bridge
ten years of lovin later … and two sets of twins
this ole boy still can’t wait to love Clementine AGAIN
chorus
Oh I’m still in love with you, Oh My Clementine
gotta let my heart catch up,
cuz it’s a runnin just a lil behind
I still want you and nothing’s changed my mind
I’m still in love with you, Oh My Clementine
tag:
Oh I’m still in love with you, I’m still in love with you
I’m still in love with you ..… Oh My Clementine :)
