A song about an American Idol wannabe

I was a member of NSAI and went to Nashville several times for training camps. I was a fiction/non-fiction writer before I became a songwriter.
Sheila Dixon began writing songs approximately 12 years ago. She brought a poem to an Orlando “Nashville Songwriter’s Association International" meeting to start out. She met SusieCool (Susan Foster Trewick) there and they co-wrote “We Belong Together Through All Time". Over the years they co-wrote another 17 plus songs. Those are available on Soundclick as "The Healing Band". Besides writing with SusieCool, Sheila worked with another NSAI member Stephen Desjardins. They wrote “My First Love" which they had produced by the Beaird Group in Nashville.

Lyrics
Karaoke at the OK Corral (c) 2009 Sheila Dixon/Susan Foster-Trewick Am D The night is full tilt at the OK Corral G G7 Pulsing lights and throbbing music all around Am D He sat beside me, asked my name G G7 I’m Ruth Grabowski, and I’ve known fame C D Am D Just exactly what do you do? I told him, man, I sing a few. G Am D G Karaoke at the OK Corral, Will you sing there, can I be your pal? G Am D Karaoke singing with the song, Grab the microphone and sing along Am D G G7 I sing the songs on the karaoke, And my friends tell me I’m A - OK Am D G G7 The crowd goes wild when I appear, "You should be on American Idol", they cheer C D Am D "Something to Talk About" I sing, One by one they come to do their thing (chorus) Am D G G7 The guy beside me is a talent scout, Maybe he can help me OUT Am D G G7 I'll get a manager and a band, We'll tour all over this great great land C D Am D Anyway, that's my true dream, I'm so anxious I could scream Em Am D (bridge) I plan to make it to the top on that TV show Em Am D Watch out judges, it's you I must know (chorus)
