Just a Lyric writer
Hi I'm Noel and I write poetry, ballads, and lyrics. The songs here are collaborations I've taken part in. I mostly either only write the lyric or collaborate on the lyric but occasionally I will do a melody too.
If you are interested in using any of the songs here, please feel free to contact me.
I am also looking for songwriters who are interested in my kind of lyrics to collaborate with.
Story behind the song
The Lyric was Kaley's idea as is the Music I just gave it a little directional change
Lyrics
Stormin Joe
Kaley Willow c2001
Joe Cheme (shem A) was a hard man, rugged more than mean,
And the man had a silver tongue that whispered starry dreams.
Had NO respect...for words of love....paid no mind to marriage vows
His looks made women restless, his presence unsettled towns.
Chorus
Stormin Joe was like a hurricane, his path a trail of broken homes,
I knew why when I laid eyes on him, an’ why they called him Stormin Joe.
They had tried to curb his fury with either ring or gun,
He ripped a path of broken hearts, from Farmers Branch to Houston
He never loved beyond the night, nothing tied him down,
Then one day in Alamo, Joe spied....sweet Jenny Brown
Chorus
Stormin Joe was like a hurricane, his path a trail of broken homes,
I knew why when I laid eyes on him, an’ why they called him Stormin Joe.
Bridge
Jenny wasn’t out to trap a man, wouldn’t know where to start,
Yet with her wholesome friendly smile, she put a loop a round Joe’s heart,
Though women still find Joe an attraction, still enchanted by his charm
The only Stormin Joe does now, is when Jenny’s in his arms…..
Chorus
Stormin Joe was like a hurricane, his path a trail of broken homes,
I knew why when I laid eyes on him, an’ why they called him Stormin Joe.
