Story behind the song
I decided to try my hand at writing a commercial country song. These are rough draft work tracks so please look past the "pitchy vocals"
Lyrics
“What The Other Boys Do” copyright 2004
I don’t do what the other boys do no more
Stay out drinking, trying to score
There’s a big sign hanging on my front door
Says, if you’re looking for me I’m through
Doing what the other boys do
Hey baby what’s on TV tonight
That dinner you made you made just right
You pour the wine and I’ll dim the lights
We’ll see where the evening goes
I never was a lover till I found you
Now I’m doing these things that I would never do
Opened my eyes to what is really true
I guess that’s just the way love grows
Everybody thinks I’m crazy
They say that love has made me blind
‘cause I don’t do what the other boys do no more
Stay out drinking, trying to score
There’s a big sign hanging on my front door
Says if you’re looking for me I’m through
Doing what the other boys do
Well once I was a pretty wild sight
Out in the honky-tonk every night
Well a long neck Lone Star looking for a fight
With nothing to win or lose
Wild red hair and them big green eyes
Stole my heart and I was hypnotized
Two times the fun of hanging with the guys
Sometimes you must just choose
I hear the laughter out on the street
I know my friends are looking for me
They’re trying to save me from this fate
Hey Boys, You’re just a little too late
‘Cause I don’t do what the other boys do no more
Stay out drinking, trying to score
There’s a big sign hanging on my old front door
Says, if you’re looking for me I’m through
Well I Wouldn’t if I wanted to
If you’re looking for me I’m through
Doing what the other boys do
What the other boys do…etc
