About Me

SOMETIMES I WONDER HOW I EVER ENDED UP IN NASHVILLE TENNESSEE .............HOW A FORMER CALIFORNIA 1980'S COVER BAND DIVA LANDED A RECORD DEAL AND THEN A WRITING DEAL IN THE DEEP SOUTH.....WELL, IT'S ALL KIND OF A BLUR, BUT I HAVE MANAGED TO HAVE A FEW HITS WITH COUNTRY ARTISTS:"SHUT UP AND DRIVE" FOR CHELY WRIGHT "SOMEBODY" FOR REBA MCINTIRE AND MOST RECENTLY "IF YOU'RE GOING THROUGH HELL" FOR RODNEY ATKINS.......................................... THE LATEST IS EMERSON DRIVE'S "MOMENTS" WHICH JUST BECAME OUR 3RD NUMBER ONE. TAKE A LISTEN.THOSE SONGS PAY MY BILLS. BUT.... IF YOU REALLY WANT TO KNOW ME, LISTEN TO MY SONGS.......SAMPLE A COUPLE ON THIS PAGE.... I COULDA BEEN A DOCTOR, BUT I COULDN'T STAND THE PAIN I COULDA BEEN A LAWYER BUT I'M NOT GOOD AT THAT GAME I'M THE ONE WHO ROCKED THE BOAT AND SOWED THE OATS AND DANCED UNTIL THE DAWN SWINGIN' FROM THE STARS I WISHED UPON YEAH, I'M THE ONELayout made by nothing_plus_this at CreateBlog.com .
