Beaver Creek

Beaver Creek, Beaver Creek.
Oh, I loved growin up in Beaver Creek.
I miss, wadin, splashin, playin,
down on Beaver Creek.
Only thing I don't miss,
was gittin all those stickers in my feet.
On Beaver Creek.

Well, my best friend Tommy, was my best friend.
We still talk on the phone every now and then.
We reminess about our days in Beaver Creek.
We both agree, we don't miss,
gittin all those stickers in our feet.
On Beaver Creek.

I attended Beaver Creek High School.
When I was there, I had a ball.
But, about the only class I ever passed was study hall.
I liked a girl named Sally Allie.
She was voted ugliest girl in school.
But, I thought Sally Allie was kinda cool.
I used to sneak love notes into her locker.
I was about the only boy in school who didn't knock her.
Now she's a super modle. She is lookin fine.
And all the guys from school are jellous:
Cause, she married me, and now she's mine all mine.

Beaver Creek, Beaver Creek.
Oh, I miss growin up in Beaver Creek.
I miss wadin, splashin, playin, down on Beaver Creek.
Only thing I don't miss,
was gittin all those stickers in my feet.
On Beaver Creek.

I talked with Tommy on the phone again today.
He told me that his Daddy passed away.
He was cryin when he told me.
And, now his mamma is alone.
Lord, it's hard to give a friend a hug
on the telephone.

Beaver Creek! Beaver Creek!
Oh, I miss my friend, and growin up in Beaver Creek.
I miss bonfires, hayrack rides, old pick-up trucks.
I miss, Tippin cows, kissin gals then tellin pals,
and Sunday pick-nicks after Church.
I miss wadin, splashin, playin, down on Beaver Creek.
And I guess, I'll confess, sometimes I even miss,
gittin all those stickers in my feet.
On Beaver Creek, Beaver Creek, Beaver Creek... fade

These lyrics are really cute, and lol I know what its like to get the stickers in my feet. They are so annoying!! Lmao, this is a good song you got here Wayne .

Btw what genre would this be in? :0

Hi Shadow,
Thank you very much. I'm glad you liked it. This is about me and my best friend Tommy. Most of it is true. Tommy died two years ago and I wanted to have something kinda special to remember him by, so I wrote this song and another one titled "Me And My Best Friend". I actually have a hard time singing this one without crying. That big lump in the throat hurts worse if you are trying to sing. I think it is going to be Country, or something close to it.

Thanks again.

Awh, I'm sorry to hear that


And hai there x')

Thanks Wayne, yur awesome x) I hope you make more lyrics, please? Hehe

I can sympathize with the loss of your friend, Wayne. My buddy, Austin, who I'd known for most of my life died of pain-pill overdose a couple years back and I'm still not completely over it. I wrote a lyric for him as well: http://www.allthelyrics.com/forum/ly...end-again.html. I can't remember the last time I cried about it, but I almost want to now... I won't yet, though, 'cause I still wanna finish this post.

Your lyric has a very Southern sound to it, which would make it great for a country song. The way you reminisce about about your childhood makes me think that you grew up much like I did, even though the times and the area were quite different, I don't think we were too different as children. I really wish I could say more, but I don't know what else to say, other than: I really do like this, and I hope you keep writing.

R.I.P. Austin Jones... R.I.P. Tommy

Take care, OneSongWayne

You don't have to say anything else. I can feel your heart.

Thanks SljSlj.

Wayne I feel for your loss. As a citizen of England Im not sure what stickers on the feet are though, could you explain this to me?


I read the lyrics and instantly got the feel of a bluegrass or country song as it goes too pal

Thank you very much.
Stickers are about the size of a pea. They grow in mostly sandy areas close to water. But can grow just about anywhere. They have little sharp pointed prongs that stick into your skin when you step on one. They are very painfull.

You can see a picture of one species here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tribulus_terrestris

I think this song would be a cross between bluegrass and country.
Might even be a little Pop Country?

Even though it is a tribute to Tommy and our life long friendship, I still wanted the song to have some good entertainment quality. I hope I've managed to accomplish both without one taking away from the other.

Thank you for your interest. I would love to visit England and Ireland some day.

Take care,
Wayne

Great lyrics. I like a chorus flow and melody of it.
