Everything's Alright

I was driving hard and I was paying dues
I didn't have a whole lot to lose
Then you came along
Turned my whole world around
I was living in the streets, staying on the run
Living in restaurants wasn't any fun
Then you came along
Fed me a home-cooked meal
Now I'm staying at home every night
We're sitting by the fire
Everything's Alright

I was drinking like a fish, out of control
My morale at an all-time low
Then you came along
Led me away from the bar
Now I'm satisfied with my life
We're laying in our bed
Everything's Alright

Everything's honky-dory
There's no end to our love story

This is a "reality" love song. Needless to say, I like it. The line I like because it's so real is:

I was living in the streets, staying on the run
Living in restaurants wasn't any fun

This is great, couldn't agree more with Frankie.

Thanks guys!

You're welcome, Jim. You are such a prolific writer, sometimes I think others may be intimidated by your expertise.
But I don't scare easily. And I figure speaking truth, I can't go wrong, as long as I'm not doing it toward someone's detriment!

Keep on with all your writing. You know I like your prose also.

Everything's hunky-dory
There's no end to our love story!
Jimbo,this is a cool verse that needs some praise;CLAP,CLAP,CLAP!There,I came up with a new way to say,"I like it!"

I appreciate it, Doug.
