The Charms
« on: »
I talk a lot about recording what Suno did .So here's one I did record .
I've been married a lot of times , so wrote the bad luck. Then finally the good luck.
It's a A/A/A/B/A song . No Chorus.






First one wore a silver cross
Said it kept the devil off my back
Kissed me slow before a show
Said, “Baby, you ain’t that bad”
She’d flick that lighter in the dark
Like she could spark my fate
I swore her touch was rabbit’s foot luck
Every time I hit that stage
Thought she was my lucky charm
Till luck ran dry and she did too
Verse 2
Second one had emerald eyes
Said green meant money and grace
Laid her head against my heart
Like she owned that place
Kept a horseshoe over the door
Said, “Bad winds won’t blow through here”
But storms don’t knock, they kick things in
Then disappear
Yeah I called her my four-leaf clover
She folded when the cards turned cold
Verse 3
Third one laughed at superstition
Said fate’s just whiskey talk
Burned sage in my old kitchen
Barefoot on the porch at dark
She said, “You don’t need no talisman
You just need someone who’ll stay”
But staying’s harder than believing
In magic anyway
I thought she might be different
But even good ones walk away
Bridge
Turns out luck ain’t love at all
It’s just hope dressed up in perfume
Final Verse
Then you showed up quiet
No silver, no smoke, no signs
No emerald promises
No lucky-number lines
You didn’t hang above the doorway
Didn’t dangle from a chain
You just stood there when the thunder came
And didn’t change
You ain’t a charm I carry
You’re the one who stayed
Yeah all that superstition faded
When you didn’t walk away
You’re the only lucky charm
That ever stayed

Could you do one for me? If not, that's ok, but that was pretty slick!
When you row someone else across the river, you get there yourself

I associate with the lyrics, I've been married 4 times Elvis. Each had their seasons! Most times, it was my stubbornness! Hey, well done. Btw... You've got a vocal that reminds me of a Bob Dylan. That's a compliment in my eyes!

Great we got something in common on the 4 marriages lol. Wives are hobbies I guess . I just talk in the mike and call it singing like Dylan .

You know I paid my guy to make you one . His name looks like Halibut the fish. He's in Bangladesh with George Harrison. He calls me once in awhile . I don't understand a word you're saying lol. He's about 22 and just got married and had to pay a Rubles or dowry to the family . Well bud your married now , Best get an Amazon Account . You're going to need it . I want to come to America . Oh no you don't , it aint Disneyland
