Graham - Very nicely done. 
The solo by John at the end brings it to a whole other level and dimension.
I could see a lot of people with their air guitars jamming with this song.

I really liked it.

Wellllll.........hold on there cowboys - you are not alone........

I played soccer for many years
Collegiate level at East Stroudsburg University ( goalie on my team was Bob Rigby- Cover of Sports Illustrated when drafted by Philadelphia Atoms.  The Coach of the Atoms ( AL Miller lived up the street from me - I dated his daughter for 6 years:0))
Played for Pocono Snow FC , Worthy Brothers FC( out of Philly) and the Delaware Wings in old ASL.  Iwas also selected to play on the National HOF Team out of Oneonta NY ( where the Hall of Fame was located at the tiem)

I have coached soccer at high school since 1976
Been to the NYS Championships 3 times.

I am a soccer junkie as well -  My European Team has been Liverpool.
I got to meet Ian Rush and Robbie Fowler in person last summer.
Beckenbauer - der Kaiser was always one of my favorites.   
I was at Meadowlands Stadium ( in 1977 or 78 ) when he , Pele, Chianalia, George Best and so many other great players all played for NY Cosmos - crowd that day was over 78,000.

My Father - played for the Kearney ( NJ) Scots)  for $ 38 a game - my mom told me it was more than he made in a week at his plant ( early 1940's)

It still continues - as today, I was coaching 22 girls ( high school soccer) -- my 35th year at my school - and I still love every second of it.

Sooooooo   TF and Bill - you are not alone

Wrong Paul !!!

New and the Song On my way to Work are Paul McCartney's = not Paul Simon's .

It is a good song, nice easy listening music - weird lyrics though, I  thought.

Another excellent lyric and arrangement.  It sounded quite " Beatle"ish to me, which is always a sign of excellent music.
Sentiment of the is well established, and the delivered performance was top notch !

Keep'em coming my friend, a pleasure to listen to.

You really need to connect to a music producer - you have a lot of "Texas sized talent " !

Jim

Thanks all,  for your comments.
I made some changes - thanks Bill !!

The writing comes relatively easy for me - the playing and singing - well that's a whole other ballgame.
As for the Dentist - apparently the hunter has now become the hunted -- poetic justice.

I wanted to put in a line some where about the defining silence of his roar - but just couldn't find the right line.

  I love the forum on chordie..... so much fun and sooooooo many good people  !

Easy beat -  you write nicely - what a Raquet you got going!

Phill - your comment - made me think AC/DC --- we've got the biggest balls of all !

Mojo

I do it all the time - i use the notepad on my phone usually to record thoughts that pop in my head --- it seems the easiest for me.

I usually have two or three going - then I forget about them for a while and when searching for something on my computer - they will invariably pop up and I'll go 
" hmmm, oh yeah.... I remember that "   

another scenario for me is a lyric that i have worked on - but can't find the right chord progression - I get mad -   put it away forget about for a year or so :0 )     

I woke up the other night had a great verse and chord progression in my head.... sat on edge of bed - went over it a couple of times...was gonna go downstairs and write it down..... but then said to my self - eh - I 'll do it when i get up - went back to sleep .  You know the outcome probably already -   woke up   "Craft syndrome"  set in ( .... can't remember a freaking thing)  !

I have no idea of words or lyrics - just remember that I had a good one !

Tim McGraw played a song at the CMA's a couple ( maybe more)  years ago... he brought vets and children of fallen soldiers on stage at end.  I was leaking like a broken dam.  I forget the song, but sure wish I had it. If anyone knows what song it was let me know.

I'm an old sentimental anyway.....  I also coach three varsity sports - and I agree with Amy - everytime I hear the National Anthem it gives me chills.

Lastly - one of my favorite instrumentals was Mason Williams - Classical Gas   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mREi_Bb85Sk
