Song title/ '' Hickies & Scratches''
_____________________________
Verse 1:
______
Boy you came home  last night,smelling like cheap perfume
When I ask you where you had been, you went to bed without saying a word
I'm no fool something ain't right with you,
I know that you been fooling around on me


Chorus:
______
The hickies on your neck and the scratches on your back
Baby they didn't come from me
You been working over time twenty four seven
Loving on someone else instead of loving on me


Verse 2:
______
When I washed your clothes, found lipstick on the shirt you worn
Don’t think for a second that I don't know what's going on
You know I love you so much,that's why I haven’t walked out the door
Cause when you love somebody sometimes It’s hard to let go


Chorus:
______


Verse 3:
______
When we got together you didn't have a penny to your name
I took you in Baby underneath my wing
Kept money in your pocket bought you brand new things
And this is the way you repay me for everything


Chorus:
______
The hickies on your neck and the scratches on your back
Baby they didn't come from me
You been working over time twenty four seven
Loving on someone else instead of loving on me

Bridge Chorus:
____________
You don’t miss your water,until your well run dry
I've seen this happen,so many times in my life
When you do somebody wrong, who done right by you
Ain’t nothing good in life, Is gonna to come to you

Dennis .
when you write do you sing the words to yourself ? if you do then the melody in your head fits the words . i think it is what we all do even those who play an instument . that said  when someone else reads them they/we have to find our own melody sometimes it is really easy others not. this a not lyric for me . the rhymes don't match ( they don't have to ) and the lines are different lengths so it effects the flow . can see the story but can't sing along to it  PO

Dear Mr. Morrison, there are 4 lines to each verse. including chorus. Yes, sir I do sometimes write with a melody in my head.
Sometimes there are song lyrics that I to don't understand-rock is one of them. Just can't seem to get into it. thanks for complimenting. Dennis

Hi Dennis,

I hope you are doing well. I love the title to this song. Obviously it is written for a female to sing. My only nit would be the rhyme scheme and word count. But those can be trimmed and tucked as they are put to song. So stuff like that really isn't a selling point or not for a song. I'm more interested in a good hook and title. I think that is the first thing that catches someone's eye. And hey, who wouldn't notice a song titled "Hickies And Scratches"? I know I did. Best wishes!

Thank you my friend for your feed back. I'm doing fine. Hope you are too. I really appreciate your feed back/ comment(s). I was looking back over this song earlier today. I was planning on revising it today-but I got a little busy. Again thanks for your comments, etc. God bless! Dennis

If this were to appy to me and my woman, the chorus would have been about my death / murder . Hickies and scratches would have ben the least of my worries. Bullet holes and stab wounds would be my problems.

Dan, You is a mess! Lol...When I read this I couldn't help but to laugh. My friend you are hilarious. But I have to agree with you.
This probably would have been the same thing I would have been thinking about. Dennis
