My Last Girlfriend Was An Outlaw

(Brian Hendrix)

I've written a lot of western-themed songs, but this is probably the one I had the most fun with. It basically just tells the story, from a man's perspective, about how his girlfriend was an outlaw and robbed banks and shot people. I had a lot of fun with this, a fast-paced country-western song that would probably sound great on radio.

My pretty baby calls money cheddar
And said that she was craving cheese
Deferred to her, babe, you know better
I'll be right here, just get home free
She loaded up her Smith & Wesson
Grabbed her disguise, jumped on her horse
One day they'll ask me if I knew her
I'll say no, but I do of course 

(Chorus)
My last girlfriend was an outlaw
Robbin' trains and fools and banks
Hung her hat in some old stage coach
That sat abandoned on the tracks
'Til one day those Marshals showed up
Shot her 10 times in the back 
Yeah, my last girlfriend was an outlaw
Now she's dead, and, well, that's that

Met her at the bank of Hancock Whitney 
1901 down in Mississipp'
Waving a gun in some rich man's face
And with her finger shooshed my lips
She winked and smiled and called me "cowboy"
Then ran out shootin' at the air 
I tracked her down there three towns over
Told her "A shame to hide such pretty hair" 

(Chorus) 

And when there's no one left to mourn her
Who will tell her history 
Like the time she faced a posse down
And killed the whole damn crew but three
Like when she looted Amarillo 
The whole town for a bag of gold
Or how she knew the bandit Jesse 
'Least his story has been told 

(Chorus)

Flowers On Your Grave

By Brian Hendrix

This one just poured out of me like it was a memory. There was no inspiration for it. I didn't have anything in mind. It's like I started writing on auto-pilot and this came out. I was amazed when it was finished. Easily one of the best songs I've ever written. It has a very powerful message and describes love in myriad ways. The love of family, of a lover, and speaks about love as an eternal concept, not just a physical thing. I'm proud that I wrote this.

She Loves Me Back

By Brian Hendrix

More of an upbeat, happy song, although it does have some slightly painful undertones. It's about a guy whose previous relationships have all failed, and that sort of made him jaded to the idea of love, but he's happy that he's finally found a girl who loves him back! I think this song does a pretty good job at telling a story a lot of us have been through.

Here to Hold

By Brian Hendrix

This is about a man who doesn't necessarily fancy himself as a religious person, but when his wife leaves him, he doesn't know what else to do so he goes into a church and prays for her return. The picture I was trying to get across here was a man kneeling in front of lit candles at the altar and begging God to help him. It reminds me of something Johnny Paycheck might have done. I've written hundreds of songs, but I think verse 2 of this one might be among the best I've written. It's also meant to be really sang; it's not a soft, melodic-toned song at all.

Purple Rose

By Brian Hendrix

Whatever sort of entity out there that visits me with songwriting inspiration lives in the 1960s, I'm sure of it. This song is about as classic country Americana as you're going to get. Though it's in no way derivative, in my opinion. I think it's a very unique and original take on a topic that's been written about plenty of times.

The Fata Morgana

By Georg Wagner (GeWa)

I think, there´s a river, a sea of a lake. It´s a Fata Morgana, only a fake. What´s wrong and what´s right? What´s real, what´s illusion? I don´t know. What remains, that is confusion.

Let me in

By Weronika Gwiazda

A song about unrequited love, loving a person who is reserved and cold. Song consists of many methaphors. I think of it as of a rock song, but could also be a pop song. The form is verse - pre-chorus - chorus - verse - pre-chorus - chorus.
