A Lot Like Me
One of those choruses I've had written for a while. Digging through old song files, looking for inspiration, figured I'd finish it. So I wrote three verses and a bridge for it, kept the chorus as-is and built around it. Basically about two firebrand lovers who are compatible in the best--and worst--ways. I like it. I think it's clever in places, catchy in others, and strong melodically.

V1
They say opposites attract
But I don't know too much 'bout that
Me and my girl, sometimes just can't tell us apart
If there's one thing I know's a fact
She'll stand right with me back to back
And we'll finish together anything that starts
(Chorus)
My baby is a rolling stone
As dangerous as a loaded gun
But she's alright to hold at night
As long as you keep the safety on
My girl's a little wild and free
Though tame enough just where it counts
She'll come in cool as the breeze
And sometimes storm on her way out
My baby is a lot like me...
V2
She'll drink with me shot for shot
She'll throw her hands if she gets hot
Leave the brush at home, light the town in fiery red
Then walk barefoot, embers and ash
Ignores the whole world, lets it pass
'Cause this world is ours, out there and in our heads
(Chorus)
(Bridge)
Sometimes get wrapped up in each other
Butt heads and stoke those coals
But it just forges stronger steel
And heats us up when life gets cold
My baby...
V3
Starts a fight about the fight
That we just fought last night
And I'll give it back, and we'll go 'round and 'round
Maybe I'll laugh, maybe she'll smile
And we'll cool down after a while
And then heat it up and go lay our love down
(Chorus)
