Liner Notes

#girlwithguitar #acousticonetake

Wasn't planning to do a skirmish today, but when I saw the prompt, the song just started coming. This one goes out to everyone whose team isn't in the Superbowl this time around. But next year, just you wait....

Lyrics

Well it’s Superbowl time once again Americans gather with family and friends To root for a team, that isn’t their own Because earlier in the season they got sent back home

Statistically it’s true across the land Most of the viewing audience is bandwagon fans I’m rooting for a team cuz mine was left in the cold I’m talking of course about the Green and Gold

We’ll get ‘em next year So we always say We’ll get ‘em next year Our favorite coping game to play Root for the Seahawks, root for the Pats One of them will win, that’s enough of that Meanwhile, we’ll pour our sorrows in a bucket of beers We’ll get ‘em next year

I must say I’m happy for Darnold And the Patriots must be elated It stands to reason because in previous seasons I heard they were a little deflated But my heart is still back there at Lambeau Watching them jump up the wall Can’t wait for next year When we definitely will win it all

We’ll get ‘em next year So goes the old refrain We’ll get ‘em next year After several months to numb the pain I’ll cheer for the bird team, look at them play Eat some lasagna and call it a day Season the meal with the salt of my tears We’ll get ‘em next year

(Go Pack Go)

ok, attached below is literally the last thing i saw in slack before coming here to hit the reciprocate shuffle button, and was served this song. if i didn’t actually implement the algorithm, i’d be paranoid...

as far as the song itself goes: as with almost all of your music, always fun, always a pleasure, and always the truth!

* footnote: super bowl XLV was a conflicted year because it was packers vs steelers, and even though i don’t follow football those were the only two teams i felt like i “could” claim. so i couldn’t lose! (or win!) 😅

Go Hawks! I do get root my own team this year. This is a fun and timely song 🎶

Damn skippy!!! I love the optimism 💚💛🏈

Your voice is so lovely. Effortless. Great lyrics. You make these comedy songs look easy. Being from England I know very little about American Football but we’d never cheer on another team here, unless it is a genuine underdog. It’s nice that you do though. ☺️

Fav line is "talking of course is the green and gold." For our fam it's the Steelers. My husband's favorite line is that he bleeds black and gold. Your rhythm and delivery is impeccable. Love this song!

For me, it's a weird feeling as a Seattle native when in WI...but at least time we didn't play the packers in the playoffs this time around. Still...kinda glad you can find a way to root for the bird team. Fun and light song!

Oh my goodness! I am a fan!!! You scored a touchdown and kicked this up a notch right through center of the goal post! This is such a wonderfully fun and creative ode to the Packers! I am not a football fan at all but I am a true green and gold Packer fan! Your music is fantastic, love the upbeat fun delivery. You capture the heart of a Packer fan well. See you at the Super Bowl next year!

As a football fan, I freaking love this... felt really sad about the Giants losing so much, but hey, it is what it is... We'll get 'em next year, I guess! As always, love your vocal delivery!
