Liner Notes
Another wonderful lyric from @ajna1960 and the vibe for this song according to the tags was 50s/60s so challenge accepted. Thought a bit of doo-wop rhythm would do the trick. #50s #60s #doowop #folk #antivalentine #love
Lyrics
Oh Baby, Please Tell Me What's Wrong
Words: ajna1960 Music: songwritingzen
Verse 1 An then I came With a longing that I can't control 'Cus you're the one I knew that I wanted all along But you held me away And I can't help but say Oh baby, please tell me what's wrong
Verse 2 I saw you talk To a man that meant nothing to you Or so you said Can't I trust what you say at all Still you hold me away And I can't help but say Oh baby, please tell me what's wrong
Bridge Thingy I have a heart An' it's longing for you Can't accept that we're through Can't be apart I still haven't a clue Am just addicted to you
Solo (verse)
Verse 3 repeat I'm just a man Whose so in love with a girl that is you I can't help But see all the good in your heart Still you tell me to leave And I say as I go Oh baby, please tell me what's wrong

That's interesting. I find the lyric a modern take on a love song, with the lack of self-control, mistrust, double-speak. Not a typical doowop lyric, so singing it in that style makes it new and fresh, maybe satirical? Cool. Thanks!

oooooo wop wop wop - you got up there pretty high Corey. Dont get much more classic than this one! The lyric is well written and structured and was ready for an easy pick up! Nice solo as well!
