songwriting challenge — week 4

My thinking for this challenge was that if I could find a good “edgy, country” riff, then I could put together an “edgy, country” song.  This is what I wrote.

Lyrics:

DANGEROUS GIRL

i woke up in last night’s clothes
we had a good time & it shows
i never made a promise i couldn’t keep
some may look but i would rather leap

she’s a game-changer, a real danger
no way you will stay strangers
she’s got you curious
this…this girl is dangerous

i might make another mistake
drive myself so crazy, what does it take?
but you are the real thing & i’m so tired of fakes

she’s a powder keg, she won’t make you beg
but you say goddamn when she cross her legs
she’s got me curious
this…this girl is dangerous

she’s a long glance, she’s a second chance
she’s on the floor & she wants to dance
she’s a powder keg, she won’t make you beg
but you’ll say goddamn when she crosses her legs
she’s a game-changer, a real danger
there’s no way you will stay strangers
she’s got you curious
this…this girl is dangerous
