BELOW IN THE COMMENTS IS A PARTIAL LIST OF SONGS I HAVE WRITTEN OVER THE YEARS FOR SHORT SHIRT.
THIS IS FROM A CASSETTE ALBUM SIMPLY NAMED 'KING SHORT SHIRT'.
II WROTE THIS SONG WAY BACK IN THE MID SEVENTIES, BUT I DID NOT LIKE WHAT I HAD WRITTEN THEN; SO I NEVER USED IT UNTIL: ONE DAY I WAS PLAYING SOME SONG FOR GUY YEARWOOD, WHO DROPPED BY MY HOUSE.  HE SAID, 'SHELLY YOU HAVE TO FINISH THIS SONG. THIS IS GOING TO BE A BIG SONG'.  SO i WORKED ON IT AND ADDED IT TO THE ALBUM. IT IS ONE OF 3 SONGS I GAVE TO FRANKIE TO ARRANGE - I ALSO DID NOT LIKE MY ARRANGEMENT OF IT. HOWEVER, FRANKIE VIRTUALLY WROTE THE SAME ARRANGEMENT I HAD.  HE TOLD ME HE WANTED TO DO SOMETHING FRESH FROM THE THINGS HE WAS DOING.  FUNNY, THAT WAS WHAT I WANTED ALSO.   YOU ALWAYS THINK THE GRASS IS GREENER ON THE OTHER SIDE
