For Fun: Duet for Kellie & Bucky!!

[Busygemini]

Hey Gang,

First off, thanks to Jessica for my new avi!! Hopefully by the time I post this, she'll have figured out my banner too!

Anyhoo, not looking for help in DOING anything with this one....it just sorta came up in some PM's, so thought yall might get a kick out of it. It was a song (lyrics only) I wrote way back when, mid-AI Season Five tour when Kellie and Bucky were having so much fun together (and it appears they still do, soooooo). At the time, everyone was speculatin' about a romance between 'em, but they did a great job telling everyone they were "Just Friends". So without further ado, here's the lyric:


Just Friends
(Duet for Bucky Covington & Kellie Pickler)
© Lyrics Beth Williams 2007

Kellie: Was tired of getting my heart broken.
Another blind date? Gal, you must be jokin’!
The last one left me out in the rain soakin
But just in case, I went and he was smokin’!

Bucky: My friends told me I had to get a move-on
I needed a new gal to get my groove-on
We’ve got someone for you, so put your shoes on,
I went and met the cutest girl in Tucson.

Kellie: We knew right from the start we were destined to meet
Bucky: We held each other’s hands as we walked out to the street
B & K: The only thing to seal the deal was to share that special kiss….
But in that so-called moment, we found something was a-miss…

Bucky: We had no CHEMistry! What should we do?
Already were we history before Date Number Two?
Some say that this relationship must now come to an end?
I know it sounds impossible but wanna be Just Friends?

Kellie: Just Friends – I’ll say have fun, go, stay out late!
Bucky: Just Friends – forget the diet, have some cake!
Kellie: Just Friends – don’t care about those apron strings.
Bucky: Just Friends – don’t worry ‘bout you pesterin’ me to shop for diamond rings!

Kellie: We knew that they would laugh at us and sadly shake their heads
Why waste your time if you can’t get into each others' bed?
We used to think that way, too, but not anymore
Because platonic love has come a-knockin at our door.

Bucky: Just Friends –Your date will love you in that sweater
Kellie: Just Friends – I’d like to know your brother better
Kellie: Just Friends – don’t shave or need to put on make-up
Bucky: Just Friends – Most importantly don’t have to worry ‘bout a break-up…

Kellie: We had no CHEMistry! What should we do?
Already were we history before Date Number Two…
Some say that this relationship must now come to an end.
I know it sounds impossible but wanna be just friends?

B&K: So far so good we hope to keep this “just friendship” thing goin’
Let others know while love may fade a friendship just keeps growing
But if the time arrives if we think it no longer works,
We’re gonnna up the ante to become “Just Friends with Perks”!




Hope you enjoy it!!

Cheers,
Beth

Hey Rob,

Thanks! It's so funny, re-reading it now after so much time. They have certainly both moved on since then (though I do believe as I said they are still good friends)....

Have a great day!
Beth

LOL totally love it!!!

[kelliedawnpicklerfan]

That's purely brilliant Beth! You should write a song on Kellie's next album! I hope Kellie and Bucky see that! Maybe if they do they could record it!

Thanks for the kudos....and frankly, I think I COULD write a song for her ("Right From the Start" the prime example....), but it's getting the music to the artists which is so tricky.

Actually, I handed this song with a bunch of other songs to Bucky last summer, and though I understood from his mom that they were all really impressed (the boys, I mean), nothing every came of it. I suspect at the beginning they have to be very careful to get the PERFECT songs...

But anyway, I'm going to keep plugging away....I love it...and country is the way to go.......at least for me....

Thanks again!!

xoxo,
Beth

P.S. Does Kellie ever come on here?

[KellieShellieGirl]

You most certainly have writing chops Beth,great work! I too write lyrics,mainly for myself,as it's a great escape when things ain't going the right way or really just in general.That's all you can do is sticking to it. Keep on writing!

WAY TO GO

Well, thank yall for saying so. I was sorta hoping when Bucky was asked a question if he'd ever collab on a song with Kellie, and he said sure he'd love to (though no mention of my song waiting in the wings !!)....that's okay though, all in good time.

There's another old Kellie one I'd written I"ll post maybe later this week...

Until then, thanks for your support!!

xoxo,
Beth

Sorry Beth but I don't think Kellie comes on here! But I wish she did. She's a busy girl though.
