On the plus side, I thought everyone involved in the recording did a nice solid job—you all should feel good about that!!!

On the down side—the song itself—the idea’s been rehashed again and again, on both the “lyric” side and the “music” side (chords/melody/etc.).

Best wishes in all your songwriting endeavors.

They Love The Business

Written by Courtney Babcock

Well they may not look like superstars when they come out
And it might appear they don’t know what it’s all about
The pay they get don’t even cover gas and meals
But they don’t really mind, (No!) they’re shooting for that record deal

They love the business
Going to go all the way
They love the business
Make it to the top one day
They love the business
Their hopes are high
And their dreams are in the sky

Now Len can play guitar like it was his best friend
Sometimes we wish those solos would never end
And Roy can sing those hurtin’ songs and break your heart
Cause he’s thinking about someone who’s sitting in the dark

Chorus

Now they miss their families in the most awful way
Even though they call long distance almost every day
And the drummer keeps that back beat thumping like a train
Cause he knows in twelve weeks they’ll be coming home again

Chorus
