What 'Omma Do (edit) 550

Texas country-folk, brisk two-step shuffle; warm, crisp male baritone with crooning legato phrasing, conversational half-spoken delivery and dry, up-front mix; hooks doubled on the recurring singalong refrain; lively small-room band feel, organic vintage recording; bright acoustic strumming, nimble upright bass, brushed snare, handclaps, occasional playful honky-tonk piano fills; energy shifting across ten distinct vocal sections

V6-MINI

[Verse 1]
Left my coffee cooling on the edge of the sink
Found a scrawled-out note;
Written in a permanent ink
Signed it "Don't wait up"
in a sarcastic;  Kinda  Bliss

Like a man could sleep; 
Through anything, as big as This

[Pre-Chorus]
The porch swing squeaks, the kitchen clock gets loud
I’m much too proud to say it to the clouds

[Chorus]
What’ma do, what’cha gonna do
You without me, me without you?
I need you, you need me too
That’s the plain old truth we keep talking around

What’ma do, what’cha gonna do
When the whole wide world feels upside down?

[Verse 2]
Your boots are by the door, one heel worn thin
My best shirt’s missing one pearl snap
I’ve checked the shed and called your closest friend
He says you’re fine, then asks me where you’re at

[Pre-Chorus]
I could make a speech, but it’d come out wrong
So I’ll save the clever part for a country song

[Chorus]
What’ma do, what’cha gonna do
You without me, me without you?
I need you, you need me too
That’s the plain old truth we keep talking around

What’ma do, what’cha gonna do
When the whole wide world feels upside down?

[Verse 3]
The dog has picked your side; that much is clear
He’s guarding your old sweater like a prize
I told him, “Son, she’ll probably reappear”
He gave me that same look you give my lies

[Bridge]
I can fix a gate, I can change a tire
I can burn the toast and blame the fire
But a house gets cold without your laughter
And, it's not half the house, that we're after

[Chorus]
What’ma do, what’cha gonna do
You without me, me without you?
I need you, you need me too
That’s the plain old truth we keep talking around

What’ma do, what’cha gonna do
Come on home and turn this whole thing ’round

[Outro]
What’ma do, what’cha gonna do?
You without me, me without you
I need you, you need me too
Well, I’m saving you the good chair

And a night real nice, if you get here soon...

[instrumental]

If you get here soon...

[fade to end]

Please; get here soon...

[fade to end]

Come; get here soon...

[end]
