Title: Whiskey Tango Foxtrot Kind of Moment
Post by: MarioD on February 14, 2017, 01:42:20 AM
BobH was over last sunday and said he had an idea for a song called A Whiskey Tango Foxtrot Kind of Moment.  You know lets sing about some of the bad things that happen to people.  So we put our heads together and came up with some lyrics and picked a Band-in-a-Box style.  That week I polished the tracks and this Sunday Bob sang the lead and I sang the harmony. This was a real quick and dirty ditty.

Let us know what you think.

Whiskey tango Foxtrot Kind of Moment

V1-
I was driving on the highway
In the pouring rain
I knew I had to take action fast
When this fool came in my lane

I swerved and almost hit a tree
And as I spun around
I saw the jerk through the window
he was texting on the phone

C1
Cause it's a Whiskey tango Foxtrot kind of moment
I just can't believe what I saw
It's a Whiskey tango Foxtrot kind of moment
It's the one that makes you say don't that take all

V2
I was sitting in the drive through lane
At a fast food restaurant
I placed my order and when I got home
My order wasn't what I got

I order a burger and a side of fries
They must have thought I was overweight
Cause when I got home and opened the bag
There was a salad in its place

C2
it's a Whiskey tango Foxtrot kind of moment
Those idiots did not give me a deal
It's a Whiskey tango Foxtrot kind of moment
It's not gonna to be a happy meal

V3
Now I went to the doctors
To get a physical
I filled out all the triplicate forms
It was a living hell

When I went to play the bill
He said I would be fine
I handed him my insurance card
That's when I was denied

C3
it's a Whiskey tango Foxtrot kind of moment
Bad insurance that's just my luck
a Whiskey tango Foxtrot kind of moment
That makes me wanta to yell what the
Whiskey tango Foxtrot kind of moment
It's a Whiskey tango Foxtrot kind of moment
It's a Whiskey tango Foxtrot kind of moment
Rant on

I have many,much more colorful and twisted stories to tell...that I could make a career out of telling them,musically!Is the all done from BIAB?Also...were you trying to go for a live feel?It just sounds to me,like a band being recorded with a field recorder.
Sort of has a Jerry Reed vibe to it. 8)

Lovely foot-tapper, and something we can all identify with I'm sure!

I should have been more precise. BiaB supplied the drums and I changed the piano to a mandolin. I played the jugs and banjo via my keyboard controller.  BobH played the acoustic guitar.

Yes, we were going for an old time country on the porch jam session.

Thanx for listening and the comments.
