Our next songwriter's group cd project is novelty songs. This song was inspired from the world of online dating. Now, I've tried a few different sites out with no luv connection per say...but good stories along the way, interesting people I've conversed with, and I've learned more about what a squirrel I can be when talking to someone on the phone for the first time. Soooo I met a gentleman from Colorado. Along the way in our conversations, he was sick with a bad cold. I mentioned bringing him chicken soup if I were in the same state as him...all of a sudden the idea came for the soup to be personified...I re-read the lyrics of Gavin DeGraw's song, Belief... that was written from this perspective. This was one fun song to write and come up with a harmonica part. It was so out of my element. Thanks to my friend, Keith, who wrote the music and got me out of my folk music box...refreshing!

Talkin’ Soup
Grotian/Heimann
I’ve got a broth that’s light and juicy
With a noodle that’s thick and yummy
and the meat is from a chicken
It’s the Chicken bok bok It’s the chicken bok bok I be
Chorus:
Talkin’ soup I’m talkin’ soup
Talk, talk, talk, talk
I’m talkin’ soup I’m talkin’ soup
I’ve got a home that’s round and cozy
Cooks my potatoes and carrots warmly
And the beef is soft and tender
In the crock pot in the crock pot I be
Repeat Chorus
Bridge:
When you’re sick I‘ll be calling you ready to fill your tummy full
With nourishment and lots of love that’s what I do best I be
Repeat Chorus
