ShowGirl Series #3 "showgirl"
“The upbeat country tune brings us back into the sweltering bars and venues that we dearly miss, especially as Carrie Cunningham sings her heart out for us to savor. ”
I wrote this song while out on the road coming home from my last tour in 2019. Somewhere in the middle of California. I was reflecting on my life as an entertainer. The quiet of the road and the sunsetting to my right put me in the right frame of mind. No matter how taxing it can be, if it is in your blood, you'll never be able to quit.
Showgirl
In 14 miles I'll have 700 more to go,
then I'll be more than halfway home.
I can't wait to climb out of these miles I'm wearing
at least until, I'm back out on the road.
I'll always be a showgirl
Living on the edge of the road girl
Just one more night under neon lights is all I need
I'll always be, a showgirl
Too many times I tried to quit this addiction
but I was born the life of a musician
I'm not fooling anyone by saying I'm done
"cuz they all know, it's hell with my condition
I'll always be a showgirl
Living on the edge of the road girl
Just one more night under neon lights is all I need
I'll always be, a showgirl
I'll always be a showgirl
Living on the edge of the road girl
Just one more night under neon lights is all I need
Just one more night under neon lights is all I need tonight
I'll always be, a showgirl
I'll always be a showgirl.
