I Won't Cool My Heals
My dad wrote the 1st verse and the chorus and I took it from there. It's a great story of a typical musician willing to risk it all for fame and fortune. Oh, what we all wouldn't give to have our songs flying 50,000 watts across the USA. I won't cool my heals!
Cool My Heals
Songwriter - John West, Tim West
Album - Who's Been Sleeping in Papa Bear's Bed?
Well this is a story about a man who played guitar
He knew if he kept on keeping on someday he'd be a star
Well this is a tell my friends you may of heard a time or two
And if you'll sit down and stop fooling around
I'll lay it one more time on you
He had 5 piece band he was guitar man
Determined to make it someday
And each night he'd get on that stage and play
Chorus - I won't cool my heals
Until it all feels real
And the DJs are saying my name
Flying in to the night on an air wave ride
50,000 Watts USA
And everybody sings along
Cause they all know my song
I won't cool my heals until that day
Well time flew by like it always does
And his hair began to fade
But you could still find him any weekend night
In a bar, a honky tonk or cafe
And his wife and kids had up and left him
Somewhere down that long hard road
She said some dreams never come true
And well man that's something that she knows
But that 5 piece band and guitar man
Are still determined to make it someday
And tonight they get on stage and play
Chorus - (Repeat)
Bridge - La la la la la
Chorus - (Repeat)
