Drinkin' Blue Moon by Anna E. Wescoat and Brett Turner

I co-wrote this one with Brett Turner out of Utah, based on a hook that I came up with after hearing listening to one of my all time favorite oldies songs, "Blue Moon"-- I thought it'd make a good hook to use Blue Moon the beer instead of in the literal sense, and thanks to Brett's awesome writing skills, we teamed up and wrote this in about an hour! Hope you all enjoy it, and if you do, don't forget to like and subscribe! Thanks so much! 🙏🎶

Lyrics:
V1
It’s 8 o’clock on Friday night
I know damn well he clocked out at five
He thinks I don’t know where he’s going
But here we go again
CHORUS:
When he starts drinking blue moon
I know he’s trying to forget that room
Where he thought she’d be waiting on
His love to hold her all night long
I’ve never been anything but true
She never loved him like I do
Wish he could see why I’m so blue
When he starts drinking blue moon
V2
He says that’s he’s in love with me
But he’s still hung up on her memory
He's still got her pictures in his phone
That’s why I’m sitting all alone
CHORUS:
He’s out drinking blue moon
I know he’s trying to forget that room
Where he thought she’d be waiting on
HIs love to hold her all night long
I’ve never been anything but true
She never loved him like I do
Wish he could see why I’m so blue
When he's out drinking blue moon
BR:
People always ask me
why I choose to stay
I'm Holdin’ out hope
that maybe one day
LAST CHORUS:
He’ll stop drinking blue moon
I’m gonna help him to forget that room
Cause I’m the one that he’s been waiting on
He’s got my love to hold him all night long
I’ll never be anything but true
No one could ever love him like I do
Yeah one day I won't be so blue
When he stops drinkin blue moon
Tag:
No one day I aint gonna see no blue
When he stops drinking blue moon

Bluebird cafe in Nashville?:) Lovely song, Anna!

[@annawescoat2588]

Thanks so much! Yes ma'am, back in August I won the monthly Golden Pick award at the Bluebird Cafe for my song "How's That Gonna Get Us By" and it's framed right behind me , since it was one of the most special performances of my career so far 😁🙏🎶

@@annawescoat2588 wow, congratulations! Keep going!

[@musicfan712]

Excellent. Have you ever played the drums? I really like the lead parts you played. Do you play solos in your songs? Looking forward to seeing your other instruments. Cool guitar

[@annawescoat2588]

Yes, actually the drums you hear in this song are the ones I played and recorded through my looping pedal :)
