Needed: More patriotic rockers forwarded!

[jkellyjr]

Here's one I wrote last May according to formula, bridge in correct place, etc. Writing this way isn't hard, folks, but it does get boring to my mind after too many. Listener gave me all 7s and 8s, except for 6s on production; It loved the lyrics. Just said my Berryesque tune needing updating. (Emulation, not thievery.) I'm sure guitar breaks were too long, knowing what I know now. But not sure why the guitar phaser effect at 40 percent depth wasn't different enough. It's a shame, though, because I really thought about the timing of this song. It's counterintuitive, when you think about it. Times are tough in the USA, but I wanted to be positive, for a change, after experiencing something in a foreign country. These songs worked in the late-70s early '80s when patriotism was needed. I remember Charlie Daniels doing something. We need these songs again! Oh, well, felt the need to redeem.

We’re gonna be OK!
