Okay, I feel like it may be time for a recap of this blog. On January 28th, after registering for FAWM , I decided to take on my own personal challenge to compose 100 lyrics in one year. Well, to say the least, I'm a little behind. I should have completed 45 lyrics by now. (In my defense, I have spent a bit of time putting a few lyrics to music, so go easy on me :) ). So, here is the list so far...
1. Carry Me Home
2. Five More Minutes
3. California
4. More Than Enough
5. Straight
6. Bein' Me
7. What If
8. That Song
9. Understand
10. Wild Ride
11. Ain't Sorry
12. In Common
13. He's On His Way
14. Country As They Come
15. Hollywood
16. Let Me Lie
17. Hate The Game
18. Ain't It A Shame
19. Hideaway
20. This Is Gonna Hurt
21. Fernando
22. She Don't Need A Man
23. You Can Go
24. Woman of Your Dreams
25. The Grass is Always Greener
26. Watch Me
27. I Lied
And here is number 28. I just wrote this today for the sake of writing.
Drag Me To The Altar
2011 Chelsey Sears
You might say I'm the black sheep of the fam'ly
It's been that way since I was a kid
My brother and my cousins all are married
I'm here pickin' this ole guitar for tips
Now I'll stand up and say that
I'm content with my life
But you know my crazy relatives
Have got somethin' else in mind
They wanna find me some prince charming
And set it all up
Do the best they can
To make us fall in love
Ev'rytime they bring up a new guy
It gets more awkward
But they're not gonna rest
'Til they drag me to the altar
I know that grandma means the best
When she's talkin' 'bout those good ole days
She slips in a couple hints
That I need a family to raise
When someone has a baby
I always get that look
That says "they're settlin' down
Like you probably should"

Ev'rytime they bring up a new guy
It gets more awkward
But they're not gonna rest
'Til they drag me to the altar
They don't understand my thinkin'
On why I want to live
On the edge, on my own, on the open road
But to me it just makes sense
They wanna find me some prince charming
And set it all up
Do the best they can
To make us fall in love
Ev'rytime they bring up a new guy
It gets more awkward
But they're not gonna rest
'Til they drag me to the altar
Ev'rytime they bring up a new guy
It gets more awkward
But they're not gonna rest
'Til they drag me to the altar
