Topic: Need Some Help With This One, Folks
It's based on a silly little game Dondra and I play every day. If I am the first one to say, I love you, I get to say "ding" right afterward. She replies with "Love you too, *ding-ding* If she's the first one, the opposite applies.
Does any one remember Shirley Ellis' "Name Game"? I have it styled that way with a spoken part in the middle.
The chords as I imagine them are G ---D7 ----G----D7.Please try it and tell me if this is a good progression.
BUT as usual, I have written myself into a corner and can't come out. It needs another verse and during the spoken part I have the band playing a G-C-D progression.
Here it is, please critique and help me out if you can with another verse? Thanks!
The Love Bell
(starts with a loud crescendo on drums and bass - one beat and simultaneously the singer begins with......)
Hey!!!
Let the love bell ring
let it ring, let it ring
I'm justa doin' my thing
Sayin' I love you!
It's a game we play
each and every day
Be the first to say
"Baby I love you"
[Spoken} "Why not play along with us?
The rules are simple. You be the first one to say "I love you", and you get to say "ding" afterward. Like this: I lve you! *DING*
Your partner replies with, "Love you too" *DING, DING*. No losers in this game. Only ever-lovin' WINNERS."
So let the love bell ring!
Let it ring, let it ring
Justa doin' my thing
Sayin' I love you"
