This was mainly just for fun. I wrote the tongue in cheek country lyric and George Schiessl added his vocals and music. https://soundcloud.com/james-lookng...chiessl-vocalsmusicl-james-tanner-lyricsYou Make Me Sick (Vs) I woke up this morning, all set to go to work Till I saw you laying there, in nothing but my shirt Called the boss, and faked a cough and said; I'm gonna need me a sick day, It's best I stay in bed (Ch) You make me sick, when I'm not You make me sick, and I'm sick a lot You gave me the bug, it's hard to lick I might get fired, you make me sick (Vs) The third time this month, that I've stayed home and called in; and I blame it on you, that I did it again You do something to me, I'm too weak to fight I've got a fever for you, high as a kite (Ch) You make me sick, when I'm not You make me sick, and I'm sick a lot You gave me the bug, it's hard to lick I might get fired, you make me sick (Bridge) I don't think there is a cure Love's infected me for sure Your hold on me's unbeatable but in this bed it's treatable (Ch) You make me sick, when I'm not You make me sick, and I'm sick a lot You gave me the bug, it's hard to lick I might get fired, you make me sick © L.

Ha, ha -- Nice twist on the title/idea. Pretty fun tune, be a good sing along tune in a live setting. Good job all around. Pretty clever.

Thanks Kevin, after George uploaded the music and vocal idea, I thought the same thing about the sing along. I thought he did a great job. I appreciate the kind compliment.

I was expecting an "I hate everything about you" song but was SO pleasantly surprised! Clever lyrics and fun, upbeat production make for a great listening experience. I, for one, remember taking "sick" days. Convalescing can be such fun!  Ricki

Funny as all get up and a tasty twist on the title.
Great job by MR. Schiessl.
The lyrics Sounds familiar for some reason, have you posted them before.
Hats off 2 U both.

Hats off 2 U both. Hi Nelson, thanks for the listen and nice comment. I haven't posted the lyrics here before, but I do have them in a couple other forums. That may be where you saw them, if you go elsewhere on the net.
