NEW ROUGH RECORDING https://soundclick.com/share.cfm?id=13733207
SWEET ROSA LEA
© 2018 Mackie Humphries
Old memories they come alive
It’s been a long country ride
In morning light I’ll hold her close
I never should have let her go
Just passed the trail lined with trees
Soon I’ll be with my Rosa Lea
To 'd place 'ere we once loved
I’ll steal a kiss and feel her touch
Tomorrow we’ll live our yesterdays
Autumn leaves will dance the wind
This time I got her diamond ring
Love’s river still runs through my veins
Deep down inside my heart sings
Sweet Rosa Lea……. Sweet Rosa Lea……. Sweet Rosa Lea…….
Tomorrow we’ll live our yesterdays
Autumn leaves will dance the wind
This time I got her diamond ring
Love’s river still runs through my veins
Deep down inside my heart sings
Sweet Rosa Lea……. Sweet Rosa Lea……. Sweet Rosa Lea…….
Love’s river still runs through my veins
Deep down inside my heart sings
Sweet Rosa Lea……. Sweet Rosa Lea……. Sweet Rosa Lea…….
Tomorrow we’ll live our yesterdays
Sweet Rosa Lea….Sweet Rosa Lea

Hi Mackie.
Nice, warm country blues song.
Maybe ease up on vocal reverb length. Lots of echoing and artifacts going on there.

Lovin' the blue! You hear the aching in your vocal and the blues sound awfully good on this one. Agree with Vic on the verb. Sounding real good Mackie! Enjoyed it. Excellent lyric.
Dave.

Vic-
Thanks for listening--this one needs some TLC--I struggle mixing in the headphones with my hearing aids--You are right about the reverb--I can hear, also, where the melody needs some help--I appreciate your input!

My mandolin player and I wrote a song called Rosalee several years ago. After playing it one night a lady told us that was her name and she asked how we spelled it. I asked her how she spelled hers, so now we spell it Rosalie. Good tune Mackie.

It's a hot, hot day in Nashville--97 degrees!
NY is probably cooler!

Mackie,
Not sure how I missed this one—love the blues riffs throughout. Think I would have liked a third verse; or maybe a bridge to shake things up toward the end, but all in all, liked my listen a lot. Thanks for sharing.
Best regards,
Deej

Thanks for your positive take--You are probably right about another verse or Bridge!
I'll keep that in mind!
