All I have so far is the chorus. Someday I'll sell my companies and have more time for fun but for now, my writing time is very limited. Even while composing this brief snip, I have had to answer 7 phone calls.
Never cash your paycheck in a bar
Always check the oil in your car
Never till the soil in the rain
Never let the world see your pain
Don’t talk about religion
Politics or women
Nothing in the world is ever free
These are things my father taught me
John, that's a great idea for a song and a good solid chorus. I hope you get time to finish this.
I can imagine using 3 or 4 of those lessons as the topics for your verses and telling short stories in wich each one applies.

Thanks Renee. This is another one that will go into the unfinished file. If I get time today, I would rather work on one about the Confederate flag controversy.
My father is long gone and I really don't want to dig up old resentments.
