One of my little brothers (Tim) recently sent me the start of a country song he was writing and asked for help. This is what he had so far.

Trying to come up with lyrics to a country song. It starts like this:
I want a woman who has issues,
Issues of Playboy magazine.
And give me a woman who needs tissues,
Can you help?
Tim
So I took this as a personal challenge as I always wanted to write a country song myself. So over the course of a day, I would turn it over in my head and scratch a line on a piece of paper from time to time and that I night I put together.
Title: IF YOU GIVE ME THAT
You know this single life is a tough old road lord
So I figured we should talk a bit
About the woman of my dreams
If that woman does exist
Now some say that I am too choosy
So I cut my list a bit
Chorus
I want a woman without any issues unless they are issues of a men's magazine
I want a woman that loves me for what I am and not what her mother wants me to be
One that doesn't keep records of who was last on top
And one that will still love me, when I say I got to stop
Back to song
If you can give me that for one month lord, I'd die a happy man
I am not trying to be difficult or demanding, just looking for a woman who understands
I want a woman who really loves me and is tired of these one night stands.
I am looking for a do right woman for this honky tonking man
Back to Chorus
End
What do ya'll think? Sounds like a Trace Adkins song to me!
