This isn't a song about how to raise children.....it's more about what you want them to see as an example https://johnkenney.bandcamp.com/track/got-to-be-a-better-way-no-no-no-songGot to be a better way (revised) J.Kenney © 2017 You say it's no surprise people ain't good at acting wise fussin' and fighting Been that way since the dawn of time I see it clear as day let me add it’s sad to say Getting while the getting’s good Spreads around the cost but there’s hell to pay I said no no no there’s got to be a better way Think of all the little children who hear all the things we say everything comes around, careful now, we’re teaching them how to play (Lead) I said no no no there’s got to be a better way Look at all the little children who hear all the things we say everything comes around, careful now, we’re teaching them how to play As far as I can see It rolls on back to you and me Picking’ up the pieces when we drop the ball But that’s your call It’s easy to forget The time you felt your first regret cold and scared and lashing out and all I said no no no there’s got to be a better way Think of all those little children now who hear all the things we say everything comes around, careful now, sayin no no no there’s got to be a better way Look in all those little babies eyes They hear everything we say everything comes around, careful now, we’re teaching them how to play credits released May 25, 2017 Style _AcBiz2.

What a tune, jyonks! This one is very well produced, and I love the choice of instruments - especially that harmonica! Definitely getting a classic country sort of vibe on this one. Thanks for sharing - you should be proud of this one!
Cheers,
Deryk

That was a fun listen! Your voice sort of weaves around the note in a sort of relaxed, Dylan-esque way.
This is the epitome of a great lazy song that just takes its time. The mix is impressive. It sounds so good, I actually double-checked to make sure you were really using BiaB!

Very cool tune. Heard a hint of Roger Miller in the tune. Excellent vocal, dobro and harmonica were cool. Well done.

Ahh yes....the elusive "better way." May not find it but about always worth chasing.
The whole laid back vibe works for the write and vocal -- and works well at that.
As Janice says the lyric sings.
And the mix sounds great on the monitors.
Nice!

I really love the harmonica in this one! Also just the way the overall song sounds is quite amazing. I can easily see this being on a country radio station. It has that nice soft twang to it and is also easy to listen to at the same time. Good job. <3
Cheers,
Ember
