David and Rachel Radio 3.8.23: BEER AND A BIBLE Hey Y'all, It’s that time of the month again. Or is it week?? Hmmmmmmm. While Rachel is contemplating her next fantasy, we spun this up. I called her and said: “I have a title. Beer and a Bible.” “How does it go?” “I got a beer and a Bible and it’s just about all I need.” “What else?” “Hmmm. The first one helps me smile and the second one helps me see. That’s it. I was hoping you would finish it.” The following result is based on what she sent back ten minutes later. BEER AND A BIBLEBy Rachel Cintula and David Snyder https://soundcloud.com/rachelanddavidworktapes/beer-and-a-bibleV1 Jesus spent time in the wilderness I'm in the woods to hunt and fish He walked all over the Holy Land So do I, with a gun in my hand A tradesman and a carpenter’s son Both tired when the day is done He came looking for imperfect men And I think he found one, but let me tell ya son CH I got a beer now and I got a Bible It's just about all I need The first one helps smile a bit And the second one helps me see And if it was good enough for mama And Waylon Then it's good enough for me Yeah I got a beer and I got a Bible And it's just about all I need V2 All roads lead us to forgiveness Not hate, regret or bitterness And Jesus doesn't mind this beer in my hand Or the time that I spend in my tree stand I got hope when my life is done I'll be fishing up there with the Son Because he came to save lost men Ended up being my best friend CH So I got a beer now and I got a Bible It's just about all I need The first one helps smile a bit And the second one helps me see And if it was good enough for mama And Stapleton Then it's good enough for me Yeah I got a beer and I got a Bible And it's just about all I need CH I got a beer and a Bible And I got Jesus helping me I got a beer and a Bible And it’s just about all I need I got a beer and a Bible And Jesus helping me It's just about all I need All music and lyrics copyright 2023 by Rachel Cintula and David Snyder David Snyder: Vocals, Instrumentation, Mixing, Mastering, Production RealTracks in style: 2915:Bass, Electric CountryPopByron12-key Ev 085 RealTracks in style: 3412:Guitar, Acoustic, Rhythm OldTimeSadBallad Ev16 065 RealTracks in style: 3691:Guitar, Lap Steel, Background Americana16ths Ev16 075 RealTracks in song: 832:Guitar, Electric, Rhythm AltCountryMoody Ev 075 RealDrums in style:AmericanaSlowRockFred^1-a:Sidestick ,HiHat , b:Ride Snare Other links for the week and month: https://soundcloud.com/rachelanddavidworktapes/take-a-long-hard-look-at-mehttps://soundcloud.com/rachelanddavidworktapes/if-we-can-make-it-through-midnighthttps://soundcloud.com/rachelanddavidworktapes/penelopehttps://soundcloud.com/rachelanddavidworktapes/big-wide-open-roadhttps://soundcloud.com/rachelanddavidworktapes/when-it-rainshttps://soundcloud.com/rachelanddavidworktapes/thick-thighshttps://soundcloud.com/rachelanddavidworktapes/church-girlshttps://soundcloud.com/david-snyder-gigs3/one-more-whiskey-songhttps://soundcloud.com/david-snyder-gigs3/dirty-hands-clean-moneyhttps://soundcloud.com/david-snyder-gigs3/dire-straitshttps://soundcloud.com/rachelanddavidworktapes/creek-dayhttps://soundcloud.com/david-snyder-gigs3/make-me-love-again

Seems you've found the GOP Trinity: Beer, Bible & Bazooka.
Wailin' about Waylon with wounded rhymes in a talkie set of verses works and the chorus is solidly familiar and friendly.
Appropriately skeletal arrangement too.
Cheers

David & Rachel strikes again with another winner.
Great lyrics - super job on the Rachel.
Great vocal as always David.
If we ever get together we should have a Bible drinking reading session.

Hi David and Rachel,
"I got a beer now and I got a Bible
It's just about all I need
The first one helps smile a bit
And the second one helps me see"
Nice!
Another excellent collaboration between you two, keep them coming!

David and Rachel,
Love the glimpse on your writing process with Rachel . . . that’s true partnership . . . because you started with just a line and built a wonderful, fully rich lyric. It’s a great hook and you do it justice in all respects. Nice arrangement, solid mix. Not sure why, but this reminds me a bit of the Counting Crows. Good stuff!
My best to you both,
Deej

Thanks Mario!
I had a friend once who said (while I was at his house):
"Can you ever think of anything more beautiful than two buddies reading the Bible together while splitting a bottle of wine?"
I was like:
"Uh....let me get back to you on that one man."
On the other hand, Jesus did make wine by the barrel.
And did say (In the Modern Revised New David Version):
"Hey what's wrong with you stick-in-the mud hypocrite Pharisees! You say the Son of Man came eating all day long, hanging out with prostitutes and drinking wine!!! So what! I'm the Son of God! I can do whatever I want! So shut up!! You pit of vipers! Whitewashed tombs! Children of Satan!"
So there.
Maybe that settles it.

Starts off with a great song idea, then throw in the talents of David & Rachel and let the magic flow. And, man, it flowed and the mug runneth over. You guys are on fire, and I hope it never runs out. You two are quite inspirational. Excellent band and a pleasing mix.

So you're saying... If it was good enough for mama... It's good enough for Floyd, and that equals country????

Well, that’s another fun song from y’all.
Great hook!
This one is bound to be a country hit, especially with the shoutouts to Mama, Waylon and Stapleton.
Kudos!
