From the recording Some Day and Southern Coast
Some Day is the single from "STORIES OF LIFE" released in 2016.
Jamie Slate plays every string instrument on this track. Taylor Slate provides back-up vocals and Jimm Mosher plays drum and piano.
This song came to Jamie, day after day, musical piece after musical piece, lyric after lyric, in the ten days following his father's funeral (James Wade Slate) in 2015 in the summer of 2015. The entire thing was written in his head until he finally picked up a guitar and started recording.
The musical structure is based on the influence of Ronnie Van Zandt and Lynyrd Skynyrd.
Lyrics
Here we go!
Some day, some day, yeah
Some day, well some day, yeah
Me and Jenny heading cross the farm
Trucking out to her daddy's barn
Chilling out in my bedroom
Run to the door momma come home too soon!
woo
Well some day! Well some day, yeah
Some day, some day, yeah
Well me and Betty used to get ourselves soused
Starting hanging out, and playing house!
Girl we took that curve, way to fast!
Sometimes love ain't meant to last!
Come on Betty!
Some day, well some day, yeah
Some day, some day, yeah
Head to the office, it's another day
Some come to work, but most come to play
Well this old boy, he needs some sun
Gonna head to the islands, and have me some fun!
Give me some!
Woo!
Well some day, well some day, yeah
Don't you wait! for some day, yeah
Some day, well some day, yeah
Don't you wait! for some day, yeah
No!
Don't you wait now
