A proud uncle writes a little lyric for his Niece
On December 30, 1992, my Daughter, Kyriè was born. (Yeah , thanks for the sympathy) Jerry Young, one of my brother-in-laws, wrote, for some strange reason, a little lyric titled “Little Miss Kyriè.”To make a long story, nine years to be exact, short, I‘ll just say that I was fiddling with the guitar (technically you would fiddle a fiddle and strum a guitar, but I didn‘t want to write that because it would have been too long, and I am trying to make a long story short, so that would have been silly of me to write something long instead of short… Hmm.)
I was strumming the guitar when I came across this chord progression; it sounded a bit country to me and I liked it. I quickly threw together an arrangement; halfway through this process, I remembered Jerry‘s, “Little Miss Kyriè,” after nine years and found them buried with all of my other lyrics that I would like to finish, one day.
Wouldn‘t you know, the lyrics fit; almost like they were meant for it. I did have to rearrange some verses and add some lines to the chorus, after I asked Jerry if he wanted to do it or was it OK for me to.
It is a fun, danceable, sing-a-long, and happy tune. I‘m not sure if Jerry liked it or not, because it took him a month to get over hear and listen to it before I finished it, bit I know Kyriè likes it!!
