I am just a songwriter/musician/singer/producer who writes a few songs every now and then. I have since retired from road work and mostly do studio recordings and I have my own home demo studio which you hear music created in it from time to time. I will post some demos of my own and maybe some demos of co-writes or co-producing. It's just what I feel like posting at the time. Thanks for stopping by! ;-)

Lyrics
Title: Dear in the headlight look written by: Jeff Knight, BMI © 2008 Genre: Country verse 1 Jenny Sue came by my house after school said me and daddy's going fishing Saturday afternoon we could pick you up on our way by if I asked him don't think he'd mind verse 2 all that afternoon she was smiling at me I would smile back at her when her daddy couldn't see and when it got dark the radio played then Jenny Sue started dancing in the rain (her daddy said) chorus There goes my dear, my baby girl my whole world, she's my everything a fresh breath of spring and when I turn on those headlights I see her smile, dancing under the moonlight then I cry that's the most beautiful picture in my memory's scrap book my dear in the headlight look verse 3 Fifteen years later I still see her sway I remember that moment in time like it was yesterday now Jenny Sue's expecting our first child every time I think about her I just smile verse 4 now we still go to that fishing hole she's even more beautiful with that ole cane pole when the fish don't bite the radio plays two of us hold each other til the skies turn gray chorus There goes my dear, my baby girl my whole world, she's my everything a fresh breath of spring and when I turn on those headlights I see her smile, dancing under the moonlight then I cry that's the most beautiful picture in my memory's scrap book my dear in the headlight look bridge: as we leave the hospital room Jenny's smile is in full bloom I got a new picture to store as I pull up to the door chorus There goes my dear, my baby girl my whole world, she's my everything a fresh breath of spring and when I turn on those headlights I see her smile, dancing under the moonlight then I cry that's the most beautiful picture in my memory's scrap book my dear in the headlight look outro now my baby girl came home after school said she had a friend to go fishing Saturday afternoon

Jeff Knight comes through again, with another great country song, with life application. Great play on words, with reversal in meaning to a well known phrase. Gave a whole new perspective to the hook "Dear in the headlights look" Great job Jeff! "You just can't take the country, out of this country boy!!!"
