Always Stay Down To Earth, Walter
I grew up overshadowed by lush lakes
Couldn't catch the eye of no city boy
Here I am devoted to Walter
How I love the way you look in your blue jeans
Can't believe I let the smog cloud my eye
Where the lush lakes stand
And the deep mountains surround
I'll ride my battered truck with you by my side
There's a whisper in the Tennessee breeze
Reminding me of Chris
That whisper builds
That whisper cries
Chris in the morning skies
You appear on the horizon
Brushing that straight hair from your eyes
The city folk with their fancy gadgets
Cement lakes like grey tombs
Don't have nothin' on our way of life
Just listen to the waves
Don't live your life like a fool
Today might feel a time to be like a fool
But that ain't no way to lead a life
You know, there's a lot I drive by in my battered truck
Folk who is messing up
Always stay down to earth, Walter
Always stay down to earth
In Tennessee, when I was a child
I met a down to earth man
"How can you be so down to earth?" asked I
Here was his wise reply
Don't live your life like a fool
Today might feel a time to be like a fool
But that ain't no way to lead a life
Met an old lady who lived like a fool
"What happened to her?" asked I
Here was his wise reprise
Don't live your life like a fool
Today might feel a time to be like a fool
But that ain't no way to lead a life
That lady's gone now
It's sad really
Word is, she had straight hair once
Little Walter, keep your jeans blue
Always stay down to earth, Walter
Always stay down to earth
Waves, waves, waves
Waves, waves, waves...

Angela and the girls listened to the applause as they finished the song. It was one of their new ones, and they tried hard to make it sound country. They couldn’t believe how well it sounded and that the audience loved it.

A huge smile appears on Angela’s face as she turns towards the girls and holds up three fingers. Cassady knew what song Angela wanted her to start tapping out. She starts playing their theme song on Wings Of An Angels.

Each of the girls had a part that they sang in the song when it came to Cassady’s part of the song. She played a high-energy drum solo. When she got close to the end of her solo, everyone jumped in and finished the song.

When they were finished, the audience greeted them with loud applause. The girls bow and wave to them as they leave the stage. As they are walking off, they run into Luke Bryant.

“Oh! My God!” All the girls stop and look at Mr. Bryant as he walks towards them.

A smile was on his face “how am I supposed to follow that?”

“Sorry about that, Mr. Bryant,” Angela spoke for the group.

“Please, call me Luke, and you young ladies have nothing to be sorry about. You, ladies, did a fathomable job. I hope you’re sticking around.”
Luke looks at the five young ladies.

“You bet we are.” Cassady wanted to hear Mr. Bryant play.

Luke smiles at them as he heads onto the stage to begin his set. All the girls watch him as he exists from where they are.

“Man, I never thought I would meet Mr. Bryant.” Juni loved country music.

“Well, let’s change and enjoy the show tonight.” Debbie leads the girls to the bus to change.
