This is a song about the girl next door. It is part of an allegory (R College Story) about searching for truth.
Every jam session I was ever at played around with riffing to the sixth. I put a little umph into it, and got this song. Notice the melody to the verse parts, done by flat picking particular strings of the chord.
Didn't I just do that? Oh. This is a rockabilly number in the key of G, and another of R more (armor?) popular songs. We had a couple tables of people enthusiastically singing along to this one at our Flamingo Grille gig of August 20, 1994 in Fairfield, Solano County, California. (Flamingo Grille is now sadly defunct. Hmmmm… Coincidence?)
