Would Ya, Could Ya, Ain’t Ya Gonna, If I Asked Ya, Would Ya Wanna
Funny thing about living in a small town for the better part of 36 years, you have many memories that really do take you back. Last night, a customer who used to work at the store when it was known as Shaffer Value was in and I had to recite her full name (which is six in length… K.J.E.S.H.P) that she made it a point to teach me when we worked along with the Master Meat Lady in the back. I recall that it was during this time when I was introduced to a great amount of country music (it beat the musak that played through the store. One song in particular comes to mind: John Michael Montgomery’s “Be My Baby Tonight.” Is that the title or is it the tongue twisting refrain of:
Would ya, could ya, ain’t ya gonna, if I asked ya, would ya wanna be my baby tonight?
I still can’t remember how long it took me to get that lyric down. Forget the rest of the song. I would be quizzed every time I went to work. I think my fumbled lyrics were even more memorable than the real thing.
Sorry I could not find an official video. Everything else was karaoke versions.
