   I'LL LET THE JUKEBOX DO MY TALKIN'

Friday night is here again, and I'm not hard to find
I'm back in this honky-tonk, and there's a reason why
She'll be here before too long, I hope she'll look for me
Tonight I'll tell her how I feel, and I won't have to speak

     I'll let the jukebox do my talkin'
     and by George I'll win her heart
     I'll pick A-5, "Check Yes or No"
     - That's a real good place to start
     I'm too shy to tell her
     that I feel this way
     So I'll put money in the slot
     and let the music play
     I'll let the jukebox do my talkin'

Met her here two months ago, now we dance all the time
But when I try to ask her out, all I can do is smile
My heart pounds inside my chest whenever we get close
Tonight I think I've found a way I can let her know

     I'll let the jukebox do my talkin'
     and by George I'll win her heart
     I'll pick A-5, "Check Yes or No"
     - That's a real good place to start
     I'm too shy to tell her
     that I feel this way
     So I'll put money in the slot
     and let the music play
     I'll let the jukebox do my talkin'

     I'll let the jukebox do my talkin'
     and by George I'll win her heart
     I'll pick A-5, "Check Yes or No"
     - That's a real good place to start
     I'm too shy to tell her
     that I feel this way
     So I'll put money in the slot
     and let the music play
     I'll let the jukebox do my talkin'

     I'll let the jukebox do my talkin'

Tresa Street's Bio

     Tresa Street is a singer, songwriter, and performer, born in the south and raised in the small country town of Portland, Tennessee. Her roots are about as country as you can get. As a young girl she discovered her love of music, not just Country music, but all music. All through her teenage years she developed her unique singing and writing talent and today she is living her dream.
Her mother lays claim that Tresa sang before she could talk. At the tender age of three, Tresa began singing in church, where her great grandfather preached and she also sang at all the local fairs and festivals. While doing that Tresa explored all kinds of musical styles, and fell in love with them all. Country Music being her heart of hearts. A radio DJ once read that she said her musical heroes were Tammy Wynette, Loretta Lynn, along with Tina Turner and Cher. When he asked her how could this be possible, Tresa explained that she admires all these women, not only for their talent and music, but because, through good times and bad, they stuck to their dream. Their music like hers, comes straight from the heart. When Tresa sings a love song, such as her radio single “Naturally", you know she's singing about a real true love. When she gets rowdy and sings the somewhat humorous country Blues song “Rockin' A Baby” , about a man that just won't grow up, you somehow know she has been there, done that. She tells of her dreams and thousands of others just like her, in her recording of the timeless “I Believe I Can Fly”. Then turns around and rocks the house on “Wild About You”. Her music, like Tresa herself, is the real deal. Her producer has created a musical style that is fresh and new and compliments her own personal style. You won't find a lot of meaningless politically correct fluff, just true blue emotion set to music. Tresa is a true female singer, songwriter, and performer. She has lived, loved, laughed and cried. She has known the joy of true love, she has felt the ecstasy of passion and she has suffered the pain of losing. When she writes it's from the heart, when she sings it's from her soul. You will seldom ever hear her sing or write in the third person, that is to say about "other people". There is not a lot of she, her, they, or them in her songs. She is always about ; I, our, my and us.
So, whether you're young or old, like Country music, Pop or even the Blues, you're going to love Tresa & her music. Her modern country style of writing is about love, romance and life that everyone can relate to. If you haven't had the opportunity to hear her music or see her perform, we are sure that when you do, you will become an instant Tresa Street fan. She is truly an original!

We wrote this at Tresa's place, north of Hendersonville back in 1996.  One or two sessions . . . I think it was just one though  . . . I remember it coming pretty easily . . . it was her title, we worked the lyric together as I put music to it.  This was a lot of fun to write, and it was the only song that we wrote together.   Interesting Story:  Tresa once wrote a bluegrass song that her friend Bill Munroe was going to record . . . she even had the joy of hearing him sing it backstage at the Grand Ole Opry with some other huge bluegrass stars jamming along . . . he was going to record it on his next album, and then . . . he passed away before recording another album!   - Jeff
