Hi Al,
actually I don't do country - but then, Craig, one of my partners, manages to create country tunes to my lyrics, so maybe I'm not that far off? I checked a few lyrics from the guys you mention - who I didn't know. Well, I can do relationship stuff, I have a whole 'carpe diem' collection, yet - as far as I remember - I only wrote one 'typical' country text ("on the road"). You won't find bull riding or honky tonks in my lyrics.
I will publish my complete lyrics collection (proof read, modified, rewritten) in a couple of days. But you can check out my site before that, of course, to see, if a collab might make sense:
