Grinning Like I'm Winning

Description
I was lying on the beach in Waikiki last summer and wrote this song in about 30 minutes... Then I had the crazy thought I should shoot a music video to go with it... I had this little HD Flip cam with me and started getting footage.. At my gig that night, this gorgeous girl said she'd love to be my girl in the video... her name is Vivian Garcia, from CA. I love fun, rockin' uptempo modern country and this song fits the pocket for me. I'd absolutely be stoked to have a shot at this prize.
Lyrics
GRINNING LIKE I'M WINNING (Jeff Dayton) Look at that girl coming up the beach Can't believe she's aiming that smile at me Feels like something real good beginning I'm grinning like I'm winning She got Maybelline toes and Ray-Ban shades Honeydripping lips and a sweet sashay The closer she gets, the more my brain is spinning And I'm grinning like I'm winning She got a cute bikini tied up with a string She's working that walk like a backyard swing All the boys up and down the tiki bar can't help singing I'm grinning like I'm winning She's hotter than the sun over Waikiki Cooler than the shade of a banyan tree She's the best mess I've ever been in And I'm grinning like I'm winning repeat chorus The girl go by, the boys say hi The girl just smile, the boys say ay-ay-ay She's got a cool combination and a deadly mix Her island smile and her aloha kiss She could be a habit but I don't wanna kick it And everybody up and down the tiki bar, they're all singing Yea, come on, sing it I'm grinning like I'm winning I'm grinning like I'm winning
