Music and writing are very different. I am no good at music, but I write a lot. Could I write a song? The lyrics, yes. The music, not so much. I lack a certain technical understanding and instinct.
If you play a Vince Gill song backwards you'll get a "I was not foolin' round on you" and some other kind of drinkin' song. He's in his own bad habit and needs to break out with some new ideas! (His last album was "Down to my last bad habit." There was an intended pun there.) And he really is a great talent. I just don't happen to like cheatin' and drinkin' song. I mean, there are plenty of other country themes. He could sing about gettin' run over by a train or something. Lots of country songs have someone getting run over by a train. ("Grandma got run over by a reindeer.")
