((( TAKE IT TO THE LIMIT )))

All alone at the end of the of the evening

And the bright lights have faded to blue

I was thinking 'bout a woman who might have

Loved me and I never knew

You know I've always been a dreamer

(spent my life running 'round)

And it's so hard to change

(Can't seem to settle down)

But the dreams I've seen lately

Keep on turning out and burning out

And turning out the same

So put me on a highway

And show me a sign

And take it to the limit one more time

You can spend all your time making money

You can spend all your love making time

If it all fell to pieces tomorrow

Would you still be mine?

And when you're looking for your freedom

(Nobody seems to care)

And you can't find the door

(Can't find it anywhere)

When there's nothing to believe in

Still you're coming back, you're running back

You're coming back for more

So put me on a highway

And show me a sign

And take it to the limit one more time

Take it to the limit

Take it to the limit

Take it to the limit one more time

((( RIO: DURAN DURAN )))

Moving on the floor now babe you're a bird of paradise

Cherry ice cream smile I suppose it's very nice

With a step to your left and a flick to the right you catch that mirror way out west

You know you're something special and you look like you're the best

Her name is Rio and she dances on the sand

Just like that river twisting through a dusty land

And when she shines she really shows you all she can

Oh Rio, Rio dance across the Rio Grande

I've seen you on the beach and I've seen you on TV

Two of a billion stars it means so much to me

Like a birthday or a pretty view

But then I'm sure that you know it's just for you

Her name is Rio and she dances on the sand

Just like that river twisting through a dusty land

And when she shines she really shows you all she can

Oh Rio, Rio dance across the Rio Grande

Hey now woo look at that did she nearly run you down

At the end of the drive the lawmen arrive

You make me feel alive, alive alive

I'll take my chance cause luck is on my side or something

I know what you're thinking I tell you something I know what you're thinking

Her name is Rio and she dances on the sand

Just like that river twists across a dusty land

And when she shines she really shows you all she can

Oh Rio, Rio dance across the Rio Grand

Her name is Rio she don't need to understand

And I might find her if I'm looking like I can

Oh Rio, Rio hear them shout across the land

From mountains in the north down to the Rio Grande

Do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do

((( ROCK ON )))

Hey kid, rock and roll

Rock on, ooh, my soul

Hey kid, boogey too, did ya

Hey shout, summertime blues

Jump up and down in my blue suede shoes

Hey kid, rock and roll, rock on

And where do we go from here

Which is the way that's clear

Still looking for that blue jean, baby queen

Prettiest girl I ever seen

See her shake on the movie screen, Jimmy Dean

(James Dean)

[Instrumental Interlude]

And where do we go from here

Still looking for that blue jean, baby queen

Prettiest girl I ever seen

See her shake on the movie screen, Jimmy Dean

((( MY DJANGO REINHARDT GIFT TO THE WORLD )))

MY DJANGO REINHARDT GIFT TO THE WORLD

It's a difficult thing to describe. All other Jazz guitarists do not interest me. Okay, maybe George Benson from the 'Breezing' years. However, Django Reinhardt holds a very special place in my heart that is not logical or reasonable. I feel it is Django's spirit that keeps people excited about the Gypsy Jazz guitar style he pioneered.

These are not the original versions of the songs. I suggest you go to YouTube to listen to the original versions for reference. This special play along album is created as a free gift for people I especially like. It is created for all guitarists who want EQ juiced up, extended Django Reinhardt Gypsy Jazz songs to jam with that have no other lead instruments to have to defer to.

((( THE LOOK OF LOVE - DUSTY SPRINGFIELD )))

The look of love is in your eyes

A look your smile can't disguise

The look of lo-ove is saying so much more than just words could ever say

And what my heart has heard, well it takes my breath away

I can hardly wait to hold you, feel my arms around you

How long I have waited

Waited just to love you, now that I have found you

Don't ever go You've got the

Look of love, it's on your face

A look that time can't erase

Be mine toni-ight, let this be just the start of so many nights like this

Let's take a lover's vow and then seal it with a kiss

I can hardly wait to hold you, feel my arms around you

How long I have waited

Waited just to love you, now that I have found you

Don't ever go

Don't ever go

I love you so

I love you so

I love you so

*Sung in Honor of Dusty Springfield
This 'breathy' kind of singing is not easy to do properly
I use this song as a special exercise in the technique

((( CANARY IN A COALMINE )))

First to fall over when the atmosphere is less than perfect

Your sensibilities are shaken by the slightest defect

You live you life like a canary in a coalmine

You get so dizzy even walking in a straight line

You say you want to spend the winter in Firenza

You're so afraid to catch a dose of influenza

You live your life like a canary in a coalmine

You get so dizzy even walking in a straight line

Canary in a coalmine

Canary in a coalmine

Canary in a coalmine

Now if I tell you that you suffer from delusions

You pay your analyst to reach the same conclusions

You live your life like a canary in a coalmine

You get so dizzy even walking in a straight line

Canary in a coalmine

Canary in a coalmine

Canary in a coalmine

First to fall over when the atmosphere is less than perfect

Your sensibilities are shaken by the slightest defect

You live your life like a canary in a coalmine

You get so dizzy even walking in a straight line

Canary in a coalmine...

*New Karaoke Song

NOTE:

When I was a kid this version of the Temptations hit

came as a real shock. White guys are not supposed

to be able to recreate a Temptations hit this well.

It's about time I learned it

I want to thank the spirit of Dusty Springfield

It was her version, in a documentary,

that inspired me to get the Karaoke Rare Earth version

((( I ONLY WANT TO BE WITH YOU )))

I don't know what it is that makes me love you so

I only know I never want to let you go

'Cause you've started something

Oh, can't you see?

That ever since we met

You've had a hold on me

It happens to be true

I only want to be with you

It doesn't matter where you go or what you do

I want to spend each moment of the day with you

Oh, look what has happened with just one kiss

I never knew that I could be in love like this

It's crazy but it's true

I only want to be with you

You stopped and smiled at me

And asked if I'd care to dance

I fell into your open arms

And I didn't stand a chance

Now listen honey

I just want to be beside you everywhere

As long as we're together, honey, I don't care

'Cause you've started something

Oh, can't you see?

That ever since we met

You've had a hold on me

No matter what you do

I only want to be with you

Oh, oh, you stopped and you smiled at me

And asked if I'd care to dance

I fell into your open arms

And I didn't stand a chance

Now hear me tell you

I just want to be beside you everywhere

As long as we're together, honey, I don't care

'Cause you've started something

Oh, can't you see?

That ever since we met

You've had a hold on me

No matter what you do

I only want to be with you

I said no matter, no matter what you do

I only want to be with you

((( ROOTS AND WINGS )))

I got red dirt stains on my boots and jeans

Calloused fingers from my guitar strings

Wild like the wind in the tall pine trees

(and I wear, Mother Nature's ring)

Cause I got roots and I got wings

I raise my glass on a Saturday night

(Give all my love, at performance time)

I thank the Lord above on my Sunday drive

(and thank the Lord, for the weather fine)

For Daddy’s hands and Mama's dreams

(and I wear, Mother Nature's ring)

He gave me roots she gave me wings

(Cause I've got roots, and I've got wings)

He said run on love and run on life

And plant some seeds until you're tired

(Give all your love until you're tired)

And don't take anything at all for granted

She said raise your hands and raise your babies (voice)

Be yourself and never change it

(Be yourself, now, it's your choice)

Be everything you ever wanna be

(You can be anything you wanna be)

He said run on love and run on life

And plant some seeds until you're tired

(Give all your love until you're tired)

And don't take anything at all for granted

She said raise your hands and raise your babies (voice)

Be yourself and never change it

(Be yourself, now, it's your choice)

Be everything you ever wanna be

(You can be anything you wanna be)

I saddle up when I get down

Sing every night in a different (country) town

And I've got a man who wears my ring

(And I wear Mother Nature's ring)

And I got roots and I got wings

Yeah I got roots I got wings

MY VERSION

I got lingerin pain from my rehearsing

Calloused fingers from my guitar strings

But I wear, Mother Nature's ring

Cause I've got roots and I've got wings

Give all my love, at performance time,

And thank the Lord, for the weather fine,

Yes I wear Mother Nature's ring

Cause I've got roots, and I've got wings

I run on love and run on life,

Give all my love feel like I've died

I don't take anything at all for granted.

I raise my hands and raise my voice,

Can be myself, now, it's my choice,

I can be anything I want to be.

I saddle up, when I get down,

I sing my songs, in this country town,

And I wear Mother Nature's ring

Cause I got roots, and I've got wings

Yeah I've got roots, and I've got wings
