Holding my Margarita in the Cantina. Bridge Down in the Cantina where the kiotes call to me. There's flamenco on the breeze in the Cantina. Now I'm in the airport cue not a cactus in my view. I'm sorry to be leaving the Cantina. Oh man you should have see her. I was sitting nearer. Holding my Margarita in the Cantina. Though my Margaritas with me she traveling duty free. I'm taking her away from the Cantina. Far well to those desert sands I've come away a different man Yes I know I'll always miss the Cantina. Oh man you should have see her. I was sitting nearer.

Hi Bob. Nice relaxed song there.
Would have taken me a week at least!
Your voice and style always make me think of Marty Robbins.
Cheers.

Great to have something with a very unique South American/Mexican feel. Really worked nice.

Hello Trevor. I started this song with one individual track at a time. The result was what you hear. Normally I would steer away from this genre,thought it was worth the experiment. Rob.

Nice southwestern Marty Robbins groove and sound you have going here. Very cool and vivid imagery in the lyric. I do have to say that had I read the lyric before listening I wouldn't have known that a kiote was a coyote The mix sounds just right on the monitors for my ears and taste. You definitely have a good feel for different genres. Fun isn't it?! Very nice listen!! J&B PS: Five minutes? It takes me about that long to remember my PG Music password.

Nice song Rob! When you say this took 5 minutes, that doesn't include the time it took to write the lyrics, does it? But, whether it does or not, the ability to crank out good songs quickly is a pretty good indication of your comfort level with the software, and a pretty good testimony to BIAB as a rapid development system! On top of all the things I always like about your songs (your voice in particular) I liked the way you wrote the lyrics to suggest that Margarita might be a woman instead of a drink. Every time you mention "Margarita" the context supports both interpretations. I think that sort of thing adds a lot to any song. The song is straight-forward, and also a little bit obscure. It Keeps the audience wondering if you might mean something besides what you appear to be saying.
