This started out as a sketch in Realband, but I had this riff in mind which I couldn't do with RTs, so I moved into Powertracks and played most of in the hard way. There's an acoustic rhythm RT left in, but most everything else got changed. The story-line might sound a trifle familiar?

DON'T YOU EVER (MESS WITH ME)
Just an evil Casanova, just a wolf that's on the prowl
He stalked the bars and discos and at night you'd hear him growl
That he was looking for a victim who was looking for a thrill
When he saw this girl up dancing, he moved in for the kill
Yes he did.

She was dressed from top to toe in a cloak of flaming red
And at the back was a little hood which she pulled up on her head
She looked so cute, she looked so sweet, as she danced the night away
But when she pulled the hood back, the wolf could hear her say
"Don't you ever, mess with me
No don't you ever, mess with me."

Oh he gave his heart away
Oh there's gonna be a price to pay

He danced up close beside her. then he reached and took her arm
He'd never seen a girl who could hold out against his charm
But Red was not the kind of girl who ever lost her head
She took his arm and twisted, til he howled and then she said
"Don't you ever mess with me
No don't you ever mess with me."

As usual, very grateful for anyone who has the time to listen.

Cheers, ROG.
