You cant take it with you Ive lived my life of pleasure and pain. If you ask me now I'll tell you the same. You live your life try to do good. Perform deeds that are kind like any man would. You cant take it with you when you die. You cant take it with you and that's no lie. You cant take it with you its so profound. You cant take it with you to that hole in the ground. Bridge You cant take it with you when you die. You cant take it with you and that's no lie. You cant take it with you its so profound. You cant take it with you to that hole in the ground. Many a body lay in the grave. Waiting for their name to be called that day. The final trumpet calls - out aloud. Gonna wake you up from that hole in the ground You cant take it with you when you die. You cant take it with you and that's no lie. You cant take it with you its so profound. You cant take it with you to that hole in the ground. Bridge You cant take it with you when you die. You cant take it with you and that's no lie. You cant take it with you its so profound. You cant take it with you to that hole in the ground.

I especially liked the instrumental breaks and the occasional "oh-oh" background vocals. -- David Cuny My virtual singer development blog Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it.

This tune has so much life to it - from the Elvis-esque vocal performance, to the addictive groove, to the introspective lyrics. I love the way the beat kind of "shuffles" as well. Great work here - thanks for sharing! Cheers, Deryk
