OP Mike. R. Apprentice Joined: Aug 2011 Posts: 289 Cumbria - United Kingdom	Twistin' Down The Highway A Twisting, Rock 'n' Roll foot tapper. Uses the Hang Ten style for the drums and bass. Other guitars and vocals - me (vocals dry at the moment). Verse I’m a twisting down the Highway an’ I’m twisting past the block All the way down from St Louis On my way to ”Little Rock” Find a job down by the river Find some whiskey on the dock Verse 2 Well, there aint no time for sleeping Gotta keep on drivin’ through Goodbye to ol’ Missouri It’s been fun knowin’ you I never stopped at Memphis I just kept twisting through. Bridge 1 I gotta keep on goin’ Like a drivin’ man machine Got a mojo in my pocket Twenty dollars in my jeans [Instrumental] Verse 3 I should have gone to Clarksdale Should have found a place to hide I should have gone down into Clarksdale And took my shotgun by my side But that’s the life I’m running from I’ve gotta have my pride Bridge 2 I gotta keep on goin’ Like a drivin’ man machine Got a mojo in my pocket Twenty dollars in my jeans Verse 4 Now my Journey's ending The City lights I see I hope you're not offended By a guy like me I twist around from town to town Hope my troubles don’t follow me Verse 5 I've reached my destination There’s a dryness in my mouth Is this the place that’s meant for me Should I keep driving South Is this the place that’s meant for me Should I keep driving South Is this the place that’s meant for me Should I keep driving South Cheers.

You can find my music at: www.herbhartley.com Add nothing that adds nothing to the music. You can make excuses or you can make progress but not both. The magic you are looking for is in the work you are avoiding.

I came across this style pretty much accidentally and BIAB had the backing up and running in no time at all. So impressed with the range and speed that you can get songs together with this program.

They are from the Hang Ten Style. I'm toying with the idea of writing a few more track in that style. Cheers. Mike. Mike.
