Hi musical colleagues,

I have made two songs, On the go and Wild times. I treat them in separate posts, so don't worry.
The song in this post is based on an real situation. My son went to Mexico. Actually both my sons did, but this one fell in love and not only with that country.
So within a month he will be there for the fourth time and so I made a song of this proces:https://soundcloud.com/user-296497130/on-the-go-to-mexico
Of course I hope that it will change his mind, but what is stronger, love or a song?

I used the funky style from BB called Muzzle. The tempo is 110.
I used 2607 (a slap bass), 1436 (funky guitar), Drums, Modern Funk 16th, 3251 (bariton guitar), 3261 (cello, chops), and 2526 (keyboard, el.). In my Daw I had 2 tracks with Latin loops and 2 tracks for my keyboard with Blocks (Native instruments).
Hope you can enjoye this song...

Lyrics:
On the go (to Mexico)
(c) HWBerkhout, june 2019

I went abroad, for fun I thought
Then met that girl who made me swirl
And back home, on my own
I sure got mad, cause she is in my head, so...

I will grabb my things, buy me wings
With that transfer I should see her
One last farewell to all my friends
Then I go to Mexico

It felt so bad, at least I'm sad
Every day she's more away
And back home, on my own
No I felt silly without my Lilly, so...

I grabb my things, buy me wings
With that transfer I should see her
Farewell sounds mad to my mom and dad
But I gotta go to Mexico

Only at work I say no word
Without a trace I leave that place
It'll take a while to get back my smile
But I gotta go to Mexico

And back home I have that stone
Can I settle, I said, without regret?

Don't talk no Spanish
Drink no tequilla
I have no money
am no guerilla, So? but...

-2x-
(Yes) I will grabb my things, buy me wings
With this transfer I (will) should see her
I got to go to let her know
I'm on the go to Mexico
