Hi guys
Charles created this funky track and I took a run at adding lyrics and an organ solo.
Looking forward to your informed comments - am I swinging out of my wheel-house in this genre?
Thanks in anticipation..
Paul

When I was twenty I got to think I was a pretty tough dude
But Love, well love was pretty tough too
And one Saturday night - I was just itching for a fight
The time was right - to strike
I climbed into that ring with him
And I took my best swing at him
But he hit me with a shot to the head
Then he hit me with a shot to the heart!
And I went down
Yeah I went down for the count.
Couple years go by
I figured it was time to make another try
Saturday night
Time to fight
Set things right
chorus
Now if you ever have to take on Love
You come to me, and I'll give you some good advice
You gotta climb into that ring with him
And you gotta take your best swing at him
But watch out for those shots to the head
And watch out for those shots to the heart!
Or you'll go down
You'll go down
Yeah,
you'll go down for the count!
