C U Around
Javolenus
Here’s a rough demo (everything done off the bat, without rehearsal) of a song I just wrote. I’ll add stems and paste the lyrics below. The song is for all those who have lost—and who will lose—jobs, income, homes, family, friends, lives, due to the current economic/financial crisis. If any other vocalist wants to cover this that’s fine by me—stems added. Ideally, the song needs to mature a bit, but just wanted to demo the basic idea.
C U AROUND (C Minor/128bpm)
Hard miles with hard smiles
As I walk this lonely road.
Sun baking, feet aching
Now I’m a long way from home.
No money for my honey
Don’t wanna drag my baby down.
Tough rolls* for soft souls
So I’m quitting town—see you around.
* Tough rolls = i.e. of the dice.
