Tony Joe White
3/4 Time
[Verse 1]
I like enchiladas and old El Dorados that shine
My old friend the guitar and songs and women and wine
They say I'm livin' too fast but I feel fine, yeah
And I just keep easin' along in three-quarter time

Sometimes I get sideways and stay up all night writin' songs
They say it ain't healthy, but somehow I keep goin' on. I do
I write what I feel and don't care if the damn thing don't rhyme, nah
Just gimme a C-chord and play it in three-quarter time, got it

[Chorus]
Whoa, it's a big old world and we all have to live our lives
And one thing's for sure: ain't none of us gonna get out alive, sorry

[Verse 2]
So while I'm still kickin', I'm gonna keep pickin' my tunes
I like what I'm doin' and I hope it don't end too soon
'Cause all of my life there's one thing I keep hopin' to find, oh yeah
A woman who likes to make love in three-quarter time

[Outro]
Well, what about 6/4? Or maybe 12/8? Or something like this...
