From the recording Distant Calling
This tune is a tribute to my guitar and the journey we've made together.
" She's real smooth and lengthy-you can call her Slim".
Lyrics
SLIM PICKIN’
Verse 1.
I’d like you to meet my guitar
She is my best friend
She’s real smooth and lengthy
You can call her Slim
My guitar and I
Will sing and mature together
We’ll blend into one
And end in a tonal eternal
Chorus 1.
Just like me she feeds on
Love and understanding
And of each other we are so
Demanding
Verse 2.
Hidden from view
She carries a tint of blue
Like the dreams
I’ve had of flying
She’s got the luck of Jupiter behind her
So we’ll shift and drift
While the road slips away
Chorus 2.
Her action is so red
And as keen as my heart
And when we work together
She likes to do her
thing (She hates a little swing)
Verse 3.
At times we keep
A little bit of distance
But resistance is a thing
We do without
We’re searchin’
For a little inspiration
We like to roll on by
And entertain
Chorus 3.
Just like me she feeds on
Love and understanding
And of each other we are so
Demanding (repeat)
Outro
She's demanding, amusing (repeat)
