Music by Roberto (robtob)
lyrics and vocals by oldrottenhead
lots of fun with sitar, tabla and flugelhorn* by me

Enjoy!

Alfredo

Oh give me
The simple life
Free
From complication
Show me
The easy way
The road
To my salvation
I've all i need
I don't need much
Someone to hold
Someone to love
A roof to keep
The rain off me
A place to live
A place to be
A garden
With the sun
Facing south
Some wood to burn
A line
And a hook
Cast my rod
And read my books
Some conversation
Songs to sing
A glass of beer
Or wine to drink
Some peace and quiet
Silent time
For self reflection
To clear my mind
I've all i need
I don't need much
Someone to hold
Someone to love
Some company
And friends around
No need to worry
We're safe and sound

* for this one I've made an extensive use of some iPad apps (WI Orchestra, SampleTank and DrumJam), driven by a YouRockGuitar. Lots of fun, really...

I think I will end up listening to this many, many times. It seems to carve out its own genre.

Really something.

Congrats.

Cool song!! Fantastic music by Roberto and Alfredo additions!!
The lyrics have the secret of human happiness, and as Bono (U2) says: "if something simple is good it's doubly good"
Bravo guys!!
Cheers
