It's Just What I Do

[Pete C]

Well my first day in lock down at home has been productive. As my covers band can't play or rehearse for the foreseeable future our bass player Graham has started writing lyrics with a view to maybe adding a few originals to our set. I said I'd try to write the music for one so here's my first attempt. Only ever done one original song before for the Country Fest a few years ago. Any comments from you guys would be appreciated.

I like the old school punk vibe of this! Nice sounding guitars and catchy melody on the vocals. A ghost of Buzzcocks, imo...

Great job, gents!

[Greeny]

Love it! Captures the vibe of that late 70's post-punk, pub-rock golden era. Eddie and the Hot Rods, The Vapors, The Jags. Raw but melodic and chart ready. Honest and charming. It's really great!

[Greeny]

Back for more. It's brilliant.

[Jean Pierre]

I really like the rendering of the instruments is excellent.

and as Greeny  say

Captures the vibe of that late 70's post-punk, pub-rock golden era.

Can you copy the lyrics in the scrollable box for me, so I can better understand

Well my first day in lock down at home has been productive.

you always have to look on the bright side of things, sometimes confinement is a good thing!

JP - These are the lyrics. I had to remove one or two words to fit the melody and repeat a verse at the end as the song was a bit short.

Come on now honey
Let's scream and shout
If I share the secret
Will you show me what it's all about

You're just the cutest thing
That I've ever seen
Come on and hold me close
Yes, you make me want to jump and scream

We're so close, close, close together
Feel my heart beating for you forever
I'm going nowhere
Neither are you
I love ya honey - it's just what I do

Come on let's split baby
Let's hit the town
When you're with me honey
Ain't nothing gonna bring me down

You're just the cutest thing
That I've ever seen
Come on and hold me close
Yes, you make me want to jump and scream


We're so close, close, close together
Feel my heart beating for you forever
I'm going nowhere
Neither are you
I love ya honey - it's just what I do

We're so close, close, close together
Feel my heart beating for you forever
I'm going nowhere
Neither are you
I love ya honey - it's just what I do"

Guess what honey
I think you wanna do it too
