Groove Dat Pie
A song about enjoying your weekend after a long week of working just to pay some rich guy's bills.
It is presented here with Band in a Box, Reaper, Cakewalk, EZDrummer and Ozone 11. Dave Bell of Blue Attitude played guitar, Bill Davis played the washboard and sang harmony. I added bass, guitar, and vocals, which is a neat trick in a live recording. Speaking of... HERE'S A PAGE EXPLAINING THE AUDIENCE REACTIONS.

Groove Dat Pie
I'm filled with gumbo and headin' into town.
Gotta catch the groovey train and see who's gettin' down.
I worked all week in the rythnm of the grind.
Gotta clear those cobwebs from my mind.
Groove dat pie, melodious fish fry. Groove dat pie.
Slice me off a piece o' dat New Orleans beat.
Gotta taste that groovy pie, That rhythm sounds sweet.
I worked all week, and felt my life would end.
Gonna feel alive once again.
Groove dat pie, that good ol'
NOLA pie. Groove dat pie.
I hear that rhyhtm and my feet just got to dance.
That's why I come into this town on weekend nights.
The music's never over cuz we won't give it a chance.
We dance all night then through daylight.
(Groove dat Groove dat Groove dat pie groo-grove dat
Groove dat Groove dat Groove dat pie groo-grooooove)x2
I work all week just to pay some rich guy's bills.
On weekends I just want to fly.
I worked alone in the dead night, so now I wanna groove dat pie.
Last line: Groove dat pie, that good ol' second line. Groove dat pie.
