MUSTANG BY RENU Verse 1 On a mustang In her dance shoes she would pose On accordian, I'd compose Pennies and love kept us afloat She was a girl and I was a man Verse 2 Senorita could never rest In search of what no-one knew Looking for love Was her move Looking for love (drag out) lips tightly sealed hips side to side no quips From my eyes Chorus oooooo oooooo Verse 3 This her story from the past This the age of suicide Her teenage lover He had died Strong in bed as she was too He shot himself with a gun She gazed at him He was done Blood and Brains on the floor Bullets there were 2 Verse 4 She left El Paso in the night Drugs and drink broke her man Looking for love Looking for love In her case she packed a gun In her case was the bible In her case she packed cigars In her case all was done. Chorus oooooo she was my senorita oooooo I was her man Instrumental with electric guitar solo Verse * 5 + Chorus *1 + 6/8 + 1 rest Verse 6 In a bar we had met She told me of her story I stared back, hit by love She was it I took her by the hand And led her to my mustang I couldn't promise her shiny diamonds But I could promise her all my love Chorus ooooo she was my woman ooooo I was her man Music Breakdown Rock breakdown Verse 7 oohs and aaahs Chorus ooooo she was my senorita ooooo I was her man Instrumental verse *8 + Chorus * 1 + 6/8 (extended)

We Rise 02:40
We Rise I live for nothing but you and your smile Keep me from going crazy We rise, we rise And we fall Down till we fly again I want for one thing Yours arms Take me to a place of safety You are my only True world For whom I breath again We rise, we rise And we fall Down till we fly again

about

Draw your curtains for an epic, psychedelic latin twisted rock opera journey into 'MIDNIGHT RADIO' Drawing influences from south/central America and Spain. A bombastic, gutsy album - a nod towards the continental '70's. Driving in a fast car along the Latin coast.
