https://www.reverbnation.com/doughealeya Shak a Lak I dream the radio up at night A super sonical scene yeah I dream the radio up at night A metaphysical stream Lord I hear the tippy tippy tapping and the timing is right To a tall tale melody I got a Tina Turner petting on her microphone Jimmy burning his guitar for me Sippin sippin salty dogs and sasaphrass Bout as happy as a man can be So far gone I'm never lookin back Gonna have a good time livin in a shack Lion in the woods snake up in a tree Got a lot to learn from the birds and the bee Shake it all off its just another day Listen to the nighttime you can hear it say A Shak a Lak a little itty oh Another celebration then I gotta go I dream the radio up at night In crystal Aqua marine yeah I dream the radio up at night A brilliant music machine Lord I hear a trippy zippy counterpuntal elaboration Of ecstatic static harmony I gotta mambo jombo jamming on a slide trombone And an Ozzy didgeridoo do we Shakin makin lemon Rickies in the rooi grass Lazin underneath the strawberry tree So far gone I'm never lookin back Gonna have a good time livin in a shack Lion in the woods snake up in a tree Got a lot to learn from the birds and the bee Shake it all off its just another day Listen to the nighttime you can hear it say A Shak a Lak a little itty oh Another celebration then I gotta go

Thanks folks for your kind and entertaining remarks... I'm not very happy with the way this one turned out. I felt like I needed to redo it but didn't want to put any more effort into this one. It was like birthing a rhinoceros horn first... Ha! Doug

Doug, I really like this one, and I think it turned out great! Not sure what you don't like about it. It has a cool funk feel and I really liked the strings in it. That made it feel Barry White ish. Cool stuff!
