Lyrics

BUT I DON'T KNOW

I WALKED OUT BY THE FIELD
AND LOOKED UP AT THE SKY
ASKED THE MOON MY QUESTION
WANTIN TO KNOW THE REASON WHY
BUT I DON'T KNOW
AND I PROB'LY NEVER WILL
BUT I MUSN'T WORRY-
AND LET IT GO AT WILL!

SOME FOLKS LIKE IT FAST
AND SOME FOLKS LIKE IT SLOW
SOME FOLKS WHEN YOU ASK'EM
THEY TELL THAT THEY DON'T KNOW
AND THEY DON'T KNOW
AND THEY PROB'LY NEVER WILL
BUT THEY MUSTN'T WORRY
AND LET IT GO AT WILL!

GUITAR SOLO

NOW FOLKS THEY BEEN A ASKIN ME
WHICH WAY TO GO
AND YOU KNOW WHAT I TELL'EM
I TELL'EM THAT I DON'T KNOW,
BUT I BOUGHT ME SOME WHITE SHOES WITH HIGH, HIGH, HEELS!
AND I AIN'T GONNA WORRY, NO I AIN'T GONNA WORRY, I AIN'T GONNA WORRY---
I'M GONNA LET IT GO AT WILL!
(LET IT GO AT YOU WILL!)
GUITAR CARRIES OUT
END

I liked the intro, caught my attention right away. Arrangement is very good. Good playing on the lead guitar! Vocal could have been more up front I had to concentrate to hear the words. Could be a matter of taste for me though. This song would go over well on radio.

What a cool song!! Just a great vibe that sucks you in and gets your toes tapping!! Love the laid back sound of the vocal and rhythms tracks....reminds me of the old days. Great guitar solo!! Like the LP sound before the song!

Instruementation was great as well as the arrangement and the instrumental solo's. Great job!
