Hi all. Just a simple little folk tune. All comments welcome.
You cant take it with you

Ive lived my life of pleasure and pain.
If you ask me now I'll tell you the same.

You live your life try to do good.
Perform deeds that are kind like any man would.

You cant take it with you when you die.
You cant take it with you and that's no lie.
You cant take it with you its so profound.
You cant take it with you to that hole in the ground.

Bridge

You cant take it with you when you die.
You cant take it with you and that's no lie.
You cant take it with you its so profound.
You cant take it with you to that hole in the ground.

Many a body lay in the grave.
Waiting for their name to be called that day.
The final trumpet calls - out aloud.
Gonna wake you up from that hole in the ground


You cant take it with you when you die.
You cant take it with you and that's no lie.
You cant take it with you its so profound.
You cant take it with you to that hole in the ground.

Bridge

You cant take it with you when you die.
You cant take it with you and that's no lie.
You cant take it with you its so profound.
You cant take it with you to that hole in the ground.
You cant take it with you to that hole in the ground.

Spiff! I love that Elvis vibe you've got going.

I especially liked the instrumental breaks and the occasional "oh-oh" background vocals.

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?

I can't take it with me when I die but it's likely to make it to my car stereo. Very enjoyable listen.

Very cool chord progression on this tune. Excellent choice of backtracks. Your vocal sits in the song just perfect. Mandolin solo was excellent as well

Good one, Rob!
This has a timeless quality... rather like the song`s message.
Your choice of style, and arrangements lifts the mood from preachy to catchy - love the fiddle break and the background vocals.

Really well done, Rob smile The mandolin was a fantastic addition. This tune has so much life to it - from the Elvis-esque vocal performance, to the addictive groove, to the introspective lyrics. I love the way the beat kind of "shuffles" as well.

Great work here - thanks for sharing!

Excellent work, Rob. I love the sentiment, lyrics, and the first class vocals and harmonies. Then there's the rhythm, the instrumental parts, well all of it really! And a great job on engineering and mixing.
