Some Tunes From The Past On Wednesday

A few days ago I stumbled in to Paul Simonon's playlist on Spotify. Most of the songs were from days long gone. And it is a pleasure to listen to them again after ages. It is a eclectic compilation of songs long time ago and I think it is worth to feature them at my place. Rock 'n' Roll to all the ones that was borne too late.

Twanging Tuesday # 83

It's not a true twanging tune but it is one of my beloved rockabilly tunes. Released almost 50 years ago it is still a song that is still a mark in this kind of genre. Less artists could give the feeling of a man coming home after a long time to his beloved one. I know that I post it in a sentimental mood - but anyway it is a great song and it is still a pleasure to listen to it from time to time.

Get your face all pretty and your hair done right

Cause we're gonna do the town tonight

Well I'm comin' into town and right on time I still got your lovin' on my mind

I'm a coming home I gotta make some love

I'm a coming home sweet turtle dove

I'm a coming home to make sweet love to you

Well I see down the road there's a big truck stop

They got a pretty little waitress with the carrot top

She's pretty as a doll pretty as can be

But don't you worry honey she ain't nothin' to me

I'm a coming home I gotta make some love

I'm a coming home sweet turtle dove

I'm a coming home to make sweet love to you

Well I came to a hill and the truck looked down

Throwed in low and she's huggin' the ground

Scratchin' gears but I'm goin' again I'm comin' home baby I'm doggin' it in

I'm a coming home I gotta make some love

I'm a coming home sweet turtle dove

I'm a coming home to make sweet love to you

Get your face all pretty and your hair done right

Cause we're gonna do the town tonight

Well I'm comin' into town right on time I still got your lovin' on my mind

I'm a coming home I gotta make some love

I'm a coming home sweet turtle dove

I'm a coming home to make sweet love to you
