Freshly Squeezed Jukebox | Odd Chap ft. Ashley Slater - Come On! (Audio) 2024 #electroswing @FreshlySqueezedJukebox | Uploaded February 2024 | Updated October 2024, 14 hours ago.
ELECTRO SWING producer ODD CHAP has been joined by a series of distinctive vocalists building towards his full COLLABORATIONS album... OUT NOW: idol-io.ffm.to/collaborations
Available now on Limited Edition Green Vinyl! Get yours here: oddchap.bandcamp.com/album/collaborations
Here ASHLEY SLATER (Freakpower/Fatboy Slim/Loose Tubes) lends his unmistakable tenor voice (and trombone) to this slower tempo burner. Sounding like a modern take on vintage R&B (like an Oscar Brown Jr 'call and response') this is all the better for being darker and grittier than is often the case in the genre.
LYRICS:
He's just a boy
He doesn't know
Left or right
Which way he gotta go
My boy is lost and he's making mistakes
Temptation and he's chasing the snakes
The world is big
My guy is small
He's picking stories
But he can't read 'em all
Wanna give a hand but he don't wanna know
That boy needs someone to save his soul
Come on!
Lord save his soul, man
Come on!
Lord save his soul, man
Come on!
Yeah, Lord save his soul
Cos if you don't save him he gonna die in a hole
The moon goes down
The sun comes up
He doesn't see it
Cos he's all messed up
About to star in hell in a cell
I seen this before and it never ends well
Crime is crime
And time is time
He can't afford justice
So he's serving a dime
I wanna save his soul but I'm only a man
He nods when I'm talking but he don't understand
Come on!
Lord save his soul, man
Come on!
Lord save his soul, man
What you waiting for Lord
Come on!
If you don't save him he gonna die in a hole
Here's sorry story cautionary and bold
Keep your wits about you don't lose your hold
Just because it's shiny doesn't mean that it's gold
Gotta bust you out there so you get to grow old
Come on!
Come on!
Come on!
If you don't save him he'll die in a hole
Come on!
Come on!
Come on!
If you don't save him he gonna die in a hole
Come on!
