I'm Finding It Harder To Be A Gentleman - White Stripes Cover
Playing drums and guitar at the same time.
I was left at home unsupervised. This is the sort of thing that happens when that occurs. Overdubbed one more stereo track of the lead vocal with shakers! The acoustic has an L. R. Baggs pickup and is run into a Vox ToneLab ST pedal. Mixed in Digital Performer.
Original Artist: The White Stripes
Album: White Blood Cells
Lyrics:
Well I'm finding it harder to be a gentleman every day
all the manners that I've been taught have slowly died away
and if I held the door open for you It wouldn't make your day
You think that I care about me and only me
when every little girl needs help climbing up a tree.
I know it don't take much to satisfy me
Maybe it's whatever's in my hand that's distracting me
but if i could find emotion to stimulate devotion
well then you'd see
Well I'm finding it hard to say that I need you twenty times a day
I feel comfortable so baby why don't you feel the same?
have a doctor come and visit us and tell us which one is sane
Well I never said I wouldn't throw my jacket in the mud for you
but my father gave it to me so maybe I should carry you
then you said "You almost dropped me"
so then I did and I got mud on my shoes
