about

This is a fun song, we tried to make it sound as big as could without any drums. I play shows as a solo one-man band with a looper, guitar, bass, and foot percussion. This tune has those elements.

Ray Gennari produced, recorded, mixed and mastered the track. And he snuck in some tasty percussion....He is all over this album and I am lucky to have him!

Thanks to Jen "Cool Cocktails" Castilow for the graphic arts, doing way more work behind the scenes than she should!

Any time I get to play a Wah-Wah Pedal I'm happy, enjoy this tune and thanks for your support! Ted

lyrics

STILL GOT THE KEY

WHAT DID YOU SEE, WHEN YOU'RE IN MY DREAM
WAS IT FINE, OR DID WE SAID GOODBYE
IT'S NOT FAIR, THAT YOU STILL DARE, TO ENTER THERE
BUT I DON'T MIND, IT'S ONLY TIME, IT AIN'T NO CRIME

I DON'T REMEMBER , WHAT YOU SAID
BUT IT LED, TO A BIG EVENT
IT'S NOT FAIR, THAT YOU STILL DARE, TO ENTER THERE
BUT I DON'T MIND, IT'S ONLY TIME, IT AIN'T NO CRIME

AFTER 20 SOMETHING YEARS I CAN'T BELIEVE
AFTER 20 SOMETHING YEARS YOU'RE TELLING ME
AFTER 20 SOMETHING YEARS IT'S PLAIN TO SEE, IT'S GOTTA BE
YOU STILL GOT THE KEY

ONE LAST THING, BEFORE YOU SPLIT
ANY CHANCE, YOU'LL COME AGAIN
BECAUSE IT'S NOT FAIR THAT YOU STILL DARE, TO ENTER THERE
BUT I DON'T MIND, IT'S ONLY TIME, IT AIN'T NO CRIME
