Hi all
A bit late on this one, but I wen't through half a dozen storylines before opting for this one...
This is a good foot stomping rock anthem....lots of dry ice and latex... :?
Black Beauty
Run my hand behind her neck
Fingers rub across her fret
Hold her gently hold her right
Play with me all through the night
She's been around since fifty four
But if I stop she still cries out for more
My Black Beauty likes to have some fun
And she has seen her share of action
Me and my Les Paul
We have ball
Just me a six strings
It says it all
Crank up the volume
I'll make her sing
Black Beauty
Will make the door bell ring
She had two pickups I was her third
And from the start she sung like a bird
I lost my mind when she was on my neck
Forgot about the zeros on the cheque
Now I'm a hero in a rock and roll band
Been many others that I've held in my hand
But when fans ask to play my favourite song
Put on Black Beauty because we belong (and we play along)
Every day we'd have a ball, just me and Les and Paul
Rockin from dawn right through to dusk
Can't hear the neighbours they don't make fuss....
Me and my Les Paul
We have ball
Just me a six strings
It says it all
Crank up the volume
I'll make her sing
Black Beauty
Will make the door bell ring
Thanks for reading.
Rock on!

Dylan,
Reads well :D Pretty straight forward.....some nice lines "She had two pickups I was her third"....."Forgot about the zeros on the cheque"
Two lines seem in conflict.....Will make the door bell ring AND Can't hear the neighbours they don't make fuss....Maybe I don't understand "Will make the door bell ring" I thought it meant neighbors would be complaining....but maybe party goers wanting to join in ?
One stereo type you could possibly play up is the idea of rockers not committing to relationships, but the singer saying Black Beauty is the one he's had the longest relationship/commitment to in his life :roll:
....now you just need a killer guitar lick and you're good to go :wink:

Well, I guess that rules me out of the playing....
Thanks for taking the time to have a look at this one... I reckon it could be a good one.
It's taken quite a long time to write this one, but I didn't give up, and now I'm glad I didn't (can't have you getting one-up on me anyways, can I :roll: )
Rock on!
