C#
This is a song I wrote back in 1985,
Ab
and I've sung it many, times.
And a couple months ago,
C#
a guy named Rene Ruiz
from a vocal group called Toxic Audio
saw me do this at Birdland in New York,
and he said, you know,
you ought to write a version of that song for a man to sing,
because men have done stupid things
in the name of love too. Is that right?
Testify, testify, gentlemen.
So I finally finished it,
and I'm gonna try it out on you.
Tell me if I'm on the right track.
This is called,
Good Thing She Can't Read My Mind,
A Dude's Eye View.
