Back To Being Me

Maybe I wrote this song for Aretha Franklin. Maybe I wrote it for Candi Staton. Either way, when I sing it I feel like a large black woman.

"I'm going back to being me" -- what a great line.

Nicely done. (I'd like to hear a real quiet organ in there!)

Or some Chuck Leavell piano.

Nice song!

Thanks for the feedback. Yes, acoustic guitar is totally inappropriate for the style of this song but it's all I've got here for now. Glad the spirit of the song is coming across though.

Large black woman, eh? How about you sound like Mick Jagger kickin it with me on the porch during an after-party. This is really good!
