Drinking cold coffee from paper cups
I'm a natural born lover
When it comes to you
Well, I see you sitting in your little Ford Coupe
Sail on, baby and shake it all lose
I'm a natural born lover
When it comes to you
Well, hauling on your mind, you walk and talk so fine
'Cause I'm a natural born lover, can't love any other
I never can recover
When it comes to you
What you got makes me grind my gears
Ain't no other girl who pictures so clear
I'm a natural born lover
When it comes to you
You make me crazy popping out my clutch
Then you start to shake your little such and such
I'm a natural born lover
When it comes to you
I've been on the prowl in my Clipper Deluxe
Drinking canned juice from paper cups
I'm a natural born lover
When it comes to you
I'm a natural born lover
When it comes to you
I'm a natural born lover
When it comes to you

| AndyJ (Oregon) | Posted: Jan 05, 2012 - 16:24 Great-good song.... Too much truth for one man's lifetime... Charlie is also good with his presentation. Lots of truth in every couplet. Thanks |

Did you take pictures? Envy-envy-envy... |

I am a huge Alejandro fan and love this song. This great list just shows what a fabulous songwriter Alejandro is. He is also a MUST SEE LIVE SHOW!!! Thankfully his health is better now. He looked really good when I saw him in July. He even got St. Louis off their chairs!! |

| WonderLizard (2,755.46 mi. due east of Paradise) | Posted: May 31, 2011 - 09:27 Only Musselwhite could turn Escovedo into a slow burning Chicago blues grind. Oh, lordy, does this cook. |
| DJ03DJJ (Manchester U.K.) | Posted: May 08, 2011 - 19:26 Very smooth |
| Cynaera (South of Neanderthal) | Posted: Apr 24, 2011 - 15:28 I'ma have to invest in this CD - I love Alejandro Escovedo (his song "Guilty" is up there on my top ten favorite songs list), and Mr. Musselwhite's rendition of this song is ragged, informal, and just perfect. Doin' a lot of dancin' today, Bill - is it because it's Rebecca's birthday? I hope you took her someplace very nice, spent bucketloads of money on her, and let her know that everyone worships her. What? You didn't? She wanted WHAT? Well, geez - I guess saving Paradise a person at a time could be a lot of fun. Thanks to both of you for all the great music I really can't afford but buy anyway. You are the best "bad influence" I've ever had. |

| Proclivities (Carrboro, NC) | Posted: Sep 07, 2010 - 08:41 zenhead wrote: inspiration for tom wait's "bone machine?" It's more like the other way around: Alejandro Escovedo first released this song in 1999, and Charlie Musselwhite did so in 2004. Tom Waits released Bone Machine in 1992. Musselwhite has recorded with Tom Waits on more than one occasion as well. |
