about

Written for my wife who sings backing vocals on this track and others on the album

lyrics

Three Quarter Time
You and Me
Don’t need much
No fancy clothes
And shoes and such.
You and me
Get along
For the cost of a melody,
The price of a song.

You and Me
We get by
We don’t get too low
Don’t get too high.
You and me
Can’t go wrong
With the cost of a melody,
The price of a song.

Chorus
Play me an old fashioned tune.
Sing me some sweet words that rhyme.
Stay with the harmony
Follow it through
Together with me
In three quarter time

You and Me
Go way back
We’ve had a journey
Been down the track.
You and me
Moving along
With the cost of a melody,
The price of a song.

You and Me
Well here we are
Through the years
We’ve come so far.
You and me
Are where we belong
For the cost of a melody,
The price of a song.

Chorus
Play me an old fashioned tune.
Sing me some sweet words that rhyme.
Stay with the harmony
Follow it through
Together with me
In three quarter time

SOLO

You and Me
We’ve seen it all.
Successes and setbacks
The rise and fall
You and me
We stood strong
With the cost of a melody,
The price of a song.

Chorus
Play me an old fashioned tune.
Sing me some sweet words that rhyme.
Stay with the harmony
Follow it through
Together with me
In three quarter time
