Go ahead: try writing a Bill Withers song over AC/DC chords. It's fun.

Lyrics

It took a little while but I did it It took a little while to get done Give me just a minute, I'll get Started on another one It'll take a little while but I'll do it You gotta know it's true I can do it for me anytime Honey child, wanna do it for you

It'll take a little time but I'll do it I won't charge you a dime But you're gonna have t' be patient with me Good things take time, ya know I'm happy to help you get things done 'Cause doin's what I do, I mean, ya know I can do it for me anytime Honey child, wanna do it for you

It took a little time, but I did it Now that I've got it done Gonna take a little nap, but after that I'll get started on another one You thought it was a rumor Now you know it's true I can do it for me any time Honey child, let me do it for you

Ooh ooh, aw haw un huh Ooh ooh, aw haw un huh

This is great -- down and dirty (and done dirt cheap?) You nail the Bill Withers style, and I love that we don't know what it is that you're doin'! Good for you for getting it done, though!!

Bill Withers + AC/DC = Tom Petty, perhaps? I love it!

@andrewthewood oh man! the Tom Petty and Steve Earle influences are ever-present in my writing. Your equation is spot on!

So satisfying! "Cause doin's what I do" is my new anthem. Always fun to listen to your songs, Greg, and this one is a verified head-bobber.

@eas3637 Great to see you again, Erin. I had hoped I could come up with an anthem for you this year. Lucky me to have gotten to it straight away 🙃 Hey now! Thanks for checking out the song -- I'm glad to read you were head bobbing along.
