First ever Banjo track!

Play it here – I just wanna drive!
Here’s a brand new one for you! My first attempt at incorporating a banjo as a main hook in my adventures as a songwriter and producer.
Also featured in the above photo is my ’53 Les Paul, a 1950′s Harmony mandolin, Fender Jazz bass with flat wound strings and of course the banjo which all served well to bring this track to life. The banjo was actually given to me a couple of years ago so it was quite a novelty to put it to good use.
Again I’d like to thank Dean Wuksta for playing and recording the drums for me. The beauty of technology these days is that he records them in his studio and sends them to me over the net where I then import them into my software and get busy. Brilliant heh?
Play it here – I just wanna drive!
I just wanna drive

Ohh ohh ooh ooh
I just wanna drive
Hey hey ooh ooh
Ohh ohh I just wanna drive
When the world falls upon my shoulders
When the sky comes tumblin down
When the girl I love’s no longer lovin
When I cry and just wanna break down
I jump into my V8 Chevy
pump the gas til I’m outta sight
I take a long hard ride to the country
gonna leave all my troubles behind
never felt so happy drivin in the sun
not a care in the world when I’m havin fun
you might think it’s just plain ol motor car
but I’m laughin with the wind
I’m like a shootin star
Ohh ohh ooh ooh
I just wanna drive
Hey hey ooh ooh
Ohh ohh I just wanna drive
never felt so happy drivin in the sun
not a care in the world when I’m havin fun
you might think it’s just plain ol motor car
but I’m laughin with the wind
I’m like a shootin star
Now the sky’s all blue and I’m smiling
and I know it won’t take long
for the trouble I had ‘s all behind me
Now I ‘m singing this brand new song
Ohh ohh ooh ooh
I just wanna drive
Hey hey Ooh ooh
Ohh ohh I just wanna drive
adlib out…..
