Description
a few weeks ago, i finally got around to buying a ukelele. since they are in a weird tuning, i spent some time learning the chord patterns and improvising a few chords and this tune evolved. originally i had no intention of making a full recording of it. but, i did set up a mike and recorded a track just to hear what it would sound like. then i thought what if a add a few more ukes. now i'm starting to get into record mode. so i added symphony bass strings and cellos for some lower end. then i thought it needs a beat, so there i added some middle eastern drums. since i came so far i might as well add vocals. so that's the story of the song that wasn't going to be recorded.

Lyrics
Do What You Going To Do
like me to not really care
sometimes i'm quite aware
don't know what you're trying to say
i'll give it another day
pardon my french in what i said
shake the cobwebs from your head
i am only telling you now
since i've been there before
do what you're going to do
if that's what you really choose
no one will be there
to catch you
do what you're going to do
if that's what you really choose
no one will be there
the road you take is all your own
makes you weary to the bone
but i guess you will have to try
on how to just get by
do what you're going to do
but if i were in your shoes
i would walk the other way
that's all i can say
do what you're going to do
if that's what you really choose
no one will be there
to catch you
do what you're going to do
if that's what you really choose
no one will be there
it's the path you want to go
all i can say is take it slow
it's the path you want to go
be sure to put on a really good show
when you have crossed a lot of miles
in the faces of denial
you can always turn around
or stand your ground
turn the screws way to tight
something is bound to come loose
sometimes we win or lose
i'll leave it up to you
do what you're going to do
if that's what you really choose
no one will be there
to catch you
do what you're going to do
if that's what you really choose
no one will be there
like me to not really care
sometimes i'm quite aware
don't know what you're trying to say
i'll give it another day
pardon my french in what i said
shake the cobwebs from your head
i am only telling you now
since i've been there before
do what you're going to do
if that's what you really choose
no one will be there
to catch you
do what you're going to do
if that's what you really choose
no one will be there
the road you take is all your own
makes you weary to the bone
but i guess you will have to try
on how to just get by
do what you're going to do
but if i were in your shoes
i would walk the other way
that's all i can say
do what you're going to do
if that's what you really choose
no one will be there
to catch you
do what you're going to do
if that's what you really choose
no one will be there
it's the path you want to go
all i can say is take it slow
it's the path you want to go
be sure to put on a really good show
when you have crossed a lot of miles
in the faces of denial
you can always turn around
or stand your ground
turn the screws way to tight
something is bound to come loose
sometimes we win or lose
i'll leave it up to you
do what you're going to do
if that's what you really choose
no one will be there
to catch you
do what you're going to do
if that's what you really choose
no one will be there

Oh my! This is great! Your uke sound reminds me so much of McCartney's on Ram (my fav Paul solo record). The song you've written is charming and the arrangement is chock full of details and nuances that will hold a listeners attention and reveal new elements with each new listen. What I'm trying to say is........downloaded!
