The Mauro Tapes 1. Grilli, non al bivio (Willin’ Cover)

Jack O’Malley con Mauro Tirannosauro ai cori ultrasonici, in una versione di schiena di Willin’ dei Little Feat, guardando verso sud.

Per capire il riferimento ai grilli è necessario o avere una conoscenza buona dei dintorni di Tatti (GR), dove il video è stato girato, o scrivere a micalosapevo@pibinko.org per delucidazioni.

I been warped by the rain
Driven by the snow
I’m drunk and dirty, don’t you know
And I’m still… willin’

And I was out on the road late at night
I seen my pretty Alice in every headlight
Alice, Dallas Alice

I’ve been from Tucson to Tucumcari
Tehachapi to Tonapah
Driven every kind of rig that’s ever been made
Driven the back roads
So I wouldn’t get weighed
And if you give me weed, whites, and wine
And you show me a sign
I’ll be willin’… to be movin’

Well, I’ve been kicked by the wind
Robbed by the sleet
Had my head stoved in
But I’m still on my feet
And I’m still… willin’

I smuggled some smokes
And folks from Mexico
Baked by the sun
Every time I go to Mexico
And I’m still…

And I been from Tucson to Tucumcari
Tehachapi to Tonapah
Driven every kind of rig that’s ever been made
Driven the back roads
So I wouldn’t get weighed
And if you give me weed, whites, and wine
And you show me a sign
I’ll be willin’… to be movin’
