Pinetop
de Dr. John
Keep the music simple
(Come on let's move)
Keep the music simple
(Put everybody in the groove)
Keep the music simple
(It'll make you jump and shout)
If you keep the music simple
(I know what I'm talking about)
You don't need a guitar player
Playin' no million licks
You know they got more to music, son
Than diggin' your licks
Don't need no drummer
Playin' all them rolls
Just stay on that back beat, son
And hold down the soul
(Ya got to)
Keep the music simple
(You can be sure)
Keep the music simple
(You'll get everybody up on the dance floor)
Keep the music simple
(And don't lose your cool)
Keep the music simple
(Now let me take you all back to school)
Find yourself a bass player
That can play it clean and smooth
And still be funky and hold down that groove
And tell that keyboard player
Don't be runnin' them ivories
With them devil 'in solos
You got to keep that music simple at ease
You got to keep the music simple
(You can feel free)
Just keep the music simple
(Sure to make it funky)
Keep the music simple
(You got to keep it fat)
Keep the music simple
(Hey, there is where the money's at)
Now bring in them horns players
Don't you be too hasty
Hit' em with two or three good licks
Just enough to be tasty
Now don't lighten up on the rhythm boys
Don't you all be late
Ya see how beautiful that sits
Now you all can modulate
If you really listen at the radio
You'll see it ain't no mystery
The key to a hit record is simplicity
Don't take my word for it
Just check out the big Top 10
Billboard and Cash Box and the records that make it in
Is the ones that
Keep the music simple
(It'll make you want to shout)
Keep the music simple
(Take it on home, you'll work it right out)
Keep the music simple
(Don't need no studio tricks)
Keep the music simple
(You can fix it in the mix)
