Jambalaya (Mis-Demeanor)

Casia - Lyrics
Eddie Holmes - Composition
Scott W - Lead guitar
Raul R - Vocals
Rab - Mix

(V1)
Her name is Miss-Demeanor
A dark-haired senorita
When I saw those wild eyes
I knew I had to meet her

(Pre-chorus)
She took my heart
Tied it to a stake
Set me aflame
That's no mistake

(Chorus)
It's a Misdemeanor
What you've done to me   
A misdemeanor
When you pulled me from the deep, deep freeze 
A Misdemeanor
Now I'm cooking
Mixed into Jambalaya
Oh, Miss-demeanor
I'm Jamba, Jamba, Jambalaya

(Bridge)
Just take one bite
Take a bite
And Baby you'll know 
You will know
I burn from the inside
My heart in tow

(V2)
Just cut up some peppers
Throw in oregano
Pour on the hot sauce
And oh I'm ready to go

(Pre-chorus)
She took my heart
Tied it to a stake
Set me aflame
That's no mistake

(Chorus)
Itsa Misdemeanor
What you've done to me 
A misdemeanor
When you pulled me from the deep freeze
A Misdemeanor
Now I'm cooking
Mixed into Jambalaya
Oh, Miss-demeanor
I'm Jamba, Jamba, Jamba, Jambalaya

(Bridge)
Just take one bite -
Take a bite
And Baby you'll know -
You will know
I burn from the inside
My heart in tow

Oh, what have you done to me
Miss-Demeanor
Pulled me from the deep freeze
Miss-Demeanor
Misdemeano, misdemeanor, Oh, oh, oh

(Chorus)
Itsa Misdemeanor
What you've done to me - 
A misdemeanor
When you pulled me from the deep freeze -
A Misdemeanor
Now I'm cooking
Mixed into Jambalaya
Oh, Miss-demeanor
I'm Jamba, Jamba, Jamba, Jambalaya

I love this. Nice African/Latin feel... It needs just some guitar licks all the way  :D

Sweet!

(We need a "thumbs up" smiley!   ;) )

And I agree with Paulo - a nice smooth jazz guitar all the way thru would be the spicing on the cake.   8)

Very nice! Good groove and very well put together :) Shades of Steely Dan a little. Added guitar would be excellent!
