The Miami Lighthouse for the Blind

James L.Knight Center in Miami,Florida,1999

Lyrics :

I like enchilados and old El Dorados that shine
And old friend the guitar and songs,and women,and wine
They say that I'm livin to fast but I'm feelin' fine (I feel alright)
And I just keep easin' along in 3/4 time

Sometimes I get sideways and stay up all night writin songs
They say it ain't healthy but somehow I keep goin on (I do)
I write what I feel and don't care if the damn thing don't rhyme(that's alright)
Just gimme a 'C' chord and play it in 3/4 time

Chorus:

It's a big old world and we all have to live out our lives
One thing's for sure ain't none of us gonna get out alive(I'm sorry about that)
So while I'm still kickin I'm gonna keep pickin my tunes
I like what I'm doin and I hope it don't end too soon

Cause all my life there's one thing I keep hopin to find
A woman who likes to make love in 3/4 time (be nice ya know)

  • @56AlexanderLong Welcome aboard. I first saw Ray live when I was 16. That was in 1964 and I have been listening ever since. At age 65 I find he just gets better. The man was a genius.

  • One thing's for sure, ain't none of us gonna get out alive...

    He says: Sorry 'bout that

    But he can laugh about it... and so should we.

    R.I.P. Brother Ray!

  • I know that you and I know what "...Three Quarter Time" is but most folks just google "...3/4 time". That may be just my way of saying I searched and searched for this and FINALLY found it. Thank you for posting this vid.

  • @dhi442 I was stationed in San Diego when I saw that performance with Tritt. It was 2005.

  • @mdsanford74 I've looked for that video with Travis Tritt for years, it was a great performance and I only caught it once.

  • Thanks for the post. Always loved this song by Ray. He was a musical genius and a living legend. R.I.P. Ray where ever you are tickling those ivories today.

  • @56AlexanderLong That don't mean everyone does brother. Try this: Let there be peace and let begin with me. In 3/4 time. Oh, and welcome to the team.

  • Amen brother! I saw Ray and Traviss Tritt preform this song on CMT several years ago and have been addicted to it ever since. I actually made love to a girl in three four time and smiled to my self while I was doing it. God bless women and GOOD music...whatever the genre!

  • I love this song; been listenin to it since i was a little kid; im 19 and i just wanna say that im saddened by the fact that many of my peers today no nothing of this and many other classics. Its time to get some more TRUE music lovers in this world; i enjoy listening to everything from classical; to death metal.
