A Lot O' Living To Do

by Eli Rivers

/

about

This track is the start of a new musical direction.
After performing and writing within a mixed genre over the years, I decided it was time to stick to my roots and what really inspires me in music.

The track is a nod to what we now call "Vintage Music" formally known as 50's Rock N' Roll.

The artist who has inspired me the most from the day I picked up a guitar was indeed "Elvis Presley".

"A Lot O' Living To Do" is a play on words about my life and the point where I am at now in my career.

Music has been a huge part of my life as long I can remember and, performing was second nature since being a child, but changes came in late 2019 when I realised I was unhappy with the music I was creating and performing live.

I hope you enjoy this new introduction to my work. :)

lyrics

Keep moving on..
just keep drifting.

Keep moving on,
Head towards the sun...
Hold my hand, lets take the night.

Lot o' living to do
got a lot o' living to do,
whole lot o' living to do,
got a lot o' living to do.

Got a lot o' living to do,
I wanna be alone with you.
Don't forget your coffee cup.
Hang in your birthday suit.
No longer strangers,
I'll give you all of me,
put it down on paper.

I got a lot o' living,
got a lotta lotta living.

Keep moving on..
just keep drifting.

Keep moving on,
Head towards the sun...
Hold my hand.

I'm heading for the road,
just out of town.
We'll pass the river,
head to the church.
Try to beg the priest for, our rebirth.
I got a lot o' living to do.

I got a lot o' living,
got a lotta lotta living.
