Paolo Cantele (above) is one of my bestest friends and my bromance (and my client) and I wrote him this song (embedded below).

This was one of those ones that just tumbled out of my brain and body: I hadn’t intended to write him a song but then a beat led to a riff and a riff led to a wah wah pedal and a lyric.

I hope my guitar playing makes up for my crappy singing and I hope you enjoy it as much as I enjoyed recording it (here in Houston at Baby P Studios Gulf Coast location).

See you next week and thanks for being here. Lyrics follow the YouTube below.

Smooth (oh Paolo)

He’s got the crib
He’s got the clothes
He’s got the ride
And everyone knows

He’s got the look
He even wrote a book
Doesn’t have the hair
But the girls don’t seem to care

Smooth…
Oh Paolo
Some say he’s a gigolo

He’s got the wine
And he’s got the time
When the ladies are looking so fine

Likes heavy guitars
Likes hanging in bars
He’s even friends with a dude who’s named the Jar

You know he’s moving in the right direction
Gonna get some California sun
You know he’s making all the right connections
He’s America’s newest son
He’s gonna get the rock ‘n’ roll injection
And he’s gonna have himself some fun
He’s a son of a gun

Smooth…
Oh Paolo
Some say he’s a gigolo
