Still Got Fire Under the Hood | Psychedelic Garage Blues Rock

Still Got Fire Under the Hood — an original song by Lumavory. Psychedelic Garage Blues Rock, deep weathered male vocals and funny English stories about old cars, workshop mishaps, family, hard work and growing older without giving up. Cinematic imagined illustration of Jimi Hendrix with a period car, animated drifting dust and warm light. The music and vocals are original Lumavory creations, not a recording or performance by Jimi Hendrix. LYRICS Summer of sixty-seven, I was sweeping up the floor, Watching that blue Corvette outside the service door. I saved up every overtime, every dime I could, Bought a freedom-shaped disaster with a fire beneath the hood. Now my knees predict the weather and my back predicts the rain, But a loud guitar on Friday makes me twenty-one again. The neighbors say to turn it down, I nod like I agree, Then blame the faulty volume knob and turn it up to three. Still got fire under the hood, Still got trouble in a heart of good. Little more rust than the brochure said, But the wheels keep turning and I ain't done yet. Let that old six-string shake this neighborhood, Still got fire, still got fire under the hood. I worked a press in Cleveland, drove a truck through Arkansas, I've fixed a thousand engines, couldn't fix my father-in-law. He said my hair was trouble, said my music wasn't right, Then borrowed all my records when my band played Saturday night. I framed a wall last Sunday, put a level on the beam, The bubble took one look at it and packed up with my dreams. Mary hung a picture there and said, "Now that's a start." If you can't afford perfection, put a frame around your heart. Still got fire under the hood, Still got trouble in a heart of good. Little more rust than the brochure said, But the wheels keep turning and I ain't done yet. Let that old six-string shake this neighborhood, Still got fire, still got fire under the hood. We buried friends, we raised our kids, Kept our word the best we did. If the world gets cold, I'll leave a light, There's room in this garage tonight. Still got fire under the hood, Still got trouble in a heart of good. Little more rust than the brochure said, But the wheels keep turning and I ain't done yet. Let that old six-string shake this neighborhood, Still got fire, still got fire under the hood. Pass the wrench. Keep the record on. #GarageRock #SouthernRock #ClassicCars #DeepVocals #Lumavory
