Don't Bother None
length: 3:41 minutes
disk: OST 2: "No Disc"
music by: Yoko Kanno
vocals: Mai Yamane
musicians: The Seatbelts
info: This song begins with a steel guitar solo which leads into some classic
Mai Yamane vocals. (incidentally, the guitarist for the Seatbelts is none other
than Tsuneo Imahori, the guy who composed the soundtrack for Trigun - which explains
why certain elements of the Trigun score are reminiscent of Cowboy Bebop). I still
find it odd when Mai sings male vocals, though. I hear it's some kind of a fad
in Japan, women singing songs written for men, men singing songs written for women.
Anyway, It's a cool number, so nobody cares. :p
sessions: Asteroid Blues,
Sympathy For The Devil, Hard
Luck Woman
lyrics: by Tim Jensen -
Readin' my paper in Ray's cafe
The ol' guy next to me is loud as day
Rambled and rambled while eatin' his pie
He dropped his wallet, now it's mine uh huh
Sorry old man but that's jus' the way that it is
Don't bother none
Won't help at all to worry 'bout it
Picked up the wallet and slipped out side
Walked around and walked around and walked around town
I found my nerve and a good place to hide
Only to find no cash inside uh-huh
Oh well I guess that's just the way that it is
Don't bother none
Won't help at all to worry 'bout it
I got thirsty so I went to a bar
Met a lil darlin' with the face of a star
In the mornin' woke up to find
She stole my car along with my heart uh-huh
Oh well I guess that's jus' the way that it is
Don't bother none
Won't help at all to worry 'bout it
Wish she'd give me back my heart uh-huh
Oh, well I guess that's jus' the way that it is
Don't bother none
Won't help at all to worry 'bout it
