Interesting sidenote:
as u may see, the one part of the verse is what Dave used for a Blue Water--->Typical transition, it's my belief that thats how this song started.

hmmm, never heard of a blue water -> typical situation before, when was this?

It is downloaded off the net and is just labeled sound check jam. It has a real Doobie Bro's "let the music play feel" / "So damn lucky" feel. The lyrics are really mumbly for the most part but I distinctly hear a "would you please spend a minute, spend a minute with me....." anyone, anyone......????
