This is one of our first recordings together, an undubbed, unedited single-take. Rick's Taylor guitar, Heather's 1972 Gibson EB2 fretless bass, and two mics were recorded direct to minidisc from the PA. We still play this live, but less frantically.

About the song
This is a fun song to sing and play, and to get people to join in the chorus, the "Close the door" bit. Even more fun seeing them trying to dance to it...
Lyrics
TAKE IT AWAY
Girls are supposed to play hard to get.
Men like the thrill of the chase, you bet;
But I don't play games, I just say:
Get a good hold and take it away,
Take it away, take it, take it away
Real men never mind a girl who leads.
Never bother with the others - they're just weeds.
Don't lead a guy on: lead him astray:
Get a good hold and take it away,
Take it away, take it, take it away
Close the door, close the door behind ya
Close the door, close the door behind ya
Close the door, close the door behind ya
Close the door, close the door behind ya
Take it, take it away
Girls are supposed to play hard to get.
Men like the thrill of the chase, you bet;
But I don't play games, I just say:
Get a good hold and take it away,
Take it away, take it, take it away
Real men never mind a girl who leads.
Never bother with the others - they're just weeds.
Don't lead a guy on: lead him astray:
Get a good hold and take it away,
Take it away, take it, take it away
Close the door, close the door behind ya
Close the door, close the door behind ya
Close the door, close the door behind ya
Close the door, close the door behind ya
Take it, take it away
