Ritchie Valens - In A Turkish Town




There across the sea
Waits my fair loved one
In a Turkish town
Waiting there for me

And I know that someday
We'll live in love
So, the mystic Turks say
From the stars up above

So, wait there my love one
I'm coming home
To my little Turkish girl
In a Turkish town
To my little Turkish girl
In a Turkish town

(Ritchie - solo guitar and Rene - bass and instrumental)

So, wait there, my love one
I'm coming home
To my little Turkish girl
In a Turkish town

To my little Turkish girl
In a Turkish town.



Ritchie: (playing riff)
Bob singing: .. 'in a Turkish town'

Ritchie: Does that sound like you want?
Bob: 'That's it'

Ritchie and Rene: (guitars begin)

Bob: 'Okay'
Ritchie: Da-da-da, da-da, da-daa

Bob: No, I don't like that, I don't like adding more.
He's gotta do it his way.
Unk man: 'Well, maybe that's the way he's singin' it'
Bob: I know it, but you know how you started that chorus?
Bom-ba-bom. Do it again, start it like you're gonna sing.

Ritchie and musicians begin:
There across the sea
Waits my fair love one

Bob: Wait, you're one beat ahead
Like this (Bob sings) 'da-da-da-da, daaa'
Ritchie continues: When-I, la-la

Bob: Okay, that's how I want you to start at the beginning.
Ritchie: Yeah, I was goin' a little bit too fast.
Bob: Yeah, I want you to get that 'boo-ba-baa'
Can you hit that first?
That's the way I want you to start.
Then go into it, okay? Boo-ba-baa.
Ritchie: Just do that and go into my song, okay?
Bob: No, boo-ba-ba, then into your intro, okay?

Ritchie (begins guitar)
Bob: 'Ooo-ba-ba'
Then intro, okay.
And make those, good and pronounced each time, alright?
Are a number behind when you're singing.
You're up a little bit in your guitar duo.

Ritchie (begins guitar intro)

Bob: I hope let's do in one
Ritchie: That's hard, you know!

Bob: Roll it. Okay, Take 15

There across the sea
Waits my fair love one
In a Turkish town
Waiting there for me

And I know that someday
We'll live in love
So the mystic Turk say
From the stars up above

So wait there, my love one
I'm coming home
To my little Turkish girl
In a Turkish town

(guitar and Dano)

So wait there, my love one
I'm coming home
To my little Turkish girl
In a Turkish town

To my little Turkish girl
In a Turkish town.
