10 anni fa scompariva The Genius Ray Charles - Testo e video Hit The Road Jack

Il 10 giugno del 2004 a Beverly Hills (USA), scompariva all' età di 73 anni, Ray Charles Robinson, vero genio della musica Soul e R & B, a causa di un carcinoma ai polmoni.
Ray Charles era nato ad Albany (USA) il 23 settembre 1930 e divenne ceco quando aveva sette anni, a causa di un glaucoma.
Nonostante gli fosse stata insegnata la sola musica classica, The Genius imparò la musica che sentiva dentro, ovvero il Jazz ed il Blues, diventando negli anni un punto di riferimento per tante generazioni di musicisti.
Tanti brani storici, come "Georgia on my mind", "Hit The Road Jack", "Unchain my heart", What'd I Say, "I can't stop loving you" e molte altre.
Ray Charles era un pianista, tastierista, compositore ed attore (memorabile la sua presenza nel film cult "The Blues Brothers") che negli anni ha suonato dal Blues al Jazz, dal Soul all' R &B al Rock'n roll.
The Genius era un ottimo giocatore di scacchi, aveva avuto due mogli, ma ben 12 figli da 7 donne diverse!

Testo: Ray Charles - Hit The Road Jack

(Hit the road Jack and don't you come back no more, no more, no more, no more.)
(Hit the road Jack and don't you come back no more.)
What you say?
(Hit the road Jack and don't you come back no more, no more, no more, no more.)
(Hit the road Jack and don't you come back no more.)

Woah Woman, oh woman, don't treat me so mean,
You're the meanest old woman that I've ever seen.
I guess if you said so
I'd have to pack my things and go. (That's right)

(Hit the road Jack and don't you come back no more, no more, no more, no more.)
(Hit the road Jack and don't you come back no more.)
What you say?
(Hit the road Jack and don't you come back no more, no more, no more, no more.)
(Hit the road Jack and don't you come back no more.)

Now baby, listen baby, don't ya treat me this-a way
Cause I'll be back on my feet some day.
(Don't care if you do 'cause it's understood)
(you ain't got no money you just ain't no good.)
Well, I guess if you say so
I'd have to pack my things and go. (That's right)

(Hit the road Jack and don't you come back no more, no more, no more, no more.)
(Hit the road Jack and don't you come back no more.)
What you say?
(Hit the road Jack and don't you come back no more, no more, no more, no more.)
(Hit the road Jack and don't you come back no more.)

Well
(don't you come back no more.)
Uh, what you say?
(don't you come back no more.)
I didn't understand you
(don't you come back no more.)
You can't mean that
(don't you come back no more.)
Oh, now baby, please
(don't you come back no more.)
What you tryin' to do to me?
(don't you come back no more.)
Oh, don't treat me like that
(don't you come back no more.)
