- If you can't tell, we had way too much fun recording this Janis Joplin tune by the river this morning. And we added our own little verse about whiskey and guitars. Enjoy!

Lyrics:
Oh Lord, won't you buy me a Mercedes Benz
My friends all drive Porsches, I must make amends
Worked hard all my lifetime, no help from my friends
So Lord, won't you buy me a Mercedes Benz
Oh Lord, won't you buy me a color TV
Dialing For Dollars is trying to find me
I wait for delivery each day until three
So oh Lord, won't you buy me a color TV
Oh Lord, won't you buy me a night on the town
I'm counting on you, Lord, please don't let me down
Prove that you love me and buy the next round
Oh Lord, won't you buy me a night on the town
Lord, won't you buy me a brand new guitar
I sold off my last one for a round at the bar
It was a mighty fine whiskey but it won't get me far
So Lord, won't you buy me a round at the bar
Oh Lord, won't you buy me a Mercedes Benz
My friends all drive Porsches, I must make amends
Worked hard all my lifetime, no help from my friends
So Lord, won't you buy me a Mercedes Benz
I have to admit, this is the first time I've ever heard a bluegrass/folk version of this song. Beautiful rendition.
Janis Joplin was born in Port Arthur Texas. Blues grass / folk is what she grew up listening to. Well done Rena & Toni. For a couple of Yankee girls, you did good. The guitar verse is most very excellent.
The hours....and hours...and hours to practice your craft. The hours....and hours ....and hours spent practicing the duo......That's music, that's commitment, that's fun....for you and the listener. Thank you from an appreciator of effort!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Watched corporate music during super-bowl. I realized you guys are the reincarnation of the real troubadours, going from town to town , telling compelling stories harmonized by musical instruments, sung in a fun way people feel good and want to hear more
Oh Reina, won't you play me another fine tune,
my ears, they are starvin', it can't come too soon,
so get your guitar out and just start to croon,
oh Reina, won't you play me another fine tune.
Whenever I happen to listen to these two, I am overwhelmed by their musicality and personality.
you guys are becoming my favorite group. I can't believe no one has picked up "hold me before I'm gone forever" It is bound to be a classsic.
My heart and my mind open up and I feel really good with the wonderful voices and instruments exceptionally played by Reina and Toni! I love she!
Thanks! This was one of my departed brother Dean's favorites. He loved the "Proe that you love me and buy the next round" line! Cheers to you, him, us all!
Love the twist you put on this classic. Keep them coming ladies. Well accomplished musicians, singers and songwriters.
Another Fun Sunday with Toni and Reina! Welcome Back Toni! Cheers!
Yes!!! Janis!!! Full of energy and wit . . . well done!!
Loved this! You two so talented! I keep repeating this but it's so true.
I love that song. You folks do it so well. Been tapping my foot and humming it all day.
Great hearing you sing Toni and welcome back to the states. Thanks for sharing.
Remember first hearing this live in Captain Tony's Key West in 1972. Sweet memories.
Sunday mornings are not complete without one of your tunes !!!!
Excellent rhythm
Toni is my guitar hero!
She is the total everything!
Mine too! 😍
Mine too.........

Loved the added guitar verse.....love this song when we are camping I'm going to have to learn the lyrics to that and sing it next time we are out.
Love it! Great harmonies & a real toetapper! Blues meets Bluegrass! ❤️👍
Great cover of a great song, well done!! 👏👏
So cute and fun, as usual!
I loved the guitar solo in the middle of the song: I think it's very fast, difficult and it reminds me a little bit the "Benny Hill Show" theme that I heard once played beautifully by Mark knopfler.
Very inspiring location too.
So mouch love! These gals haven't done a bad cover ever, and they play my favorite songs.
Great, gals! Thanks for publishing and sharing with us!

hello, I'm from Quebec, and I'm discovering you today. Your cover of the song Jambalaya was offered to me on my youtube home page and since then I listen to all your songs. you are too talented. I love that! By the way, this is the best Janis cover I have ever heard in my life ... Keep it up!
Sounds great, I love Janis but I have always found this song exhausting to listen to. You guys did a great job.

Cool as always 😎😎! I still own the Vinyl-LP Pearl from 1970 (when I was 18 years old)
Love that guitar jig... woot.

Wonderful rendition... Beat poet/playwright, Michael McClure, who wrote this song, and who just died in May, would be proud indeed.
so cool! you rock girls!!
Guys ....Keep rocking..Lov u both and God Bless
woow great as every tune - all the best from germany
Two beautiful girls, two beautiful voices, purely American songs that I like very much. Musicality and extraordinary ability, refinement and great kindness to sing and to draw from the acoustic guitar every beautiful sound possible. I fell in love with these two artists after the vision of jambalaya, the word "Train" priceless! in the last part of the movie. I also like the other members of the group on other video clips, always up to the best American stars. italian... Due ragazze stupende, due voci bellissime, canzoni prettamente americane che mi piacciono tantissimo. Musicalità e capacità straordinarie, signorilità e grande gentilezza nel cantare e nel trarre dalla chitarra acustica ogni bel suono possibile. Io mi sono innamorato di queste due artiste dopo la visione di jambalaya, impagabile la parola "Train"! nell'ultima parte del filmato. Mi piacciono anche gli altri componenti del gruppo su altre clip video, sempre all'altezza delle migliori star americane.
Very nice performance on this song from Janis Joplin ! Congrat ! Thumbs up!
Amay JJ cover ladies!
Thank you
Loved it. Nice job. ☺
Saluti da Roma sono un vostro ammiratore siete molto brave, è un piacere vedere ed ascoltare le vostre cover di traditional e classici della musica country folk. Saluti a voi e al River Missisipi

Awesome spot too guys
je suis un puriste en ce qui concerne JANIS JOPLIN mais je reconnais que c'est sympa cette reprise je pense que JANIS aurait aimer. je suis vraiment content que la jeune génération n'ai pas oublier cette immense artiste qu'était Janis joplin
The more I hear you, the more I love you!
Thank's God for your talent, thank YOU for your music!
I've just given away my Mercedes for buying a Ford for the first time. Sorry that I don't mention you. I hav'nt heard this song before. 😀
Great cover!
Just discovered your music through your collaborations with Josh Turner, and I’m really enjoying it. Thanks for sharing!
Its exellent! Great thanxx
that was great Toni I'm so proud:-)
I travel in a different crowd. Most of my friends drive Fords and Chevys. Awesome job you two.
Damn!!! My dad used to sing this when I was young. Never new it was an actual song. Thought it was jus a ditty or jingle. Thanks.
So you know, this was the last song Janis Joplin recorded before she passed away. Maybe the lord followed through on her request...
