Haynes, Warren - Pretzel Logic Lyrics
I would love to tour the Southland
In a travelling minstrel show
Yes I'd love to tour the Southland
In a traveling minstrel show
Yes I'm dying to be a star and make them laugh
Those days are gone forever
Over a long time ago, oh yeah
I have never met Napoleon
But I plan to find the time
I have never met Napoleon
But I plan to find the time
'Cause he looks so fine upon that hill
They tell me he was lonely, he's lonely still
Those days are gone forever
I stepped up on the platform
The man gave me the news
He said, You must be joking son
Where did you get those shoes?
Where did you get those shoes?
Well, I've seen 'em on the TV, the movie show
They say the times are changing but I just don't know
These things are gone forever
Over a long time ago, oh yeah

Haynes, Warren Pretzel Logic Comments
Warren I’d love to hear what you hear in your head. O yeah
Nicely done!
The great thing about Warren Hayes is he only does songs to which he can add a new dimension and he's certainly done that to this Steely Dan classic.
Nice work by Ron Holloway on Sax, too. Saw him on the fourth and he's still going strong.
WOW, Warren is amazing! This is a new favorite for me.
Warren Haynes playing with the Allman Brothers Band .. next to Dickey Betts .. and then young Trucks playing slide .. little trucks boy is the son of the drummer .. Haynes just is a superior player and doesn't get his true recognition .. he's one of top 100 guitarists in the world too.

Wow, this is so great! Glad i found it by mistake!
Great cover version, from a band that normally you cannot cover...
Top job boys and girl! Donald and Walter in particular would have loved the blues excellence you brought to this tune.
Warren Haynes for PRESIDENT!!! WoW, just WoW!!! Pretzel Logic, Really??? Thank You!!! What a Fantazzztic Band to Play Along WIth!!!
Loving this!
Government Dan's Steely Mule!
I've never cared for Warren Haynes...he's still hoping for it here.
+ Raymond Faron News Flash...Warren doesn't even know you exist.
What the fuck do you know about it, he was one of my best friends guitar instructor for over a year and I used to drink beer and shoot pool with Warren when he lived in Northern California, so eat it dipshit.
Legend !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
Excellent cover, Warren does it again and again without ever ending !!
Listening to this though reminds me why I love Steely Dan so much and why they're still my fav! I do like Warren Haynes a great deal too but, let face it...its missing the pocket a great deal
thank you alice you are so very kind .
This is one cool groovy cover of one of the best Steely Dan Tunes also you have an awesome band with you congrats Warren Haynes much success.....
what a fantastic arrangement done by a maestro and who no doubt respects the dan and given the great walter becker died last week, god rest his soul , what a fantastic tribute to him this would of been from mr warren haynes , we have all been so priviliged to be alive to see all these great musicians perform and play their magic , god bless them all for the joy and pleasure they have brought us !!
richard dahl very well said sir my sentiments exactly
So true
I am such a big Steely Dan lover, but I will never upfront detest a cover of one of their songs, and besides that, I think these guys do a wonderful job......
DirkjeA
every time I hear this Icant believe the drible coming put of people outstanding guitar
Cool Warren
gets better every time great great songto name an album after brilliant
the more i hear this my respect for this band grows by leaps and bounds . a great cover of an awesome song.
The highest of compliments is to be covered by Warren.
This is so great!
probably the longest version of this world class tune thank you Warren OUTSTANDING
amazing !!!
i like it !! with boring covers of the same ol ..same ol..this is refreshing, works for me !!
I was pleased to see someone cover any Dan song, but I dunno, this seems to plod along fairly drearily.
I dig WH. He's a very talented & distinctive guitarist and a soulful singer. But covering a Steely Dan tune when you're not Jon Herrington on guitar, or any number of Steely Dan's female voices (Leonhart, Mizelle, etc.) on vocals, is a very, very tall order. Pretzel Logic is a tough tune to cover because Steely Dan set the bar so high.
Bob MacNeal the horns help so much turning it around let's not forget the original is under 4 min this runs 14 defiantly not a Keith carlock jam
Joe..do your research ? the douches, as you call them... in the last few years have toured more than they have ever done ? and still will be, i am sure...
Unfortunately the guitarist has nothing to says on his instrument. The other instrumentalists are fare ahead of him. Haynes is a great player but suffers form "always too much notes" in every song syndrom - less is more Mr. Haynes, Duane knew that.
Wow...Pretty sure Duane would be right by his Allman brother Warren's side laughing their asses off about your absurd presumption.
Great version of Dan's classic. Thank's, Mr. Haynes!!!
The most prolific artist of our time. What has the douches that made this song done lately?
Steely Douche? LOL!
Very cool .. Solidly bluesy then into a nice jazzy excursion from the drum solo onward
Chris Fact Manolitsis this cover sucks.
I love Warren but he doesn't have the chops to play with Steely Dan. It's too bluesy. His backup band is eh also... The main piano run is not precise.. It's not the way the song is supposed to sound.
Warren does not have the chops. What a dumb comment. Warren is no cookie cutter.
Nonsense, I am certain Becker & Fagan would be delighted with this version-it is a slightly rockier reading but all the chords are respected along with the feel-don't be so square man!
+ The Reason Code True, and that's why he's playing this brilliant tune with his awesome band, THEIR WAY, and quite well too. This is not your average Steely Dan cover. Even Steely Dan never plays their stuff the same "precise" way each time.
Yea can't play watch him with Eric. Asswipe
Warren Haynes doesn't have the chops to play the Dan.
He hit about a tenth of what makes that song.
Keyboard opening totally off.
yea the drummer sucks also i don''t remember any solo on the album
TheBhannah awful.
Go fuck yourself.....................
It sounds like Steely Dan without Jazz.
xidbrain that piano was so much jazz his hand was on fire
xidbrain excuse me this is straight-up jazz
The whole point is that "Pretzel logic" - the song - is considered the most "blues" format song from Steely Dan. Warren being a blues man of some consequence probably chose it for this reason. Rather than say - Kid Charlemagne or Peg. It's awesome. Maybe think about it.....
It's good from 7:17.
Really!
great cover
Fantastic!
I like this band a lot but I don't think they should cover this song. It's just a complete mess.
I think its a great version of the tune. They are not trying to copy Steely Dan note for note. They are giving their own interpretation of the song. Improv is not supposed to be rehearsed. Warren gives a killer solo at the end.
+DEADHEAD712 thanks brother. My sentiments exactly. I like to hear artists add their own signature to a song, rather try and replicate it precisely.
@DEADHEAD712 the mess be you
Won't play on mobile? Why in this day and age?
Stupid idiots screaming around are ruining the whole drum solo...
nice cover of Steely Dan! the sincerest form of flattery, as they say!
PHENOMENAL@ WOW
Absolutely AWESOME!!!
Outstanding rendition of an alltime Great tune, Thank You Warren for pulling Pretzel Logic into your playlist. Cherioo!!
Fucking FANTASTIC sounds Better and Better every time I play it!
Excellence.
Now that is what's called a Homerun. Better yet a Grandslam. Warren is smokin on this one.
damn any tune this guy does is just so damn beautiful
Great to see a Steely Dan song covered by such a great group of musicians! Warren is just frickin awesome as usual!
Excellent Video, thanks for posting this. What a Band!
