Fast rock/blues track. Reached Semi-final of UK Songwriting Contest (Blues/Jazz Category).
Guitarist/Songwriter/Singer from Glasgow, Scotland. My music is Blues, Rock and Folk, though Have a listen and decide for yourself !
Story behind the song
The Story's in the lyrics! The twist is that the wife walks out on the husband, and to add insult to injury, she leaves him with their 2 kids!
Lyrics
Well you been comin' home late
talkin' long on the phone
More paint on your lips
Less meat on you're bones
New swing in you' hips, walking down the road
You say you wanna be free
Don't worry 'bout me
Well if you wanna go free
Well don't worry 'bout me
Don't make no difference darlin', I'll be fine, you'll see
Clear them thoughts out your head
Give me lovin' instead
Get them thoughts out your head
Give me lovin' instead
Get yourself together girl, had them blues since we wed
When I woke up this morning,
something was wrong
When I woke up this morning I found,
something big was gone
You done left in the dead of the night, long before dawn, Oh no!
Now my boy don't wanna know,
his sister can't understand
My boy don't wanna know,
his sister can't understand,
Why their Mamma's been gone since the, leavin' blues gotten out of hand
Well alright...
Well alright...
Well alright...
Why Mamma's been gone since the, leavin' blues gotten out of hand,
it's alright!!
