A spoof on the blues - lyrics, instrumental solos, and a band that's not quite as good as they think they are, and a guy who's not quite got it all figured out.
Old guy singing and playing
Just an old guy working on his picking and singing.
Story behind the song
Just a spoof on the blues. Lyrics ('I Woke Up this Morning'), the instrumental solos (blah guitar solo, one-note piano solo)
And the band who ain't really that good, and the guy who hasn't qurte figures d out a relationship's requirements.
Lyrics
Well I woke up this morning
I had a real bad pain in my head
Well I woke up this morning
Passed out on the couch again, didn’t make it to the bed
Well I woke up this morning
Saw a note from my woman, went to see what it said. But first I had a beer.
Well I went looking for my woman
‘Cause the note said ‘I’m leaving, have a nice life’
Well I went looking for my woman
She can’t leave, I told her someday I’d make her my wife
Well I went looking for my woman
Had to walk, the DUI judge won’t let me drive. But first I had a beer.
Well I walked into the barroom
It was just where I happened to look first
Well I walked into the barroom
Played cards, shot some pool, lost about a hundred, not much worse
Well I walked out of the barroom
With a six-pack to go, I had a powerful thirst. So I had a beer.
Well I walked into the barroom
Hey, this was the second place I tried
Well I walked into the barroom
Saw my woman with my girlfriend, the one I keep on the side
Well I walked out of the barroom
Real quick-like, and headed back to our single-wide. I didn’t even have a beer.
Well I picked up my old guitar
Decided to write about my day in a song
Well I picked up my old guitar
Wrote it in two beers, didn’t take very long
Well I picked up my old guitar
Wrote about how my woman had done me wrong. Now listen here:
I woke up this morning and found my woman had done me wrong
I went looking for my woman to find the woman who done me wrong
I walked into the barroom and saw the woman who done me wrong.
