So I'm trying to write some blues lyrics for a friend's band
    #8128497 - 03/10/08 06:02 PM (16 years, 22 days ago)

It's playing off the Robert Johnson folklore of selling his soul for his abilities. and any mockery of these great musicians isn't meant to be taken seriously, it's a lighthearted song. anyway, constructive criticism welcome. :jamming:

I can't play guitar today
I got the blues but cannot play
I can't play guitar today
I got the blues but cannot play
I look at all the frets by my fingers keep drunk and stay

Well my mama told me son
You'll get better just have some fun
Well my mama told me son
You'll get better just have some fun
But my mama knows nothin' cause the years have gone on and on

I went down to the crossroads
Tryin' to sell my soul
I wanna learn to pick a lil' better
I knew i'd have to sell my soul
But then i saw a ghost singin', "I'm a steady rollin rollin man"

He ran to me and got in my way
Hollerin', "get out while you still can't play!"
He ran to me and got in my way
Stumblin' drunk barely awake
"I'm stuck in this place cause I had the blues you got today"

His eyes were white all around
His footsteps they made no sound
An old cracked guitar and a bottle of gin
No one really knew just where he'd been
He looked like a junkie but fuck he sure could play

I saw Clapton by his side
With Howlin' Wolf in his ride
I saw Hendrix jamming something really blue
What Stevie Ray Vaugn tried so hard to do
They all looked like dead and I knew I had to run away

Well I reckon now i'm old and grey
and of course I still can't play
well i reckon now i'm old and grey
And i'm still thinkin of that place today
At least I have my soul and I'll rest in peace someday

soft silly music is meaningful, magical :heartpump:

:lol: Nice, I like the comment about SRV the best!

Still, some verses seem kind of pointless and the jokes are kind of inside jokes for guitarists... but I like it!

There's no better way to rock out than with your cock out!!
