Let's write some Blues

Gee, I was gonna start one with:

"I woke up this mornin'..."

But I like yours better, cav!

Hi, Ho,
Hi, Ho,
Why is dat soul of mine
So dam, darn low!

This will sound much better with piano music in a dark, stinky, tavern. I'll sit ontop of the piano, with a whiskey in my hand, and sing my blues ballad for one and all.

What ta do?
I'm so low and blue!
Why?
Cause my Daddy left me
For you, know who!

Who, dat ya say?
Dat man done to you?

(Cont'd)

Come to baby come to me quick
I ain't had you for so long
it's making me sick

Love me tonight
Love me real tight
Hope for the best
"Cause I'm heading West!

I got no shirt
I got no shoes
But what I got, baby
is the no-service blues

(Chorus)
There's a one-way sign on my dead end street
Nobody can get out.
If you come here, please bring the beer
Else we gotta do without.
We got plenty of food ?'cuz the pizza guy
He got stuck here too.
We're havin' an instant party
The only one missin' is you.

The day they put up that one way sign
I tried to drive to work.
Cop just gave me a warning.
Said he didn't wanna be a jerk.
So I went back to my easy chair
Decided to relax.
Asked that cop to come on u
He said ?'thought you'd never ask.'

(Chorus)

A charter bus full sorority girls
Got lost on the way to town
Got stuck on the one-way dead end street
No way to turn around
One or two needed to use the can
And it's okay if they bring their friends
I tell you when you're livin' right
The amusement never ends.

(Chorus)

Publisher's Clearinghouse Prize Patrol
Brought a TV crew
Couldn't get where they wanted to go
Gave the check to you-know-who
Now it's a good wind that blows no ill
And I don't know who to thank
But because of the one-way dead end street
I can't take it to the bank.

- some half verses -

A garbage truck, a delivery van
A big stretch limousine
Two of three dozen taxicabs
You gotta know what I mean

No more problem with the one way sign
A solution has been found
Whenever we want to come or go
We just turn that sign around

-Just a little something I been working on for a couple of years. Needs a middle verse or three... maybe a bridge.

Drank a bottle of whiskey
Drank a bottle of wine
Done stabbed my woman
Now I'm doing time

I've got those Hungover-Dead Woman-Doing Time Blues....

Same themes for country and western except that his dog run off too.

If you want truly authentic C&W, you gotta have a pick-em-up truck somewhere in the song...

Sittin in the truck
Waiting for ya, know what!
Come on in and
Let us spin!

Blues in the morn,
And blues at night
Tears on my pillow,
All's ain't right.

Oh, so blue!
My baby done left me,
Boo-Hoo, Hoo!

Blues in the morning and
Blues at night.
I'm with my Baby, and
He's all right.

What you done Louise? What you done Louise?
Baby, I'm askin' you please?
Why does my pizza got dem anchovies?
I got the my woman messed up the pizza order blues....

If I read any more I will burst into tears !

Tears?
For me?
OK, my little honey Bee.

Honey Bee?
Honey Bee?
What ya see?
Is it Me or
Is it He?

Well my dear
Honey, Honey Bee
What ya see better be me,
Cause if it aint',
Tiss sorry, ya'll be!
