...I've been working on the guitar part the past few weeks and I'm ready to add the vocal, so I thought I'd post the lyrics here for others to use when the time comes, plus, I'd like ideas on the words in [ ? ] ...can't figure those out ... words in ( ) are spoke by BWM ... these are some great lyrics, especially verse two
Searching the Desert for the Blues
Blind Willie McTell
You may search the ocean, you might go across the deep blue sea
But mama you?ll never find another hot shot like me
I followed my baby, from the station to the train
And the blues came down like dark night showers of rain
I left her at the station ringin? her hands and cryin?
I told her she had a home just as long as I got mine
I?ve got two women and you can?t tell them apart
I got one in my bosom, the other one in my heart
The one in my bosom she?s in Tennessee
And the one in my heart don?t even give a darn for me
I used to say a married woman was the sweetest woman ever was born
But I changed that thing you better let married women alone
Take my advice let these married women be
?Cause their husband?ll grab you and beat you ragged as a cedar tree
When a woman say she love ya ?bout good as she do herself
I don?t pay her no attention, tell the same lie to somebody else
I really don?t believe no woman in the whole round world do right
Act like an angel in the daytime a [mis pa teach] at night
I?m goin? pretty mama, please don?t break this rule
That?s why I?m searchin? these deserts for the blues
I?m goin? pretty mama, searchin? these deserts now
That?s why I?m walkin? my baby home anyhow
Lord, oh Lord, Lordy Lordy Lord
Oh Lordy Lord, Lord Lord Lord
When a woman say she love you, ?bout as good as she do herself
I don?t pay her no attention tell that same lie to somebody else
(Now look here mama, I?m goin? to leave ya)
Lord Lord, Lord Lord Lord?.
