David, you don't need my permission to play anything I write. It's an honor when anyone such as pbee or yourself feels moved enough to play it. But trust me, you don't want me on the mic. If I started singing, ASPCA would be at my door looking for the wounded animal. If you ever do play it & it gets recorded, I'd love to hear it.

Until next time, keep the faith.]]> Sunday Songwriters Group P0RR https://guitarnoise.forum/sunday-songwriters-group/ssg4-week-11/#post-153893 https://guitarnoise.forum/sunday-songwriters-group/ssg4-week-11/#post-153527 Sat, 21 Jan 2006 05:20:40 +0000 Mannish Boy vamp.

And I want permission to play it at open mics!

Love it and I'm glad to see you making regular appearances here again.

Peace]]> Sunday Songwriters Group David Hodge https://guitarnoise.forum/sunday-songwriters-group/ssg4-week-11/#post-153527 https://guitarnoise.forum/sunday-songwriters-group/ssg4-week-11/#post-153467 Fri, 20 Jan 2006 23:04:15 +0000 well Im a sucker for some blues, this is good I enjoyed it.

Keep up the good work

The only thing I didn't get was the line

"when you're afflicted for life when they're indigo"

I'd have it:

"but you're afflicted for life when they're indigo."

Maybe it's just a typo ... or maybe I'm missing some kind of reference/ wordplay.]]> Sunday Songwriters Group iambictreat https://guitarnoise.forum/sunday-songwriters-group/ssg4-week-11/#post-153439 https://guitarnoise.forum/sunday-songwriters-group/ssg4-week-11/#post-14810 Fri, 20 Jan 2006 19:28:12 +0000 ********************************
INTRO
when you wake up to find that your house was robbed
and show up to work and find you lost your job
when your wife up & leaves you for the girl next store
don't kid yourself into thinkin' there can't be more

when the Lord's guiding light is just an oncoming train
and your best path to follow is from the pot to the flame
when the cops grab you for a job your twin brother pulled
don't kid yourself into thinkin' that your quota was filled

bad can get worse, there's always lower than low
what's the worse kind of blues? indigo

SONG
I got it real bad, I've got the indigo blues
I got it real bad, I've got the indigo blues
ain't nothing you can do, when you're this shade of blue

you know most blues are OK cause they'll come & go
you know most blues are OK cause they'll come & go
but you're afflicted for life when they're indigo

now there's all kinds of blues, that come in all kinds of shades
there's all kinds of blues, that come in all kinds of shades
but the indigo blues grab hold from the cradle to the grave

I got it real bad, I've got the indigo blues
I got it real bad, I've got the indigo blues
ain't nothing you can do, when you're this shade of blue]]> Sunday Songwriters Group P0RR https://guitarnoise.forum/sunday-songwriters-group/ssg4-week-11/#post-14810
