I must be going through a Rocky and Blues faze!

Save Me from Falling for the Blues is a rocky number with a cheeky lyric with a twist at the end of the story.
Hope you enjoy my latest effort and any input regards the sound mastering will be appreciated. smile

SAVE ME SAVE ME SAVE ME FROM FALLING FROM THE BLUES

I KNOW IT WAS AN AWFUL SIN AINT NO WAY THAT I COULD WIN
AND SURE AS HELL THAT SHE COULD EVER LOSE
BUT I WAS FEELING SO ALONE MY BABY’S OUT AND NO ONES HOME
SO I JUST THOUGHT I’D GRAB MYSELF SOME BOOZE

The CUTEST GIRL YOUVE EVER SEEN COME ON OVER SAT NEXT TO ME
AND TOLD ME THAT SHE DIDNT HAVE A DIME
HER FOLKS HAD THROWN HER ON THE STREET NO MONEY NO FOOD NOWHERE TO SLEEP
AND ASKED ME COULD I SPARE A LITTLE TIME

SAVE ME SAVE ME SAVE ME FROM FALLING FOR THE BLUES

WELL I’M A SUCKER FOR A PRETTY FACE I TOOK HER TO MY EMPTY PLACE
AND LISTENED TO SAD STORIES OF HER LIFE
I WIPED AWAY THE TEARS SHE SHED AND THEN I LED HER TO MY BED
AND SOMETIME DURING CAME AND STOOD MY WIFE

SAVE ME SAVE ME SAVE ME FROM FALLING FOR THE BLUES

WELL I EXPLAINED AS BEST I COULD THEY BOTH AGREED A MANS NO GOOD
TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF A WOMANS LONELY SOUL
SO THEY KICKED ME OUT THE DOOR AND SAID THAT I SHOULD SIN NO MORE
AND NOW THEY LIVE TOGETHER I’VE BEEN TOLD

NOW IM THE ONES WHOS ON THE STREET FEELING KINDA DUMB AND KINDA MEEK
GUESS I’M PAYING FOR ALL MY WAYWARD DUES
SO IF YOU EVER SEE A MAN WHO LOOKS LIKE HE COULD NEED A HAND
IT COULD BE ME SO SAVE FROM THE BLUES

What a great rockin' number. Nothing wrong with any of that fantastic delivery.

It would have everyone on the floor in seconds.

Excellent production, from every angle.

Hello, Yorkshireknight

Very groovy rock'n'roll!
It is just like an early Beatles' recording that has not been previously released.
Really energetic vocals and plays.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.

Best regards.

Thanks Greg,Gruvrider,Shigeki & Steve, and everyone else that has enjoyed the song and or made comments.
Glad you liked the twist to the story.
Shigeki, I take that as a huge compliment to be compared to a Beatles number, albeit they never released! ha ha! Fame at Last!
I shall now put this one to bed and wish everyone a Happy Easter!

"Yorkshireknight"...

Oh, yeah, baby, YE-EEEAHHH!

"Save Me From Them Blues" has got that irresistable "Footloose" rhythm that made me start beatin' on those desktop drums, but I had to tone it down because my co-worker is here in the office with me.

That RealTracks solo #1733 is off-the-hook! I almost asked if you, or a possibly a bandmember, had performed it.

As ecstatically energetic and compulsively dance-worthy as "Save Me From The Blues" most certainly is, I applaud you -- and I mean vigorously -- for writing lyrics that take a solid stance against a man abusing a woman's trust in, and committment to him:

"Guess I'm paying for all my wayward dues..."

'Nuff said.

Your handle, "Yorkshirekight", has been vindicated, sir!

Sincerely,

LOREN (a.k.a. "bluage")

Well done Paul! A really solid song. Great drums, insistent driving.

Doesn't let up for a second. It's only rock and roll but I like it!

Shame on you Loren for listening to music during worktime ! lol

'Off the hook' yep that sums me up in lots of ways. If I could play a solo (or a note or two)on a guitar then 1733 by Brent Mason would be something near to what I'd like to have played. He's a handy fellow to have around.

Thanks Tom,Dani,Dave & Marti too for your input. I grew up on the Beatles and the Mersey Sound of the 60's I also loved the music of Eddie Cochran and Buddy Holly.
There must have be some important gigs up in the sky for so many of our heros to be taken away so suddenly.

What a great toe tapping rockabilly song! Love it!

Super backing tracks, a great vocal and outstanding lyrics.

This is a keeper.
