Black Dog Blues

Black Dog Blues
I'm in the middle of blacked out abyss.
I'm hiding in the dark I been put on the list.
I'm a running and I'm hiding away.
With rain coming its a black dog kind of day.

Caught in a vice, that wont release its grip.
This poison wine only I can sip.
I'm falling deeper, I cant make my way.
With rain coming its a black dog kind of day.
..........................................................................

I'm calling out to you Oh please don't leave me alone.
The skies started falling and the elements groan.
My unique disposition on a black dog kind of day.

Very cool. Loved the vocals and harmonies. Guitar shuffle in the back track was excellent. Loved your guitar tone in the solo.

Nothing better than a good original blues song in my opinion, so many people just do covers when it comes to blues.

This is great, great lyrics and vocal, nice job on the solo and mix too.

Loved it, I left you a review over there too.

Hey Rob, sorry you've not been too good - hope things are on the mend.

A classic piece of traditional blues with a great atmosphere.

Good choice of instruments, a great mix and excellent vocals with super harmonies.
