Hey Everybody,
I have seen some off-topic posts asking, essentially, whether a man from my demographic has the right to sing the blues.
The answer is yes.
No One Knows the Blues Like Mehttps://soundcloud.com/david-snyder-gigs4/no-one-knows-the-blues-like-meV1
I don't need the rain
To make me feel my pain
Lord knows I been crying
In the bright sunshine
Don't need to be in Memphis
Or Chicago's South side
Or down at the crossroads
In a Mississippi Delta tide
Cause my blues knows every city
And my blues is certified
PC
See I got mine from the devil
In a crossfire hurricane
I've been bad to so many womens
I only got myself to blame
And I can't even look in the mirror
And it’s a dirty rotten shame
CH
Good Lord I'll sing the chorus
And I need y'all folks to see
That I lost my soul
While I was breaking hearts
From sea to shining sea
And there ain't no one in Chicago
Or even in hell
That I can see
No one knows the blues like me
Aw naw child
No one knows the blues like me
[Instr.]
[Chorus]
