https://on.soundcloud.com/UBEPa0nzZoUpLs7YP2Hello Friends. This is a new take on a tune penned circa 2012. It's intended to be a swampy, rocky, bluesy number - see what you think. BIAB specs:

Bass: 388 Electric Metal Ev120
Guit 1: 384 Electric, Rhythm Rock Southern Ev 120

I do vocal with a little background singing from Jenny (free ReSing) and manage the odd live lick or two with some old arthritic fingers.
Lyrics:
I go down by the river Man that river runs fast
I feel new like a baby but that feeling won’t last
Everybody moving they move away from me
I stare out in the distance to see what they can see
I don't care anymore, I had my fill
But if pride doesn’t get me, pure envy sure will
There's a long line of trouble leading away from me
Every day I think to myself "What's the next thing gonna be?"
Trouble burns like a fever, It's burning in my blood
Musta picked up something in that river-bottom mud
I dunno know anymore, I’ve had my fill
But if pride doesn’t get me, pure envy sure will
I go down by the river Man that river runs fast
I feel new like a baby but that feeling won’t last
I don't care anymore, I’ve had my fill
And if pride doesn’t get me, pure envy sure will (repeat)
That's it. All insights gratefully received. 👍Cheers,
Mick
