Great thread Jerry. Great 1st's everyone! I read the thread below that got me thinking about my first song. Written in 1986. It's strange for me because it's kind of a country twang to it, me being the blues lovin' type. 3-2 Blues G C G D G C D G 1. Well people I want to sing you a little song. I tell that It ain't gonna' take very long. G C G D G C D G This is a song about the blues. And if your bettin' it's about lost love, your gonna' lose. G C G D 'cuz, I didn't lose my baby and I didn't lose my job G C D G I didn't go broke and I ain't no slob. G C G D G C D G Chorus: I'm singing the blues and this is the point. I gotta' get myself out of this 3-2 joint. G C G D G Break: I'm singing the three-two blues. I must have lost my mind. G C G D G C D G This three-two beer is gonna make me blind. And I know in the morning I won't feel very kind. D G Three-two blues. 2. Well I live right down the road from this little gin mill, So it ain't so far to go, when I get my fill. But when I wake in the morning, the world won't stay still. And a million brain cells, that shit did kill. Chorus 3. It's a sad situation I got myself in. Drinkin' this stuff should be a sin. But it works on my head, till I can't see So, why do they tell me I'm drinking skunk pee? Chorus Break 4. Well my story is over, what more can I say? Except this little gin mill is takin' all my pay And this three-two beer is gonna' take me away! Chorus I gotta get myself out of this three-two joint (fade out)
