Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Blood in my Eyes (Mississippi Sheiks)
I'm wondering if my question wasn't clear enough. Because with all due respect, the lyric in question is definitely not "eyes". I appreciate ya'll listening to the tune. Take a closer listen though. At the following time marks on the youtube clip. The 3rd instance of "I've got blood in my" the next word is not "eye"
0:28
0:56
1:22
2:09

I'm starting to think it was something profane in the actual song (given the obvious sexual overtones) and that he just muttered nonsense in place of the profane word for the recording.

All due respect and many thanks for any insight anyone can provide.
