Original song inspired by my emotional wasteland of a stoic personality. Lyrics by Ron Sprague and arranged by me. Played on a resonator CBG I built with a Lowe Cone and Mojobone Works acoustic biscuit bridge.
The joke is that my wife and kids say I have but one feeling. Hungry. Ron took that and ran with it.
Hungry Blues
Ain't no feelin' when you're in my shoes
Got no dealin's with sad abuse
Nothin's lost, you got nothin' to lose
Feed my hunger, got the Hungry Blues
Call me Stoneface, never shed a tear
Gotta stone heart, feels once a year
But my stomach needs its daily dues
Mornin' to evenin's got the Hungry Blues
People round me always weep and moan
Pretty wimmen try to take me home
They cain't touch me 'til they hear the news
Way to catch me, feed my Hungry Blues
No emotions needed round here
No sadness, no grief, no greater fear
Mourning the inevitable, there’s no use
Just gotta feel my Hungry Blues
Need no mercy, dontcha criticize
For my sins. I won't apologize
Only passion, just the way I cruise
No slave to fashion 'cept my Hungry Blues
