Like A Hog With Thumbs - original blues - cigar box guitar

Like A Hog With Thumbs By Uncle John
100 year old Squarona box GDg on a Wes Carl amp turned low.

I hunger for you / like a hog with thumbs (x2)
I crave your love / got to get me some.

I’m burning for you / like a house on fire. (x2)
I’ve got to have / my heart’s de - sire.

If I can’t have you. / I don’t want nobody one else. [X2]
I’ve got to have you / for myself.

Instrumental
Repeat verse 1

Great song Uncle John. The guitar/amp combination sounds warm yet powerful and it's good you didn't have it so loud that it might drown out your voice. As it is it's very well balanced and it all blends perfectly.
