The 77s
Dave’s Blues (Live at Mt. Vernon College, 10/8/97)
[Spoken Intro: Mike Roe]
Atlanta. Right? Hahaha!
[Verse 1]
I got a feelin'
I'll be headin' down for good
I got that feelin'
I ain't never gonna do the things I should
I'm caught in this world
Heaven-sent but hell-possessed
Feeling grey since my black went white
Yes means no, and no means yes
[Verse 2]
I do believe
I finally need a savior at last
I never saw the need before, but now
That time has passed
No ifs, ands, or buts
This old world done kicked my little Midwestern white ass, hahaha!
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 3]
I alternate
Between fantasy and the cold hard truth
I oscillate
Between the cool and the uncouth
But I resonate
To the piercing eyes of God I saw in my youth
[Verse 4]
Where did He go?
And what is He thinking about me now?
Am I a delight to Him or
Little more than an unholy cow? Yeah
Moo, moo, baby
I feel I been milked down, brown how now, brown cow, yeah
[Guitar Solo]
[Spoken Outro: Mike Roe]
Thank you. We need the sevens! Enough of that rock and roll. Devil music.
