lyrics

Drinking Blues

Well she told me she'd love me all the time
and now she wants to see her boyfriend too
Well she told me she'd love me all the time
and now she wants to see her boyfriend too
I say he's on the other side
loving nothing she done do

So I get down to drinking and a sad man don't ever win
so I get down to drinking and a sad man don't ever win
I can't tell if I'm drowning or if I'm teaching my sorrows how to swim

How about Mr. Morrison?
never seen old Van smile
What about mr. Morrison?
Ain't never seen old Van smile
He'd be my drinking buddy
if I made a telephone of my radio dial

I said a prayer
"send a killer to her boyfriends home"
I said a prayer
"send a killer to a boyfriends house"
when the blues they got you
and your woman got someone else

Yonder comes Maria
she's bound to teach me how to swim
yonder comes Maria
she's bound to teach me how to swim
since I got down to drinking
stone cold heart got me drowning.

about

Dan Frechette California

Bandcamp generously sends 85% of your support directly toward my humble living expenses.

This is the only place you will find all of my albums. I have most of them on YouTube Music (Topic Channel) and Spotify now as well. However, music is not free to produce and neither is rent and groceries.

For best audio results, download music at minimum 320 MP3. WAV is best. Thanks 🙏
