about

In the tradition of Mississippi John Hurt I couldn't leave the album without a finger style picking blues tune.

lyrics

Running With Blues

You can wallow in your pity
Drown in your misery
You can fill your mind with envy
Let sorrow be your destiny
When the rope tightening around your neck
You aint got much to lose
What goes around don't come around
When you're running with the blues

The storm is never over
There's just an endless rain
You swear you hear the devil
Callin out your name
You're running for the shelter
The serpents on your tail
Somebody threw away the key
They locked you up in jail

There's no hiding from the blues
It keeps you on the run
On this side or the other
You are gonna pay for what you done
The rope is tightening round your neck
You ain't got much to lose
What goes around don't come around
When you're running with the blues
