Liner Notes

Yet another David L. Graham/Phil Bearce joint! @mctown sent me some blues lyrics I'm sure with the knowledge that I would know what to do. So, even though I'm much of an R&B guy, the words wanted to go to there... #collab #R&B #bluesy #acoustic

Lyrics

Blues was the only thing I knew Till there was me and you My heart got all giddy My soul felt brand new But that moment didn't last 'Cause I was just the next one you used

Got to get back to the blues Got to get back to the blues Least you can understand winning When you know how to lose Got to get back to the blues

Oh, when you're down so far, babe You know all you can see is up So, so don't expect nothing So you're satisfied with enough When the going gets rough, yeah A man's got to know how to stand tough

Got to get back to the blues Got to get back to the blues Least you can understand winning When you know how to lose Got to get back to the blues

Oh, the blues is satisfying 'Cause there ain't no denying You can move up and on If you keep on trying But you're not going to know where you come from And that ain't no lie Got to be down sometimes Just to know what's up Got to lose your heart sometimes To really know love

Got to get back to the blues Got to get back to the blues Least you can understand winning When you know how to lose Got to get back to the blues

I know where I am when I got the blues Got to get back Got to get back to the blues

Cool all around... lyrics and music... and especially the harmonica!!

Beautifully written and preformed blues. I feel like being in a blues bar.

Great line: Least you can understand winning, When you know how to lose. The harp really makes this tune for me. The title is strong too. It strikes a curiosity, like why do we have to get back to the blues? Oh Ok, I see. I also like the reverb on the vocals.
