about

"Loaded Gun Blues" was recorded in Midland Park, NJ with David Debiak in 2010.

lyrics

I was born with the blues in my veins
but I got a good house and a family name
I don't know much about struggle and strife
but I've been down my whole damn life

I was born with a silver spoon
Got enough guilt to fill the room
But I love my woman and I love my dog
Still I can't stand the rain and fog
Still I can't stand the rain and fog

I was born with a loaded gun
All I learned in school was how to run
But I put my faith on the wings of the dove
send a little prayer up to god above
send a little prayer up to god above
send a little prayer up to god above
