Why did I have to find this song down the list when I typed stormy Monday ? This track should be at the top of the list .... he did create it after all !!!!
They call it stormy Moday, but Tuesday's just as bad
They call it stormy Moday, but Tuesday's just as bad
Wednesday's worse, and Thursday's also sad
Lord have mercy, Lord have mercy on me
Lord have mercy, my heart's in misery
Crazy about my baby, yes, send her back to me
What version of the song is this? On his Stormy Monday compilation, it sounds a lot different. I prefer this one, it's more hard hitting and penetrating.
Read somewhere that this was the song that inspired BB king to get his electric guitar. I was 3 notes in and it shows. BB's entire sound and feel is in this single song. XD
I do a version of this that's very similar (though not nearly as good). Recently had a couple guys come up and tell me I was playing the song wrong because I wasn't playing it like The Allman Brothers! I always loved the Allman's but man, these guys were real assholes. Everyone can interpret a song in their own way and just because you don't do it like The Allman's doesn't make it wrong!

Yes the eagle flies on Friday, and Saturday I go out to play

Sunday I go to church, then I kneel down and pray
Lord have mercy, Lord have mercy on me
