The MoVers' Studio Jam: "I Can't Get A Fair Shake Around Here"

One of my best no-nonsense blues originals,
based on the endless cycle of lip-service
and no deliverance, when it comes to mustering
up some gigs and/or seeking a love-life.
Featuring Gino Maciel at his best on guitar
and me on keyboard and lead vocal at my home studio,
PLUS some playful humor near the end of the clip.

~LYRICS~
--------------------------------------
I can't seem to get a fair shake around here
All ya' do is laugh at me and put me down
I can't seem to get a fair shake around here
All ya' do is laugh at me and put me down
If I can't fulfill my life's hopes and dreams
Then I'm packin' up and splittin' from this cold, cruel town

Ya' make promises to line me up with this and that
But all you're really doin' is talkin' the talk
Ya' make promises to line me up with this and that
But all you're really doin' is talkin' the talk
I can't seem to get a fair shake on career and love
And now, I think it's time to walk the walk

I can't seem to get a fair shake around here
Because I come from somewhere else
I can't seem to get a fair shake around here
Because I come from somewhere else
And I don't do like what everybody else does
It seems like I'm just spendin' my life on the shelf

Nobody here wants to take me seriously
And I'm constantly being let down
Nobody here wants to take me seriously
And I'm constantly being let down
If I can't get a fair shake around here
I'll just simply pack my bags
And split from this cold-hearted town

I can't seem to get a fair shake around here
All ya' do is laugh at me and put me down
Nobody here wants to take me seriously
And I'm constantly being let down
If I can't get a fair shake around here
I'll just simply pack my bags........
And split from this cold-hearted town~
