  • You know went down to my baby's house . . . Lord, I sat down . . on them steps . . She said, "Come on in this house, Lightin! . . the husband just-now left . . My husband just now left . . Sure enough I'm by myself . . He just now left . . " ......

  • There's something amazing about the way these guys delivered a blues song. Just so simple yet there is a pulse running through the whole song that is constant and swingin'. Beautiful.
