about

WWKD?
In these trying times, it is such an important question on which we all should reflect.
I ask myself this every time I pick up a guitar.
This track is dedicated to the great Keith Richards.
Genuflect.

lyrics

-------Double Down--------

I got the blues so I can’t decide,
should I pull out or let it ride?
Well, I know when to double down, I said,
you gotta know when to leave this town.
Go on babe, or just go down.
Go on babe, or just go down.
You can take it any way you want;
if it’s time to go, well you can jus’ cash out.

I got the blues so I can’t decide.
I got the blues so I can’t decide.

Bet you all know what I’m talkin’ about.
You take the odds and you spread ‘m out.
A hustle here, another one there;
you play the game without a care.
Go on babe, run it aroun';
go on babe, run it aroun'.
You could win it in a one horse town,
but when the race is done, they put the pony down.

Go on babe, run it aroun';
go on babe, run it aroun'.

Oh Baby, have you ever had the blues?
{Oh, this wretched life!}
Oh Baby, have you ever had to choose?
{Cuts you down like a swing blade knife!}

[solo (WWKD?)]

Oh Baby, have you ever had the blues?
{Oh this wretched life.}
Oh Baby, have you ever had to choose?
{Cuts you down like a swing blade knife.}
Oh Baby, have you ever had, have you ever had, have you ever had to choose?

I got the blues so I can’t decide,
I got the blues so I can’t decide,
I got the blues so I can’t decide,
I got the blues so I can’t decide,
I got the blues so I can’t decide.
