Shuffle blues played on the resonator guitar. Classic country blues finger-picking technique.
Played in a style I learned from Stefan Grossman in the 60s, when I studied with him in Greenwich Village on Sundays at the Folklore Center. I was in high school, still!
Louise
Louise, why you always treat me so bad?
Louise, why you always treat me so bad?
After all your lovers, baby, I’m the best you ever had
Come on, baby won’t you love me, now?
Come on, baby won’t you love me, now?
I’ll do anything you aks, babe, just don’t turn me down.
I painted your whole house,
I cleaned up your yard
But when I try to love you,
You say you’re just too tired.
Oh-oh….Ain’t it true
Sometimes the one you love, don’t love you!
Louise can’t we give it one more try?
Louise can’t we give it one more try?
But if I can’t get no lovin’, I’ll have to say goodbye
(Bye bye, baby, bye bye!)
