Monkey Around

(Please note: all lyrics are subject to the singer's interpretation)
Acting awful wild and weird
Shoutin' and screechin', bouncing off the walls
Swingin' from the chandelier
Yeah, I've been running through the neon jungle
Chasing every woman in town
When you make a man into a monkey
That monkey's gonna monkey around
Wait until you see my new girlfriend
I picked her up down at the zoo
She's got rings in her nose, glitter on her toes
And a very well placed tattoo
Now that I've been up on the highwire
You ain't never gonna get me down
You made a man into a monkey
Now the monkey's gonna monkey around
Once you had me dancin' at the end of your chain
Begging for some small change love
I was jumpin' through hoops, doing loop-de-loops
But, girl, I've finally had enough
So when you see me out rocking in my little red hat
Going ape all over town
You made a man into a monkey
That monkey's gonna monkey around
Once you had me dancin' at the end of your chain
Begging for some small change love
I was jumpin' through hoops, doing loop-de-loops
But, girl, I've finally had enough
So when you see me out rocking in my little red hat
Going ape all over town
You made a man into a monkey
That monkey's gonna monkey around
Yeah, you made a man into a monkey
Now the monkey's gonna monkey around

Shaky Ground

(Please note: all lyrics are subject to the singer's interpretation)
Lady Luck and four leaf clovers
Won't ease this hurt I feel all over
My life was one special occasion
'Til your leaving dampened the situation
I'm standing on Shaky Ground
Ever since you put me down
Standing on Shaky Ground
Ever since you put me down
My car got repossessed this morning
Harder times I haven't seen in years
You'd better throw me a life preserver
'Cause I'm about to drown in my own tears

Crutches

(Please note: all lyrics are subject to the singer's interpretation)
I like my artificial courage
A shot of whiskey and beer
It makes feel like superman
I been leaning on it for years
I take my morning "medication"
"Hair of the dog" and I'm fine
I swear I'm gonna lay my demons down
I really mean it this time
I'm gonna walk without my crutches someday
Yeah, I'm gonna walk without my crutches someday
The prettiest girl I went to school with
Has got a monkey on her back
She traded her husband and children for some crystal-meth and crack
She said I'm checking into rehab cause I can't quit by myself
I'm gonna get back everything I lost
I'm gonna climb out of hell
I'm gonna walk without my crutches someday
Yeah, I'm gonna walk without my crutches someday
Stumbling block is just a stepping stone
It's not as hard as it seems
A backbone is better than a wishbone
And nothing comes to a sleeper but a dream
I'm gonna walk without my crutches someday
Yeah, I'm gonna walk without my crutches someday
Yeah, I'm gonna walk without my crutches someday

I've been travelling this road for way too long
I need my baby in my arms, girl I need to find my way home
Comin' baby, I'm comin' home girl extend my love to you, just you
We've been apart so long baby
I got a vision girl what we're gonna do
Take my hand girl, baby let me lead the way
I'm gonna hug you and kiss you girl until the break of day
Ooie baby - You give me chills and a thrill that I can't explain - can't explain
I've been missing you so bad baby, your tender huggin' and your lovin's gonna drive me insane
When you touch me you send chills all down my spine
You make a blind man see, girl you make a strong man cry
C'mon baby, don't stop girl, I can't get enough of your love - your love
You make me feel so good baby Your sweet lov'in and your huggin's what I'm thinking of

You're moving way too fast
One day you'll pay for what you do
You're moving way too fast
One day you'll pay for what you do
I might not be around
When the blues catch up with you
You're headed for a fall
Unless you find some middle ground
You're headed for a fall
Unless you find some middle ground
If you want me to stay babe
You'd better slow your motor down
Do you have to get so low
Just to get another thrill
Do you have to get so low
Just to get another thrill
I ain't the fool you think I am babe
I've almost had my fill

Too Drunk to Drive Drunk

(Please note: all lyrics are subject to the singer's interpretation)
Got off work, got in a heavy round
A couple games of pool, just a wind on dime
Ready to leave, I couldn't find my keys
The bartender says he's got them
But they're staying here with me
'Cause you're too drunk to drive drunk this time
Too drunk to drive drunk this time
I know you might have did it a million times before
But you ain't driving outta here like this no more
I went and looked at my car, my car looked back to me
I said, "We can't go nowhere, the bartender's got my keys"
You mighta driven drunk outta here before
But ain't gon' let you do it anymore
'Cause you're too drunk to drive drunk this time
You're too drunk to drive drunk this time
I know you might have did it a million times before
But you ain't driving outta here like this no more
Well, I went back in and had another round
I planned some more booze to try to wine down
I'm ready to leave, couldn't find my keys
Bartender's still got 'em and staying here with me

Nothing to Lose

(Please note: all lyrics are subject to the singer's interpretation)
I got nothing in my pockets,
And I'm driving down a long hard road,
There's no plans up ahead,
And it don't matter where I go.
There ain't no 9 to 5,
Nobody who, cares what I do,
I got everything to gain,
And I ain't got nothing to lose.
I see trouble by the roadside,
And I wave, as I go by,
They try to sell me some bad luck,
But I tell 'em all, they're just wasting time.
I know bad luck and trouble,
Just a way to pay my dues,
I got everything to gain,
And I ain't got nothing to lose.
Well I'm feeling mighty lucky,
And there ain't no end in sight,
Shift on into overdrive,
Ride on into the night.
Ain't afraid of the darkness,
Or this highway that I choose,
I got everything to gain,
And I ain't got nothing to lose.
I got everything to gain,
And I ain't got nothing to lose.
Nothing to lose

(Please note: all lyrics are subject to the singer's interpretation)
She gave me back my mojo
She raised my flag cocked my gun
Well, she gave me back my mojo
She raised my flag cocked my gun
I had a long giant spell of trouble
Now I’m bound to have my fun
Been a long time baby
Since I felt this way, That’s right
Been a long time honey
Since I felt this way
Feel like high school through twenty one
Yes, Way back in the day
Yeah! Come on now!
Ooo, Sure like your peaches honey
And I’m bound to shake your tree
Yeah, I Sure like your peaches baby
And I’m bound to shake your tree
Ooo, your bustin’ out, out the seams honey
And I sure like what I see
Yeah!
I’m ready little mama
Hell bent to have some fun, yeah!
Well I’m ready little mama
Hell bent to have some fun
If you don’t like me shootin’ off baby
Well don’t you monkey with my gun
Yeahhhhs
Take it brother
She gave me back my mojo
She raised my flag cocked my gun, yes she did
Yeah, she gave me back my mojo
She raised my flag cocked my gun
I had a long giant spell of trouble
Now I’m bound to have my fun
Awww thank you baby

Shape I'm In

(Please note: all lyrics are subject to the singer's interpretation)
I was down on myself both day and night
I couldn't get a thing to go just right
I was hangin' by my thumb and
Slippin' on my feet
I had to take a break I couldn't stand the heat
Just when I thought I could never win
I was doing pretty good for the shape I'm in
I went to the movies last night again
I couldn't stay long enough to see the end
But there was something going on
That I couldn't see
Everybody's making out on the balcony
I was missing out on the fun again
But I'm doing pretty good for the shape I'm in
I tried so hard to get back in the race
I'd be satisfied if I could place
There's so much competition but the best
Don't always win
I'm doing pretty good for the shape I'm in
I went to a party and made a few passes
One was a dream and the other was nasty
I guess you know by now that I did it again
But I was doing pretty good for the shape I'm in
I was down like a dollar coming up
Against a yen
I was doing pretty good for the shape I'm in

Back in a Cadillac

(Please note: all lyrics are subject to the singer's interpretation)
Freddie Mae, the girl that I adore
Sent me packing in my beat up Ford
Told me money was the thing that I lack
But I came back in a Cadillac
She said, "You'll never be a man of means
You don't do nothing for my self esteem"
Hurt so bad and fellas I ain't lyin'
Eyes wide open, girl robbed me blind
A little hug, a little kissin'
What cash I had it all come up missin'
Robbed me hard, didn't cut me no slack
But now I'm back in a Cadillac
Thought I'd take a ride
And park it right by her door
(One more)
She came outside
With her arms open wide
I said, "Too late, baby
I don't need you no more"
Now I'm wiser and a whole lot richer
Since I got that girl out of the picture
I get more lovin' it's a natural fact
Look out, I'm back
(Last time, last time, last time)
In a Cadillac

Goddamn, Robert, you are the man! Some damn fine southern blues, unlike any I have experienced. The replay value on this son of a bitch is outstanding. I believe I'm on my 10th spin after what a week? Dark lullabies to calm the disturbed & disturb the comforted I have to say, I have never heard a version of Killing Floor Blues quite like Robert's. Only one of the many reasons I keep coming back to this 💎

Truly a work of beauty, another masterpiece in Southern blues & rock. Robert has that swagger, not even bragging, but it's straight talent. This man is a god-damned prodigy, harkening back to even Robert Johnson, if I must be honest. Each rotation is just a joy.
