Bluesy Woman

Bluesy woman carry my tune
rasped in relegation
of a crying crimson moon

Forge forth steps of beaten breath
left alone in trepidation
destined to outdistance death

Blast out those baby blues
seep past storms of surrender
climbing barriers broken out by you

Bat your eyes and croon your cries
let your soul come play for me
build me up in a knock down world
in every simple note you bleed

I can just hear this, Tim! That is great... Sometimes music, or a place, anything can make you write such beautiful things. Thank you.

I like bluegrass music I enjoy it a lot. Today I wanted to buy bluegrass music,so I went to the music store.I asked the girl where the bluegrass music was, she said next to the country music,she asked me what singer I was looking for I told her i had no clue. So what is the differences between country and bluegrass music?

There's nothing better than a smoky bar, a stiff drink and some good blues sung by a beautiful woman. I closed my eyes after reading this and just pictured this scene and listened. Very cool Tim. This one set the mood perfectly.

Thanks Chris, I like to go to Buddy Guy's place when I get a chance for some great blues.
