Notes:
1. This song was uploaded July 1, 2005, which would have been Willie James Dixon's 90th birthday.
2. Tis the season for fairs and festivals (2 blues, 2 country, 1 acoustic guitar, 1 rock) so this will likely be my last upload for a few weeks. Feel free to comment and such, but it may be awhile before I can respond.
3. Made to be played - loud.

Lyrics
Don'tcha Preach at me
It doesn't really matter bay-be just what you say
Cuz I ain't gonna listen to ya anyway.
While you whine and complain about the way things are
Just pointin' out the problem ain't gonna get us very far
Gimme real solutions to the way things oughta be
Or give it a rest bay-be, don'tcha preach at me.
Well I know you think you got a real raw deal
Well maybe you did but give it time to heal
Still it ain't no reason to be on my case
Cuz just bein' human ain't no big disgrace
Life's fulla questions, ain't no guarantee
Suck it up, bay-be don'tcha preach at me
You say that your solutions will fix up what's wrong,
But it's the same old story you bin tellin' all along
And why would you be thinkin' you know everything,
When all you're really good at is just arguing
You ain't gonna solve it with your PhD,
Take a hike bay-be, don'tcha preach at me.
You say you need your understandin', need your space to grow,
Well the more I learn bay-be, the less I know,
And instead of feelin' safety I would rather feel good
Life is fulla hazards babe, it's understood
You can wrap it up in rainbows but still it's gonna be
Welcome to the train-wreck don'tcha preach at me.
It doesn't really matter bay-be just what you say
Cuz I ain't gonna listen to ya anyway.
While you whine and complain about the way things are
Just pointin' out the problem ain't gonna get us very far
Gimme real solutions to the way things oughta be
Or give it a rest bay-be, don'tcha preach at me.
Well I know you think you got a real raw deal
Well maybe you did but give it time to heal
Still it ain't no reason to be on my case
Cuz just bein' human ain't no big disgrace
Life's fulla questions, ain't no guarantee
Suck it up, bay-be don'tcha preach at me
You say that your solutions will fix up what's wrong,
But it's the same old story you bin tellin' all along
And why would you be thinkin' you know everything,
When all you're really good at is just arguing
You ain't gonna solve it with your PhD,
Take a hike bay-be, don'tcha preach at me.
You say you need your understandin', need your space to grow,
Well the more I learn bay-be, the less I know,
And instead of feelin' safety I would rather feel good
Life is fulla hazards babe, it's understood
You can wrap it up in rainbows but still it's gonna be
Welcome to the train-wreck don'tcha preach at me.

This is how it should be done! Great writing, great playing, with incredible turns of phrase and a chugging rhythm section. Great job all around!
