Description
I was chatting with MJer Feter, when I told him about my new guitar - a bergundy Telecaster. He asked "what's your first song with the Tele going to be?". This is it - something of a departure for me, but such a lot of fun to do. The Tele's a dream!!
Lyrics are based a little on Feter's story - check out his bio page and his home page ( http://mysite.verizon.net/res8ydyw/theraintroubadoures/index.html ) for more.
I've wanted a Tele for so long now - read somewhere that Keef plays his chunky rhythms on the neck pickup, so that's what I tried. Apologies if it sounds like any song in particular.
I tried to make this sound as much like a live gig as I could. Play it LOUD!

Feter’s Blues
© 2006 Neil Porter
Let’s play a little rock and roll tonight
Crank it up and get the sound just right
What you’ve got sure sounds all right to me
Plug me in to the 21st century
I’m shut inside I’ve heard the falling sound
I’ve been out there and things are burning down
A man could get a real bad case of blues
I’m standing here just playing my blues for you
It makes me feel alright
Man this could take all night
It’s true
I don’t want to fight
Just want to play all night
With you
You can sing about a ball and chain
You can sing about a runaway train
You can sing about anything you want
You can go to that fancy restaurant
It makes me feel alright
Man this could take all night
It’s true
I don’t want to fight
Just want to play all night
With you
Write a song from the county jail
Waiting around for your lover’s mail
I’m absorbing every thing you say
Sing the blues – I’m living them every day
It makes me feel alright
Man this could take all night
It’s true
I don’t want to fight
Just want to play all night
With you
