Sock Blues


Get Flash to see this player.

Description
A while back my wife said "why don't you write a song about missing socks". I started this song but never did finish it. Then I thought this could be a fun collaboration project. So I added more measures with instruments for you MacJammers to vent your missing sock frustrations with voice, instruments,loops or whatever. If anyone would like me to omit my vocals or add more instruments in instrumental part, I can accommodate.HAVE FUN!

Lyrics
Well, I wake up in the morning
I put on my shirt & jeans
Can't find me a pair of socks
Well,only one can be seen,,Oh NO

I got a black one here
& a blue one over there

Why can't they be like my underwear?

SOCK SUCK!

You know they cause me a feeling

SOCKS SUCK !

I wanna climb the ceiling

where dem dang socks go??

Well, all I got to say
some ones been steeling my socks away

I got these one & only lonely
Sock blues

Yah, why can't they be like underwear???
Terry Zappa? That you man?! This one cracked me up - I can relate big time ;-) And the culprit looks pretty close to the one in your song art. Killer track, I'll see if I can summon some of my Jimmy Page lessons from way back when ;-)

What a great
feel this has, so relaxed. Fun idea for the lyric - really enjoyed. I always buy only exactly the same socks - so never have that problem anymore. If the same are not available then throw them all away and start again.
Great harmonica too.
Cheers

Sweet song.
Love the bluesy harmonica. You know, it would be worse if socks were left and right, like shoes. Len has the beginning of the solution. Some socks don't feel well and slink away to hide ..in the winter sweater you put away for the season or in the corner of the fitted sheet. They might be found, but by then their comrades have been tossed. It is survival of the sneakiest. Your wife has good ideas. Thanks.

We can all relate to the socks blues. I'm glad your wife suggested you write this. I'm looking forward to hearing some killer electric solo on this, not that it doesn't stand as a finished work. Soulful playing!
