Lyrics: Got the blues, can't be satisfied Got the blues, can't be satisfied Keep the blues, I'll catch that train and ride Whiskey straight will drive the blues away Whiskey straight will drive the blues away That be the case, I wants a quart today Bought my gal a great big diamond ring Bought my gal a great big diamond ring Come right back home and caught her shakin' that thing I said, "Babe what makes you act this-a-way?" I said, "Baby why did you act this-a-way?" Says I won't miss a thing she gives away Took my gun and I broke the barrel down Took my gun and broke the barrel down Put my baby six feet under the ground I cut that joker so long deep and wide Cut that joker so long deep and wide Yet got the blues and I still ain't satisfied 18

Lyrics: Blues are in the ocean, blues all in the air Can't stay here no longer got no steamship fare When my earthly trials are over cast my body out in the sea Save all the undertaker bills and let the mermaids flirt with me My wife controls our happy home my sweetheart I cannot find The only thing I can call my own is a troubled and a worried mind But when my earthly trials are over cast my body out in the sea Save all the undertaker bills and let the mermaids flirt with me I do not work for pleasure earthly peace I'll see no more The only reason I work at all is to drive the wolf from my door But when my earthly trials are over cast my body out in the sea Save all the undertaker bills and let the mermaids flirt with me 22

Stack O' Lee Blues This just repeats for all the verses. It's played very fast. It sounds like it is played with a capo on the 1st fret. e -0-h2-----------0-h2----- -0-h2-------------------- ----0-h2--------0------- B ----------3-----------3-- ----------3-------------- ----------3----------3-- G ------------------------- ------------------------- ------------------------ D -------0-----------0----- -------0-----------0----- -------0-----------0---- A -0-----------0----------- -0-----------0----------- -0-----------0---------- E ------------------------- ------------------------- ------------------------ e -2--------------2-------- -0--------------0-------- -0---------------------- B ----------3-----------0-- ----------3-----------3-- ----------0------------- G ------------------------- ------------------------- ------------------------ D -------0-----------0----- -------------------0----- -------0-----------0---- A -0-----------0----------- -------2----------------- ------------------------ E ------------------------- -3-----------3----------- -3-----------3---------- e ----------------0-------- -2--------------0-------- ------------------------ B ---0------3-----------3-- ----------3-------------- -1-S2-----5------------- G ------------------------- ------------------------- ------------------------ D -------0-----------0----- -------0-----------0----- -------2-----------2---- A ------------------------- -0-----------0----------- -0-----------0---------- E -3-----------3----------- ------------------------- ------------------------ e -------5--------3-----1-- -1-S2-------------------- B ----------2-------------- ----------3-------------- G ------------------------- ------------------------- D -------2-----------2----- -------0-----------0----- A -0-----------0----------- -0-----------0----------- E ------------------------- ------------------------- 43

Lyrics: Police Officer, How can it be? You can 'rest everybody but cruel Stack O' Lee. That bad man, oh, cruel Stack O' Lee. Billy de Lyon told Stack O' Lee, "Please don't take my life. I got two little babies, and a darlin' lovin' wife." That bad man, oh, cruel Stack O' Lee. "What I care about you little babies, your darlin' lovin' wife? You done stole my Stetson hat, I'm bound to take you life." That bad man, cruel Stack O' Lee. (Fourth and fifth verses hummed)..with the forty-four. When I spied Billy de Lyon, he was lyin' down on the floor. That bad man, oh cruel Stack O' Lee. "Gentlemans of the jury, what do you think of that? Stack O' Lee killed Billy de Lyon about a five-dollar Stetson hat." That bad man, oh, cruel Stack O' Lee. And all they gathered, hands way up high, At twelve o'clock they killed him, they's all glad to see him die. That bad man, oh, cruel Stack O' Lee 44

"The Blues is the first music that was here. It was born with Eve and Adam in the Garden. It is the one that tells the story."-- John Lee Hooker 45
