Albert King and Stevie Ray Vaughan – Stormy Monday
Albert King & Stevie Ray Vaughan In Session – Stormy Monday.
It doesn’t get any better than this!
The great thing about Stevie Ray was that he stayed humble and gave a lot of the credit for his knowledge of the blues to the greats that he watched and idolized..like Albert and BB king and many others. If you listen close to how he plays…you can hear the influence of those old blues men in his style.
Lyrics:
They call it stormy Monday, but Tuesday is as just as bad
Yeah, they call it stormy Monday but Tuesday, Tuesday is as just as bad
You know Wednesday is worst, and Thursday, oh so sad
The eagle flies on Friday and Saturday I’ll go out to play
Oh, the eagle flies on Friday and Saturday I’ll go out to play
The seventh day I’ll rest and I’ll kneel down to pray
I’ll call, “Lord have mercy, Lord have mercy on me”
Well, I’ll call, “Lord have mercy, Lord have mercy on me”
Well, you know I’m trying to find my baby
Won’t you please send her back to me
The eagle flies on Friday and Saturday I’ll go out to play
Woah, the eagle flies on Friday and Saturday I’ll go out to play
Sunday I’ll go to church and I’ll kneel down to pray
I’ll call, “Lord have mercy, Lord have mercy on me”
Well, I’ll call, “Lord have mercy, Lord have mercy on me”
Yeah, you know I’m trying to find my baby
Won’t you please send her back to me
