It’s Bad You Know by R.L. Burnside
From the ‘come on in’ album!
That strong, steady rhythm and the harmonica…wow. The harmonica never sounded so ominous. You just know some bad is coming.
Lyrics:
It’s bad you know
It’s bad you know
She’d asked me why
I just went on’ told her
She’d asked me why
I just went on’ told her
She’d asked me why
I just went on’ told her
She’d asked me why
I just went on’ told her
That Engineer blowed no whistle at all
No Fireman he rang his bell
That Engineer blowed no whistle at all
No Fireman he rang his bell
That Engineer blowed no whistle at all
No Fireman he rang his bell
That Engineer blowed no whistle at all
No Fireman he rang his bell
It’s bad you know
She’d asked me why
I just went on’ told her
She’d asked me why
I just went on’ told her
It’s bad you know
It’s bad you know
