Oreo Cookie Blues by Stevie Ray Vaughan & Lonnie Mack (Live)

Live at The Orpheum Theater on Beale Street, Memphis, TN, USA, August 1986.

WOW, rare footage/performance of SRV playing slide guitar! Two late greats singing about something we all know & love! What could be better?
A dream performance for any guitar and blues-loving fan! These two guys could have done a song about infectious lesions and still made it ultra-cool. Great collaboration.

Stevie Ray Vaughan: Vocals, Guitar
Reese Wynans: Keyboards
Tommy Shannon: Fender Bass
Chris “Whipper” Layton: Drums
very special guest: Lonnie Mack: Guitar

Lyrics:
Chocolate on my fingers, icing on my lips
Sugar diabetes and blubber on my hips
I keep the night light burning in the kitchen baby
So I can go downstairs and cruise
I got them oreo creme sandwich
Chocolate covered creme filled cookie blues

I hideÂ’em in a cabinet, I keepÂ’em in a jar
For emergencyÂ’s you know I keepÂ’em in the
Glove compartment of my car
And I canÂ’t live withoutÂ’em
They gitÂ’ me higher than I can get on booze
I got them oreo creme sandwich
Chocolate covered creme filled cookie blues

Doctor says IÂ’m crazy
You better giveÂ’em up and quick
Or youÂ’ll be pushing up daisies because
Boy you definitely sick
I couldnÂ’t quit if I wanted to
Yeah I donÂ’t wanna lose
ItÂ’s them oreo creme sandwich
Chocolate cover creme filled cookie
Built by nabisco, ainÂ’t no rookie
Next best thang to nookie blues

Songwriters: Lonnie Mcintosh / Mike Wilkderson
