Don’t you tell me

2016-06-08

A little while ago I started humming a tune with the opening line. I did a little impromptu blues recording session using my voice chat mic. It's not a stellar recording or performance, but it was fun to do. Anyway, here's the transcript in poetic form!

 

Don't you tell me

 

Don't you tell me

what's wrong with me

Don't go looking for

something that's right

outside your door

Don't you look at me

as if there's nothing to see

Don't you tell me

you want nothing to do with me

 

I don't know you

I can't see you

None of your words are true

There's something

that I'd like to do

but I can't hear you

I can't see you

 

There's nothing wrong with you

but I don't want

anything to do with you

I can't say to you

these words you know are true

Here I'm going out the door

Don't expect me back

I won't be here no more

You won't see me

that's the last

you'll hear of me
