Little Red Rooster
This Golden Oldie was on the reportoire of many Bluessingers and/or bands, like a.o. Rolling Stones, Bob Dylan, Big Mamma Thornton. Easy to play on your guitar, just strumming the Bluesscheme with the chords E, A, B7. You can add some variation by putting in an E7 and a G chord, and if you can add a solo between the second and the third verse. And above all sing it. Have fun with our Little Red Rooster, who's too lazy to crow for day. (Sometimes I am that lazy too)

(Rolling Stones)
I am the little red rooster
Too lazy to crow for day
I am the little red rooster
Too lazy to crow for day
Keep everything in the farm yard
upset in every way
The dogs begin to bark
and hounds begin to howl
Dogs begin to bark
and hounds begin to howl
Watch out strange cat people
Little red rooster's on the prowl
If you see my little red rooster
Please drive him home
If you see my little red rooster
Please drive him home
Ain't had no peace in the farm yard
Since my little red rooster's been gone

When Love Comes To Town
by BB King
I was a sailor, I was lost in sea
I was under the waves, before love rescued me
I was a fighter, I could turn on the threat
Now I stand accused of things I've said
Love comes to town,
I'm gonna jump that train
When love comes to town
I'm gonna catch that flame
Maybe I was wrong to ever let you down
But I did what I did before love came to town
Used to make love under the red sunset
I was making promises that I were soon to forget
She was pale as the lace of her wedding gown
But I left her standing before love came to town.
Ran into a juke joint when I heard a guitar scream
The notes were turning blue as days are a dream
As the music played I saw my life turn around
That was the day before love came to town
Love comes to town,
I'm gonna jump that train
When love comes to town
I'm gonna catch that flame
Maybe I was wrong to ever let you down
But I did what I did before love came to town
Love comes to town,
I'm gonna jump that train
When love comes to town
I'm gonna catch that flame
Maybe I was wrong to ever let you down
But I did what I did before love came to town
I was there when they crusified my lord
I held the scabbard when the soldier drew his sword
I threw the dice as they pierced his side
But I've seen love conquer the great divide
Love comes to town,
I'm gonna jump that train
When love comes to town
I'm gonna catch that flame
Maybe I was wrong to ever let you down
But I did what I did before love came to town
I was a sailor, I was lost in sea
I was under the waves, before love rescued me
I was a fighter, I could turn on the threat
Now I stand accused of things I've said
Love comes to town,
I'm gonna jump that train
When love comes to town
I'm gonna catch that flame
Maybe I was wrong to ever let you down
But I did what I did before love came to town
Used to make love under the red sunset
I was making promises that I were soon to forget
She was pale as the lace of her wedding gown
But I left her standing before love came to town.

What's the Blues?
A simple question with a simple answer, because everyone has the blues. The blues is, whats in your heart and your soul. Keep that blues alive. Its not only the music its also what you are.
Maybe this could be a new song I am still writing on it. The lyrics of the refrain will be like this:
When I have finished it I dedicate it to my deceased wife Berry.
We didn't had a Motherday again this year.

Just drivin'around
by: Henk "The Nice"

Just drivin' around
In my Chevy Van
Just cruisin' around
See some girl see some men
Don't know where I'm going to
Don't know if I'll ever find
Just drivin'around
Got you on my mind

Me and the Devil
Me and the devil
by Robert Johnson
Early this morning when you knocked upon my door
Early this morning when you knocked upon my door
And I said "Hello Satan I believe it's time to go
Me and the Devil was walking side by side
Me and the Devil was walking side by side
I'm goin' to beat my woman until I get satisfied
She say you don't see why that I will dog her 'round
She say you don't see why that I will dog her 'round
It must be that ol' evil spirit so deep down in the ground
You may burn my body down by the highway side
You may burn my body down by the highway side
So my old evil spirit can get a Greyhound bus and ride
