Ain't No Woman Worth It

Artist: RandyB305 Album: Blues Collection Listen / Download MP3 [https://risingwaveradio.com/uploads/randyb305_1768355807.mp3] Lyrics: I went to see my woman but she wasn't there. Yeah, I went to see my woman but she wasn't there. So I kicked in her door and sat down in a chair. I was sitting there thinking, where can she be? You know, I was sitting there thinking, where can she be? The one thing I hope, she's not cheating on me So I walked to the kitchen, and I got me a knife. Yeah, I walked to the kitchen, and I got me a knife. If she's fooling round, I'm gonna take her life. [guitar solo] Then she walked in the door, and was staring at me. You know, she walked in the door, and was staring at me. Her expression said - BUSTED! I was the last man she'd see. Now, Honey, don't do it. That was her plea. Oh, Honey, don't do it, that was her plea. Her eyes filled with terror, and she fell to her knees. [extended violent guitar solo] Oh, Honey, don't do it, That was her plea. Baby, please don't do it. That was her plea. My blade sank in deep, and I fell to my knees. For thirty long years now, I've paced in this cell. Yeah, for thirty long years now, I've paced in this cell. Ain't no woman worth it to live in this hell. Ain't no woman worth it to live in this hell. Ain't no woman worth it!

The Monster

Artist: RandyB305 Album: Blues Collection Listen / Download MP3 [https://risingwaveradio.com/uploads/randyb305_1770692239.mp3] Lyrics: [verse 1] For years I have lingered, In a world of steel and stone. How often have I wondered "Must I always be alone?" [verse 2] Deprived of touch and love, my heart grows hard and cold. What have I become, "A monster," I am told. [CHORUS] The monster they all see, Is not who I remain. Your touch could set me free, And wipe away my pain. [guitar solo] [verse 3] Behind these bars of iron, trapped within this cage, my lonely heart needs love to heal this bitter rage. [verse 4] Will you dare to touch me? Or will you shrink in fear? Will you show the love to wipe away my tear? [guitar solo] [CHORUS] The monster they all see, Is not who I remain. Your touch could set me free, And wipe away my pain. [verse 4 reprise] Will you dare to touch me? Or will you shrink in fear? Will you show the love to wipe away my tear? [CHORUS] The monster they all see, Is not who I remain. Your touch could set me free, And wipe away my pain. [verse 3 reprise] Behind these bars of iron, trapped within this cage, my lonely heart needs love to heal this bitter rage. [verse 4 reprise] Will you dare to touch me? Or will you shrink in fear? Will you show the love to wipe away my tear? [CHORUS] The monster they all see, Is not who I remain. Your touch could set me free, And wipe away my pain. [acapella] The monster they all see, Is not who I remain. The monster they all see, Is not who I remain.
