Lyrics
GOOD OLD COUNTRY BLUES Morris P. Rainville Play me some good old country blues That will get my soul to move When i close my eyes and kick off my shoes I need Good Old Country Blues When I get tired of all the day's worries Body sends a message to brain It has to relax and rebuild the energy Before proceeding again; It need... There are many ways to bring peace of mind You can even walk in the rain There's one guaranteed for that down to earth coolness Listen and hear me say; Give me some... c1991, Rarerabit Music (socan)BMI

Morris, I really enjoyed your song. As Johnny Cash used to say, "Country Music and Blues come from the same place; poverty and hardship". Your song has elements of country as well as blues and you did a great job on it. Out of the top dozen songs in the Blues chart today, yours was one of about 4 that sound like actual Blues Music. Thanks, Lew Dawg Cloninger, The Stray Dawgs
