Song Title: Don't ask me why Style: Blues



Verse One:


Got no newspapers to read. Got no cigarettes to smoke...

Got no T.V. To see... And I am flat broke...


Transitional lead piece ----------------------------------------------------------------------


Got no woman to love me. She put me out of my Home...

Got no life to lead... And I am all alone...


Instrumental-------------------------Lead -----------------------Long ----------------------


Hook


Got no job that I can go to... Ain't no money in my pocket...

Got no Guitar to play... I had to take it out and hock it...

Got no sunshine in my sky... Don't give a damn if I die... Don't ask me why...


Instrumental------------------------Transitional lead piece --------------------------------


Verse Two:


No alcohol in this Motel... Ain't no air conditioner in my window...

What day it is I can not tell... And I am sinking low...


Transitional lead Piece------------------------------------------------------------------------


What the hell is in my head? ... 'Bout to drive me insane...

Seems like a book I read... But I... can't recall the name...


Transitional Lead Piece ----------------------------------------------------------------------


Hook


Got no job that I can go to... Ain't no money in my pocket...

Got no Guitar to play... I had to take it out and hock it...

Got no sunshine in my sky... Don't give a damn if I die... Don't ask me why...


Instrumental-------------------------Lead -----------------------Long ----------------------


Xtro


Don't ask me why...

Got the door open for the heat...

No shoes on my feet...

Don't...

Don't... Ask me why...




Why I Wrote It:


I pictured myself in a motel down south... In the high summer... The air conditioner is broken... I don't have a Guitar... And I've been thrown out by my woman...How much worse could things be?

Oh, no Alcohol and no smokes either. Not that I use those things anymore, but the old me can appreciate those dire straights... I think I just wrote the song again for my explanation!

I really like this song...
