THE DIRTY LOWDOWN DELTA BLUES, song lyrics by Joel Sattler

If you don’t care if 6 was 9

If you don’t wanna pay the dime

If you don’t have time to spare

If you still bitchin’ that the world aint fair

Then I guess buddy, it aint news

You got the dirty lowdown Delta blues

After all you done you’re back at the start

Somebody’s playing dice with your heart

Thought you was hip but you wasn’t smart

Thought you was cool but you’re an easy mark

And when your only friend is glass of booze

You got the dirty lowdown Delta blues

No one told me you could get so down

Let a girl treat you like you was a clown

Wandering around this filthy old town

Searching for something that’s cold and brown

Face in the mirror but you don’t know whose 

You got the dirty lowdown Delta blues

I was once a man like you

All I wanted was smoke and booze

Swore off women nothing to lose

But I pulled myself up by the string of my shoes

And learned for myself a new attitude

you don’t have to sing the dirty lowdown Delta blues
