Supernatural Blues

from Blind Spot by The Lucky Losers

/

about

Forget the past, become who you want to be, and enter the supernatural world of grooving. This is a latin based blues with a searing guitar from Laura Chavez, some gorgeous vocal harmonies, and a strong male lead vocal.

lyrics

Round & round…what gets torn down
(Eventually) has got to come back up
But since you’re gone, I can’t go on
I feel like I’ve lost my lovin’ cup
Empty houses burnt to hell
From furied fits of rhyme
Put the pedal to the metal
Just leave it all behind
It’s one last gasp…forget the past
‘Cause now I’m finally free
Gonna get my rear back in gear
And get to where I long to be

Wheel & deal, but keep it real
That’s all they’re ever gonna ask of you
The voice you hear without fear
Do just what you know you got to do
Snakes may scare…it’s truth or dare
Anyone can tell you so
We all must crawl before we run
You can’t run from what you know
What’s it to you, brother man
You got nothing else to lose
(You can) only do the best you can
The supernatural blues

Show & go…then you’ll know
It’s time to take your story to the stage
Shake & bake…that’s all it takes
These blues will lead you to a higher place
Don’t criticize…just realize
Sometimes we play the fool
You may be down, but you’ll rebound
If you don’t lose your cool
Allow your brain to entertain
Then you can pick & choose
There’s many ways along the path
To supernatural blues
