Dirty Laundry – Live

Standard

Asked for a theme and some words from the audience.  Got Dirty Laundry as the theme and the words stains – spots – spit – worn. Took a few minutes and jotted down what follows.  Davis had a new program he was playing with to get a piano sound out of his guitar.  Will work on the audio.

R- Dirty Laundry. It keeps on piling up.  Every day I bring it home, My dirty Laundry.

  1. I talked to the preacher about my stains and how my praying just seems in vain.  Can’t seem to get away from my dirty laundry
  2. I went to My Place to find relief.  There were folks from the corner and in from the street.  There are those who have and those who have not.  And we all keep hidden our sweet secret spots.
  3. Some days are dirty and some days will shine.  This day, that day they all are all mine.  Some days are dry and I can’t work up spit, and sometimes I laugh in spite of this shit.
  4. But though I get tattered and torn and the veil of this house is weakened and worn.  I grit my teeth and set my face, I kick up my heals and pick up the pace.  But tonight I’m not going to worry bout no dirty laundry.
