Not keeping fit, putting on weight, sittn round all day, sick of my family blues

[Mike_S]

Double fester I am hoping... BluesFest and heavily inspired by the Corona Virus too.

It's called "The not keeping fit, putting on weight, sittin' round all day, sick of all my family blues"

Pretty pleased with this in the sense that it's totally live with no edits, sadly I normally have a few edits here and there fixing the odd bum note, etc.

Just a bit of fun this one... (my family hasn't heard it yet... hopefully they will see the funny side!!!) 

Update: played it to them... they saw the funny side but my daughter called me an idiot! 

Dunno about you
But I'm kinda bored
No-one would have thought it
But oh Good Lord
It's very strange
Doing nothin at all

I drift around all day
There's nothing to see
All I do is eat
And drink lots of tea
And you know
I'm going out of my mind

I've got the not keeping fit,
Putting on weight,
Sittin round all day
Sick of all my family blues

I'm sick of all the reruns
On the TV
I'm sick of Breaking Bad
Seasons 2 and 3
There ain't nothin
Nothin left to see

I really don't like cooking
Or gardening too
For someone like me
There isn't to much to do
But I guess
That's how it's gotta be

I've got the not keeping fit,
Putting on weight,
Sittin round all day
Sick of all my family blues

Your family must have loved those lyrics.
Cool groove.

Another bluesy winner, a toe tapper little tune! Works really well!

[Ferryman_1957]

Great fun Mike! Nicely done for one take, and it's all recorded nice and clearly, everything comes across well.

I hope your daughter was kidding....

[Greeny]

Oh yeah! Relatable, catchy, and cool. Has a George Thorogood & the Destroyers vibe - which is a very good thing. Love that guitar tone & energy.

It's neat that you have two different versions posted here.  I like the full band version best, but the acoustic only version is cool too.

Daughter called you an idiot?!  I say cut off her allowance for at least a week. (if she's still living at home)
