County music is not my bag — with this single exception.

It’s a cautionary tail for men going their own way of how crazy the hypergamous nature of women can make a man. Especially one strung out on drugs.

But a great song, so I’ll share.

Cocaine Blues

Johnny Cash

Lyrics
Early one mornin’ while makin’ the rounds
I took a shot of cocaine and shot my woman down
I went right home and I went to bed
I stuck that lovin’ forty-four beneath my head.

Got up next mornin’ and I grabbed that gun
Took a shot of cocaine and away I run
Made a good run but I run too slow
They overtook me down in Juarez Mexico.

Laid in the hot joint takin’ the pill
In walked a sheriff from Jericho Hill
He said Willy Lee your name is not Jack Brown
You’re the dirty hack that shot your woman down.

I said yes sir my name is Willie Lee
If you’ve got a warrant just read it to me
Shot her down cause she made me slow
I thought I was her daddy but she had five more.

When I was arrested I was dressed in black
They put me on a train and they took me back
I had no friends for to go my bail
They slapped my dried up carcass in the county jail.

Got up next morning about a half past nine
I spied a sheriff comin’ down the line
Coughed and coughed as he cleared his throat
He said come on you dirty hack into that district court

Into the court room my trial began
Where I was handled by twelve honest men
Just before the jury started out
I saw that little judge commence to look about.

In about five minutes in walked a man
Holding the verdict in his right hand
The verdict read in the first degree
I hollered Lordy Lordy have mercy on me

The judge he smiled as he picked up his pen
Ninety nine years in the Folsom pen
Ninety nine years underneath that ground
I can’t forget the day I shot my woman down
Come on you gotta listen unto me
Lay off that whiskey and let that cocaine be

I Want Out

Come to think of it any music that takes brains and creativity is a male domain. No f~~~ing bitch composers, no bitch prog rock or authentic metal (just some poser parasite who sucks off male talent, most jazz, even venture into other cultural genres it a male dominated space of creativity.

I guess the bitches get some pop “success” to gloat over, yes bitches you can have that one. but a dude was producing, mixing, arranging, probably writing, marketing and on and on.

Face it, music is always about continuity, as genre transitions to another genre or lyrics borrowed, instruments merge and get tweaked. no one reasonably doubts there hasn’t been a few talented women, but for f~~~ sakes acknowledge the debt to men. I guess music is a reflection of greater society. some western c~~~ whines about her patriarchal oppression enjoying one of the highest living standards in the world, well exceeding that of most males on the planet, on a computer/internet/electrical infrastructure she had f~~~ all to do with designing/building/maintaining. Listening to some broad studio sing a ripped off blues standard written by some dude who actually lived the blues.

She can kill with a smile, she can wound with her eyes

She can ruin your faith with her casual lies

And she only reveals what she wants you to see

She hides like a child, but she’s always a woman to me

She can lead you to love, she can take you or leave you

She can ask for the truth, but she’ll never believe

And she’ll take what you give her as long it’s free

Yeah, She steals like a thief, but she’s always a woman to me

CHORUS

Ohhh… she takes care of herself

She can wait if she wants, she’s ahead of her time

Ohhh… and she never gives out

And she never gives in, she just changes her mind

And she’ll promise you more than the garden of Eden

Then she’ll carelessly cut you and laugh while you’re bleeding

But she’ll bring out the best and the worst you can be

Blame it all on yourself ’cause she’s always a woman to me

CHORUS

She’s frequently kind and she’s suddenly cruel

She can do as she pleases, she’s nobody’s fool

She can’t be convicted, she’s earned her degree

And the most she will do is throw shadows at you,

But she’s always a woman to me

CHORUS

I know it’s comin’ quick, wishin’ I could fast forward
Tell these nice girls they’re the reason that I’m an asshole
Omega to Alpha male, because of that dollar bill
When I worked the mail room I ain’t have a shot in hell
I called her ass for two months and heard s~~~ from her
These girls couldn’t care less when the chips under

The chips are up and on my shoulder, you heard me?
I take it out on girls who don’t even deserve it
The girls I tried to hit last year, I still might
Karmas a bitch who doesn’t suck, but I still like
If we were kids I had the black k-swiss and Reebok
If we were kids I wouldn’t act like this but we not

This was the song I listened to when my ex was getting married and I still wasn’t over her.

Lucky me that I got over her one year after her marriage.
