I knew a woman, and she knew me. She left me alone.. Why I can't see. Her soul was free, and was not contained, I guess her life I tried to restrain, feel no pain a man once said, but in a ditch he ended up dead, just be yourself and be what's true.. and I promise my friend, you'll catch that freight train blues...
The older I get the more I appreciate this talented man's music.I have to thank The Stones for recording "You Got To Move", thus introducing me to to McDowell's music.
Not one of the famous blues men, didn't make lots of money,BUT nobody could play slide blues any better than Fred Mcdowell and I've been listening for 50 years
