Bloodsucker Blues

by Hans Theessink recording of 1998 from Lifeline (Blue Groove BG-9020), You’re a greedy lowlife You’ve been sucking my blood Like a hole in the ground That never fills up Beat it boy, get your ugly self Out of that door I’ve had enough of your action I don’t want you messin' round no more I used to call you friend And you called me Buddy ‘til I found out That your thoughts were dark and muddy You were tryin’ to take advantage When you thought I was weak But I ain’t Jesus Christ I won’t turn the other cheek I’m not looking for revenge I swear If I did I’d send you a doll With pins in it But don’t you never ever ever Play your dirty tricks on me again 'Cause I swear I’d kill you I’d strangle you with my own hands

I cleaned up my tab for Sonny Boy's Help Me and made it into a short book. There's a Kindle version for 99 cents, and if you buy the paperback you get the Kindle free.
