about

Our own version of a Jimmy Reed 'Big Boss Man' style song, with conscious effort to channel in Ron 'Pigpen' McKernan's spirit, a song you can swing a sledgehammer too. Written after reading john Steinbacks 'Indubious Blues' and my own experience of working deadend labor jobs.  

lyrics

Once in awhile, once in awhile,
once in awhile Kid I'll let you take a load off of your feet
now that you work for me
now that you work for me
born to be your cold mean father
born to be one wicked mother
one wicked mother

forget your dreams, I'll take your dreams,
I'll take your dreams, I took your dreams
its exactly how it seems
its exaclty how it seems
born to be your cold mean father
born to be one wicked mother
one wicked mother

until your aged, until your aged,
into an early grave, until your aged
your just a slave to the little wage
unless your born to be your cold mean father
born to be one wicked mother
one wicked mother
born to be your cold mean father
born to be one wicked mother
one wicked mother
one wicked mother
one wicked mother
