Подробнее о видео

Album: Portrait - Lyrics: my baby left me and she didn't even say why yes, my baby she left me and she didn't even say why

I don't have nothing to do, saying nothing by
yes she did, listen, let it rain

But I don't love you no more, sit back baby
with the game to the end of our road

she said I just dunno, lord I just dunno no no more
listen now, she said now you have got the blues

listen its because of you, she said baby if you got the blues
Don't you know its because of you, my baby left me,
yeah she left me and she didn't even say goodbye

Say baby many nights I sit at home alone
Waiting for you baby, Waiting for you to come home
Now if you got the blues, don't you know its because of you

listen here baby, my baby left me and she didn't say goodbye
yes my baby left me and she didn't even say goodbye

I know my woman love me, but I just dunno why she left me
Say always didn't gone baby and with your friends

But you know I need you, right here with me
Oh baby please, let me be, now that you have got the blues baby

yes, you know because of you, lord, I know I love my baby
And I'm gonna beg her please come back home

I'm gonna beg her baby baby baby, please come home back to me
I know I love you baby, so please come home back to me

🎸 Lonnie Shields is truly one of the finest of the next generation of the blues. He cut his blues teeth performing with The Jelly Roll Kings. His recording career has led him through a number of studios from Memphis and Clarksdale to tours all over the world. This Delta born guitarist, singer and songwriter's style is just the opposite of his demeanor. Lonnie comes across as a mild mannered southern gentleman with a laid back nature. On stage he is transformed into an extraordinary entertainer moving to his music and feeding off the energy of the audience. His music is deeply rooted in gospel, soul and R&B while his sound, like his soul is never too far from the home of the blues.
Lonnie was the first Delta artist that Rooster blues picked up after moving to Clarksdale, Mississippi in 1987. His CD “Portrait” was released in 1992 (named Album of the Year by Living Blues Magazine) and reads like a who’s who of Delta Blues Performers. Over the years, Lonnie has played with many Blues greats including Elvin Bishop, Sam Carr, Sonny Rhodes, Eddie Shaw and Big Jack Johnson just to name a few. In the years following his release of “Portrait” Lonnie’s career skyrocketed. He has performed all over the world and has released a string of impressive CDs featuring his soulful, “down home Blues” with a contemporary, yet juke-joint feel.
Lonnie’s hard work has paid in a fine compilation of music and a reputation of a man with the heart and soul of the Blues. Lonnie now resides just outside of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania but always has and always will be the Keeper of The Blues wherever he lays his guitar.
Currently, Lonnie is working on a new album featuring a young blues based artist, Jesse Loewy. This upcoming CD will consist of Lonnie's original material in addition to a tribute to BB King, Tyrone Davis, and Johnny Taylor, plus a bonus track in honor of Al Green (all of whom were extremely influential and inspirational to Lonnie's musical career).
