Broke Neck Blues - Black Eyed Blues (feat. The Broke Neck Reds) Lyrics

Ripped up and torn,
Was the beater I won
Go see the police that day

My woman's gone mad,
I ain't angry, I'm sad
I said to that pretty lady, cop
I'd lay

Oh, I didn't touch her,
All I saw was a whirl and blur
As a fist found my face,
Then a clatter

I reeled from that vicious blow
And fell to the kitchen floor
A trippin' and a fallin'
On mama's platter

There weren't no excuse
This here's man abuse
Her press-on's
Done left me in tatters

Just look here at me
Why can't y'all see
Me and my black eyes
Matter

Oh, there weren't no excuse
This here's man abuse
Her press-on's
Done left me in tatters

Just look here at me
Why can't y'all see
Me and my black eyes
Matter

Oh, I didn't touch her
All I saw was a whirl and blur
As a fist found my face
Then a clatter

I reeled from that vicious blow
And fell to the kitchen floor
A trippin' and a fallin'
On mama's platter

There weren't no excuse
This here's man abuse
Her press-on's
Done left me in tatters

Just look here at me
Why can't y'all see
Me and my black eyes
Matter
