[Spoken:]

And after three days of drinking at Durbahlove, I just get an inkling to go on home. So I'm walking down Coldharbour Lane, head hung low; three or four in the morning; the sun's coming up and the birds are out singing. I let myself into my pad. Wend my way up that spiral staircase and stretch myself out nice on the chesterfield. Pithecanthropus Erectus already on the CD player and I push that remote button to sublimity. And I listen to the sweet, scultural rhythms of Charles Mingus. And J.R. Monterose and Jackie McLean duet unknown saxophones and the sound makes its way out of the window, mingling with the traffic noises outside, you know, and all of a sudden I'm overcome by a feeling of brief mortality. 'Cause I'm getting on in the world. Coming up on forty-one years. Forty-one stoney, grey steps towards the grave, you-know, the box, awaits its grisly load and I'm gonna be food for worms. And just like Charles Mingus wrote that beautiful piece of music 'Epitaph' for Eric Dolphy. I say "so long Eric, so long John Coltrane and Charles Mingus, , so long Duke Ellington and Lester Young, so long Billie Halliday and Ella Fitzgerald, so long Jimmy Reed, so long Muddy Waters, and so long Howling Wolf.

[Sung:]

I'm gonna take you down

Deep down to the front lines

You woke up this morning

Got yourself a gun,

Mama always said you'd be

The Chosen One.

She said: You're one in a million

You've got to burn to shine,

But you were born under a bad sign,

With a blue moon in your eyes.

You woke up this morning

All that love had gone,

Your Papa never told you

About right and wrong.

But you're looking good, baby,

I believe you're feeling fine,(shame about it),

Born under a bad sign

With a blue moon in your eyes.

Chorus

You woke up this morning

Got a blue moon in your eyes

You woke up this morning

Got a blue moon in your eyes

You woke up this morning

The world turned upside down,

Thing's ain't been the same

Since the Blues walked into town.

But you're one in a million

You've got that shotgun shine. (shame about it)

Born under a bad sign,

With a blue moon in your eyes.

You woke up this morning

Got a blue moon in your eyes

You woke up this morning

Got a blue moon in your eyes

When you woke up this morning everything you had was gone. By half past ten your head was going ding-dong.

Ringing like a bell from your head down to your toes,

like a voice telling you there was something you should

know. Last night you were flying but today you're so low

- ain't it times like these that make you wonder if

you'll ever know the meaning of things as they appear to

the others; wives, mothers, fathers, sisters and

brothers. Don't you wish you didn't function, don't you wish you

didn't think beyond the next paycheck and the next little

drink? Well you do so make up your mind to go on, cos

when you woke up this morning everything you had was gone.

woke up this morning,

woke up this morning,

woke up this morning,

You wanna be the Chosen One.

woke up this morning,

woke up this morning,

woke up this morning,

You got yourself a gun.

For #1guy2be , this is proof positive that producer driven music can adequately deliver organic authenticity. It sounds straight out of the bayou, but came out of one guy's head. The Soprano's just drew attention to them.

If you're young like me, the next time you go on a all night drinking binge till dawn and you wake up in some random persons house you know. And you can feel that ache in the back of your head...you can smell the stench of your cologne mixed with liquor coupled with some chick's perfume and the stench of cigarettes, all reminders of the night before. Hazy with memories you stumble out the front door. You notice you are missing some article of clothing...sock, shoe or maybe even missing your wallet. But you don't care. You grab the smashed box if cigarettes out of your back pocket and light one of the bent and crooked fuckers up, stumble half drunk to your piece of shit car, play this song and suddenly it all makes sense.That sickening feeling in your stomach, that ache in your head, your sun glasses haphazardly strewn about your face, the smell of rust and burning oil exhaust from your shit car...it was all worth it to listen to this song. It was all worth it.So the next time you wake up on one of those mornings, listen to this version of the song and you'll know exactly how the man at the beginning feels. Alive and dead at the same time.

Still at 30 automatic feeling I was healthy and immortal, 41 seemed soooooo far away now it's five YRS PAST THAT NOW..... I'm paraplegic from a near fatal car wreck, now I REALLY FEEL the middle Ages creep setting in. MESSAGE: CARPE DIEM YOUNGSTERS !!!! Rip JAMES GANDOLFINI at 51. , Robin Williams...
