Pin Stripes Fan Account This EP is just as awesome as the artwork and logo. The music is in the spirit of Janis Joplin, A Band Called Smith and Jefferson Airplane to give you a hint. The band backing up the fantastic lead vocalist Happy Betty is tight and very competent. Like the best of the 60s with updated sound quality!

I got up this morning About the break of day I think about my babe The one that went away I done lost all my money My friends and home are gone I’m gonna ask the good Lord What evil have I done? All I wanna do is just to sing the rhythm ‘n’ blues They are all getting crazy because I look so cool The blues is in my blood and in my veins And what you wanna see is that I act a bit insane This is why I sing the rhythm ‘n’ blues I don’t get up this morning I’ll stay in bed today Don’t think about my babe Don’t care he went away I have a lot of money My friends are here at home I’m gonna tell the good Lord You’re lucky I was born! I don’t want to sing anymore the rhythm ‘n’ blues Even when you’ve finished with the song you’re feeling blue The blues is in my heart and in my brain And though I love to sing it now I feel I get insane I don’t want to sing anymore the rhythm ‘n’ blues Even when you’ve finished with the song you’re feeling blue The blues is in my heart and in my brain And though I love to sing it now I feel I get insane This is why I sing the rhythm ‘n’ blues This is why I sing the rhythm ‘n’ blues (yes I like it!) This is why I like the rhythm ‘n’ blues

Why today everyone is free? You can be all you want to be People for people, no one in need No more illness, no mouth to feed If the devil is dead Who am i? I’m the only bad Who knows why? All this love will make you sick All this love, tell me, where’s the trick? Love will tear us all apart We’ve gotta get rid of it The devil is dead The devil is dead The devil is dead, you know And that’s what you’ll get No dictators, no saints or kings Militaries, kamikaze, volunteers No more grass, LSD or speed Up with clever actions, farewell evil deeds The devil is dead So who am i? Cause I am the bad D’you know why? The devil is dead The devil is dead The devil is dead, you know And that’s what you’ll get Who is the devil- Who is the devil- Love is the devil!
