Here I sit cheap wine pouring
playing the blues is G.
Smoking a cigarette smoking, a women
looking at me.
The drums start, the snare
sneaks into rhythmic beats
accompanying every note.
I'd just like this to be in a blues beat.
Here I sit,
drinking cheap wine.
Smoking a cigarette,
she's looking at me.
The above lines can work longer too...
Here I sit, drinking cheap wine.
Smoking a cigarette, she's looking at me.
more towards the end, you start hitting some of the beat.
like here:
Babe when you got the blues all day,
the rain going to wash that smile away.
...
Langston Hughes is a really good person to read in this area.
Here's beginning to "Life is Fine":
I went down to the river,
I set down on the bank.
I tried to think but couldn't,
So I jumped in and sank.
I came up once and hollered!
I came up twice and cried!
If that water hadn't a-been so cold
I might've sunk and died.
