She took my hand
And tried to make me
understand
That she would always be
there,
But I looked away
And she ran away from me
today;
I'm such a lonely man.
It came as no surprise to
me
That she'd leave me in
misery.
It seemed like only
yesterday
She made a vow that she'd
never walk away.
First Verse
And if it seemed a sin
To love another man's
woman, baby,
I guess I'll keep on
sinning
Loving her, Lord, till my
very last day.
But I looked away
And she ran away from me
today;
I'm such a lonely man.

USA
Union is a 1970 album by bluesmusician
John Mayall,
featuring Harvey Mandelon guitar, Larry
Tayloron bass and Don "Sugarcane" Harrison violin. The album was recorded on July 27 & 28th, 1970 at
Larrabee Studios in LA and released by Polydorlater in the same year.
At
the end of the sixties John Mayall was residing in Laurel Canyon, Los Angeles, Californiaand had developed connections with local musicians, befriending
Harvey Mandel and Larry Taylor, who had both just departed Canned Heat.
Taylor had appeared on one track of Mayall's previous album, Empty Rooms,
the only studio recordings of his "Turning Point" band, and stayed on
to replace Stephen Thompson (with whom he duetted on "To a
Princess"); Mandel essentially replaced acoustic guitar specialist Jon Mark,
and electric violinist Harris replaced saxophonist Johnny Almond.
In the USA Union liner notes, Mayall noted that, after the Turning Point band
broke up, he'd played a British music festival with an all-star lineup and then
needed to form a new band swiftly when Polydor Records pressed him for a new
album.
Man's
a filthy creature
Raping the land and water and the air
Tomorrow may be too late
Now's the time that you must be aware
Nature's disappearing
Polluted death is coming, do you care
Garbage going nowhere
Soon the dumps will spread to your front door
Lakes and rivers stagnant
Nothing lives or grows like years before
Nature's disappearing
The world you take for granted soon no more
Read about pollution
Make manufacturers uncomfortable
Boycott at the market
Containers that are non-returnable
Aluminum, glass and plastic
Eternal waste that's not destructible
We're a generation
That may live out our natural time
But as for all our children
Born to suffocate in human slime
Nature's disappearing
And we are guilty of this massive crime

His guitar playing is noted
for its dark,minor-keysound, played in an open D-minor tuning with an
intricatefingerpickingtechnique. James first recorded forParamount Recordsin 1931, but these recordings sold poorly,
having been released during theGreat Depression, and he drifted into obscurity. After a long absence
from the public eye, James was "rediscovered" in 1964 by three blues
enthusiasts, helping further theblues and
folk music revivalof the
1950s and early 1960s. During this period, James appeared at folk and blues
festivals, gave concerts around the country and recorded several albums for
various record labels.
His songs have influenced
generations of musicians, having been adapted or covered byKansas Joe McCoy,Robert
Johnson,Alan Wilson,Cream,Deep Purple,Chris Thomas King,Alvin
Youngblood Hart, theDerek Trucks
Band,Beck,Big Sugar,Eric Clapton,John Martyn,Lucinda WilliamsandRory Block. He has been hailed as "one of the seminal
figures of the blues."
Layin' sick, honey, on my bed
I'm layin' sick, honey, and on my bed
I'm layin' sick, honey, and on my bed
I used to have some friends but they wish that I were
dead
In awful pain and deep in misery
Awful pain and deep in misery
Awful pain and deep in misery
I ain't got nobody to come and see about me
And every dog, baby, got a day
And every dog, baby, got a day
Every dog, baby, got a day
But I said, "Please, don't you treat me this-a
way"
The doctor came, lookin' very sad
The doctor came, lookin' very sad
The doctor came, lookin' very sad
He diagnosed my case and said it was awful bad
He walked away, mumblin' very low
He said, "He may get better but he'll never get
well no more
I hollered, "Lord, oh Lord, Lord, Lordy, Lord
Oh Lordy, Lord, Lord, Lord
I been so badly misused and treated just like a
dog"
I've got a long trip and I'm just too weak to ride
I've got a long trip and I'm just too weak to ride
