Call me up every time your feelin’ down Want me baby every times he’s not around Better quit your foolin’ You better quit your foolin’ baby You better quit your foolin’ this ain’t no life to live Send me a letter, almost every day Told you once babe, not into playin’ your game Better quit your foolin’ You better quit your foolin’ baby You better quit your foolin’ this ain’t no life to live Chorus Every time, you go that one step further I can’t save you baby, every time you cry my name lord lord You better quit your foolin’ this ain’t no life to live Chorus Repeat

How do you want me to cry When you say your gonna leave How do you want me to fly When your still holding my wings This ain't the first time baby, that I've been burned like this And it won't be the last time, that a women like you will really miss me Chorus Don't come knocking at my door When there ain't no score, to settle now If it's love that your fighting for, you might find it in the next town And when rain falls outside It will rain down in your heart And when you think you've found the one You still hold me to your heart But I won't turn back baby, if its the last thing I do You will be the last one to cry, when I give you these blues oh oh Chorus Solo/Chorus...

Street Blues 03:05
What you want You will get What money comes You will bet Walking the streets Like it’s no big deal Cause this life is short And you do your will Chorus But what is Life? If your heart can’t feel I said, what is life? If your heart can’t feel Don’t have the nerve To share your fear Don’t have the strength To wash all your tears You just got to scratch Oh this itch you feel Oh remember the heat Of your last hot meal Chorus / Solo / Chorus

Well, she's walking through the clouds, With a circus mind that's running wild, Butterflies and Zebras, And Moonbeams and fairy tales. That's all she ever thinks about. Riding with the wind. When I'm sad, she comes to me, With a thousand smiles she gives to me free. It's alright, she says it's alright, Take anything you want from me, Anything. Fly on little wing Organ Solo/ Guitar Solo

I believe, my baby’s gonna leave me I believe, my baby’s gonna go Back to that same old place Back to that same old face she calls love I can feel, I can feel it in her kiss I can see it, now it’s she I’m gonna miss Back to that same old place Back to that same old face she calls love Chorus I should have read the signal, I should have read the sign I should have read you leaving, I should have read the lies Back to that same old place, back to that same old face she calls love Now I’m paying, for a price so hard to bare and I’m praying, you will always live, to take care Back to that same old place Back to that same old face she calls love Chorus
6.
Got a feelin', got a feelin' so cold inside Got a feelin', got a feelin' so cold inside She comes home late at night and always wants to fight I smell trouble Got a feelin', every time you say goodbye Got a feelin', every time you say goodbye Now my touch don't mean a thing, now you have your diamond ring I smell trouble Come the morning sun baby, my life has just begun Come the morning sun baby, my life has just begun Now I've learnt this hard way, to find a brighter day Free from her trouble V3 ( repeats )

Troubled Man 04:33
Saved your picture for a rainy day Left this morning on this old highway With no words to say, my mind did the talking All the nights that we shared beneath the moon All the stars that made for big city lights Never could light up the world as much as your eyes lit my heart Got no dance left in my step All I got is this windy weather From dusk until dawn, all I've sworn in loving you Got no use in what tomorrow may bring Got no wine to drown your sorrow and sin Got no sunshine in your smile, with the ice around your heart, it won't let me be Chorus Troubled man is walking, don't know where to go ? Troubled man is walking, don't where's his home Troubled man is walking, don't know where to go ? Troubled man is walking, don't where's his home, don't know where to go ? Chorus
8.
I never meant to cause you any sorrow I never meant to cause you any pain I only wanted to one time to see you laughing I only wanted to see you Laughing in the purple rain Chorus Purple rain, purple rain Purple rain, purple rain Purple rain, purple rain Purple rain, purple rain I never wanted to be your weekend lover I just wanted to be some kind of friend Baby, I could never steal you from another It's such a shame our friendship had to end Chorus Honey, I know, I know I know times are changing It's time we all reach out For something new, that means you too You say you want a leader but you can’t seem to make up your mind It's such a shame our friendship had to end Chorus
9.
Only Love 04:08
Your tears were like raging sea's in my heart Never thought I would see this love fall apart Like a ship wreck out at sea, slowly drifting Along this coastal memory, that's never ending She's finally torn the last piece of my heart Like all the fallen shadows before her Like an enemy at war, that's played her final call She leaves my heart bleeding, as the rain begins to fall As the clouds slowly clear to this blue sky And we now pay the full price of our crimes If only we could surrender, to a power above Never will I forget her, my only love Outro... Only love, only love

REVIEWS

" Great man. Your voice has a little Bonamassa in it.. which is cool. Love the tune too. KILLER solo! "

- Steve Lukather ( Toto, Michael Jackson, Ringo Starr, G3 ) on the title track " Street Blues "

" On Street Blues SKL reveals himself to be the true triple threat. World class guitar playing and vocals but crucially the songs to sell it all. Awesome. "

- Paul J' O Brien ( Multi-award winning Australian Blues Guitarist )

Street Blues is a beautifully produced album that is a fantastic listening experience. Full of great original songs and choice covers. A perfect vehicle for Simon's clever writing, soulful singing and killer modern blues guitar playing. Love it ! "

- Steve Edmonds ( Guitarist to some of Australia's finest recording artists - Jimmy Barnes, Renee Geyer, Doug Parkinson, Billy Thorpe, Delta Goodrem and more )

" This is a very strong album from a seasoned player who has obviously worked hard. Impressive songwriting, soulful vocalist and a world class guitar player. "

- Darren Jack ( Multi-award winning Australian Blues Guitarist )

- Shane Pacey ( Voice of the Bondi Cigars )
