I received an email today that describes How to Sing and Play the Blues. It was very funny but unfortunately, I don’t know who wrote it so I can’t give proper credit. I forwarded it to a few music lovers and musicians and one of them, Ken Stark, Owner of Stark & Associates, a St. Louis sales development firm, replied back in less than five minutes with his original lyrics to “Too Much Pretendin’ Blues”. Next time your salespeople are singin’ the blues, have them sing this instead!
The Too Much Pretendin’ Blues
Woke up this mornin was way before dawn. Woke up this mornin my pipeline was gone. Don’t know how it happened. Got dem not enuf doin And too much pretendin blues. Was king of my world bout a year ago. Then things out there they got really slow. The man don’t pay me when the cash don’t flow. Got dem not enuf doin and too much pretendin blues. When nobody’s buyin ain’t much I can do Cep sit around cryin just thinkin bout who Would take someone on who wakes up each dawn With dem Not enough doin and too much pretendin blues.(c) Copyright 2008 Dave Kurlan
