Blues Soul Session #02 - Peter Gunn Blues

Описание: Raw, soul-driven blues focused on feel and atmosphere. Part of the Blues Soul Sessions.

“Peter Gunn Blues” is a gritty, noir-leaning blues shuffle told in low voices and slow steps.
Walking bass, tremolo-soaked guitar, and tight restraint frame a backroom legend who never explains himself - and never needs to.

Down on Riverfront Road
Where the smoke hangs slow
There’s a man they mumble about
But they don’t say his name out loud

Black coat
Blue steel eyes
Plays it cool
Never tries
Leans back in that corner booth
Smiles once
You don’t want the truth

Bartender knows what he drinks
Pours it quick
Never blinks
Cards fall
Somebody cheats
Next thing
Boots on empty seats

Peter Gunn blues
When he walks in the room
Folks move
Yeah
The air gets tight
Hearts lose
You don’t gamble with the
Peter Gunn blues

Sirens sing down the block
Church bells
Broken clock
Cops ask
“You seen that man?”
Every face says
“Never have”

He don’t talk long
He don’t stay late
Slips through like a twist of fate
If you hear those slow steps behind
Pray your past don’t cross his mind

Peter Gunn blues
When he walks in the room
Folks move
Yeah
The air gets tight
Hearts lose
You don’t gamble with the
Peter Gunn blues

One glance
One nod
One wrong move
Meet God
He smiles
You’re spared
He frowns
Better say your prayers

Peter Gunn blues
When he walks in the room
Folks move
Yeah
The air gets tight
Hearts lose
You don’t gamble with the
Peter Gunn blues
