@EvieTres - My Love X 6 In The Morning

Hi there! I'm Dina Kelly, and I’m thrilled to share my personal take on this timeless classic originally performed by Janis Joplin and written by Kris Kristofferson and Fred Foster. This demo is a heartfelt tribute to the free-spirited soul of Bobby McGee.

I’ve infused this version with my own style, balancing raw emotion and soulful melodies to make it uniquely mine. I hope you feel the same freedom and nostalgia that this song embodies every time I sing it.

Let me know what you think—I’d love to hear your thoughts! If you enjoy it, feel free to like, share, and follow for more music. 🎶

Inspired by Lonnie Johnson´s style. From the Dallas (TX) sessions, June 20th 1937

I'm a drunken hearted man 
my life seem so misery 
I'm the drunken hearted man 
my life seem so misery 
And if I could change my way of livin' 
it t'would mean so much to me 


I been dogged and I been driven 
eve' since I left my mother's home 
I been dogged and I been driven 
eve' since I left my mother's home 
And I can't see no reason why 
that I can't leave these no-goods womens alone 


My father died and left me 
my poor mother done the best that she could 
My father died and left me 
my poor mother done the best she could 
Every man likes that game you call love 
but it don't mean no man no good 
Now, I'm the drunken hearted man 
and sin was the cause of it all 
spoken: Oh, play 'em now 
I'm a drunken hearted man 
and sin was the cause of it all 
And the day that you get weak for no-good women 
that's the day that you bound to fall

Drunken Hearted Man

"Hideaway" Written by Freddy King 

I met Jonas Polidoro in London, he was from Naples, Italy. We used to get together in my house in Dalston and spend a few hours every week playing old classics using my Melodija Archtop guitar from the 1950s and my Dobro Hound Dog resonator. In those days I was attending Music College in Covent Garden and I had put behind electric guitars for a while to focus on fingerpicking Delta and Chicago Blues in acoustic instruments. 

We used to get out busking with nasty weather and good spirits around Carnaby Street, Soho and Oxford Circus in London and you could hear us any given evening playing our Blues and collecting coins and wrinkled notes. 

We made these recordings that I am now sharing in one of those cold and grey evenings of London at my home, using a small BOSS BR recording unit and they are presented as they were captured. We did the recording just for the sake of it and I am not partial for music to stay stored in a cold hard disk, I rather share it since the quality is not bad, even though very far from a real studio recording. 

Then one day we took separate ways due to life and I haven't heard of him again. Hopefully I will through these four songs that you can hear and download for free.

Since you been gone I've had time to myself 
Haven't even tried to find somebody else 
When you told me you were leavin' it almost came as good news 
It may sound funny but it's true 
I think I'm better off with the blues 

Now I must admit that I miss you sometimes 
Not a day goes by that you don't cross my mind 
But at the same time I think of all the hell you put me through 
Yeah, it's the lesser of two evils 
I think I'm better off with the blues 

I know some day I'll wake up and this blues will be gone 
I'll forget about you and how everything went wrong 
But if you hadda stayed I'd be dead in my tracks 
Now, I still love you, baby, but I don't want you back 

Tonight I'm gonna go down to the sad side of town 
Listen to 'em play the blues when the sun goes down 
And I know just what to say when someone asks about you 

I'll say, yeah, we had our good times 
But I think I'm better off with the blues 
Yeah, if I had to say, 
I say I'm better off with the blues

These men that I've been seeing, baby 
Got their soul up on the shelf 
You know they could never love me 
When they can't even love themselves 
But I need someone to love me 
Someone to really understand 
Who won't put himself above 
Who just loves me like a man 

I've never seen such losers, Darlin' 
Even though I tried 
To find a man who could take me home 
Stead of takin' me for a ride 
And I need someone to love me 
I know you can 
Believe me when I tell you 
You can love me like a man 

They all want me to rock them 
Like my back ain't got no bone 
I want a man to rock me 
Like my back bone was his own 
Darlin', I know you can 
Believe me when I tell you 
You can love me like a man 

I come home sad and lonely 
Feel like I wanna cry 
I want a man to hold me 
Not some fool to ask me why 
I know you can 
Don't you put yourself above me 
You just love me like a man

RAMBLIN' MATT was born in 1966 in Valencia, Spain and he has been involved in bands and performing since the early eighties. Right now is one half of the upcoming band based in Dénia (Alicante) Sara Gee & Ramblin Matt, with three albums since 2013 along her partner in life Sara Gee. Matt is a composer, arranger, guitar and slide player and singer and his first bands were rockabilly outfits in a time when only few dared to play these type of music in Spain, with bands like The Dalton Brothers and Ruzafa's Incorregibles. He formed Blackmailers with soul brother and gifted guitar player Silver Borras in 1998 after returning of living in the US for five years (Chicago, LA, Austin). Between 2006 and 2013 he has been a performing musician in London with his Vintage Rockabilly trio Los Jailbreakers, as a solitary act or with The Ramblin Matt Trio. He returned to Spain in mid 2013 when he meet Sara in a gig in Valencia and decided to stay for good after a tenure of over nearly 20 years away from his land of origin.

Matt writes his own material and also plays bold and faithful to the original arrangements of country & delta blues classics from the likes of Robert Johnson, Big Bill Broonzy, Skip James, Son House, Blind Lemon Jefferson, Rev. Gary Davis, and Mississippi Fred McDowell among others featuring most of the times only lead vocals and guitar, played with or without slide.
