Bitten By The Blues by Eliza Neals Lyrics
[Verse 1: Eliza Neals]
Born in a town called Detroit City
Singin with my sisters lookin oh so pretty
Daddy was a military man didn’t like his girls in a rock n roll band
One night BB got a hold of me
Set me soul on fire
He just set me free
Don’t judge me till you walk in my shoes
I’m a rock n roll girl
Whose been bitten by the blues
[Chorus: Eliza Neals]
Bitten by the blues but I still love rock n roll
Please don’t make me choose they both saved my soul
Bitten by the blues but I still love rock n roll
Please don’t make me choose
I been bitten by the blues
[Guitar 8 bars]
[Verse 2: Eliza Neals]
Everyday was a revival singing songs every night for survival
Koko and Etta paved my way Janis and Jimi told me what to say
Just like religion it saved my soul while I was driving drunk all the way to muscle shoals
Don’t judge me cause you’ll just be a damn fool
I’m a rock n roll girl who been bitten by the blues
[Chorus 1X]
[Guitar solo 16 bars]
[Bridge: Eliza Neals]
You got to follow that voice
The one deep down inside
You really ain’t got no choice
If you’ve been bitten by the blues
You have set yourself free
A’int got nothing left to lose
You been bitten by the blues
[Chorus and out]

Please don’t make me choose they both saved my soul
Bitten by the blues but I still love rock n roll
