Grande Lou Donaldson!


[Lonnie Smith e Lou Donaldson]

Quem viu ontem no Mezzo o concerto do saxofonista Lou Donaldson não deixou certamente de reparar num blues que este cantou e aproveitou para gozar com George Bush e as supostas armas de destruição em massa.

A letra começou como de habitual...

My woman and I got married
Raised a great big family
We had twenty children
And not one of them looked a damn thing like me

... mas depois veio a parte nova:

I went to the White House
Sat in the President's chair
George Bush, Jr. walked in and said :
Lou Donaldson, I'm glad that you're here.

Seguiram-se os versos sobre a ditas armas, que infelizmente não consegui escrever, mas ainda vou tentar encontrar.
