RORY GALLAGHER - Pistol slapper blues

You find this acoustic song on the "Live! in Europe"-album from 1972,

not an original Rory-composition, but a fine work-out of theold Blind

Boy Fuller song. Rory himself played it for years.

I think for the '72 recording he used his Martin acoustic,later indeed

he prefered a restaurated 30er National.

A little part towards the end I couldn't finger out yet, sorry.

Well I'd know my dog

anywhere I hear him bark

Well, I'd know my rider if I see her in the dark

ain't it cold for you, mother

when you say you don't love me?

Well that's alright woman, you gonna need my help someday

you didn't say you didn't love me

when you were stretched out across my bed

you're drinkin' moonshine whisky and talking all outta your

head

ain't but two kinda people

in this world that I can't stand

that's a lying woman and a cheatin', knockin' man

Well, I feel like snapping

my pistol in your face

I'm gonna let the graveyard be your resting place

Well I'd know my dog

anywhere I hear him bark

Well, I'd know my rider if I see her in the dark
