Dengue Woman Blues
Fabulous blues sung and played with all his heart and soul.
The guitar solo at the beginning is provocative enough for serious bedroom athletics.
Having suffered through dengue fever twice while living in the Caribbean, I can easily identify with the unique lyrics which describe the horrible misery of fever, bone breaking aches in the bones as if already broken in a thousands pieces, coupled with the delirious malady of being forced in bed but the desire to plunge into the deep blue sea and never surface again. I had dengue fever so bad once that after a trip to the doctor, I was later found at 4am asleep on the beach in my dinghy, unable to summon the energy to get myself and dinghy out to my waiting boat on anchor.
Whether Jimmie Vaughan is referring to a dangerous woman or the dengue disease is anyone's guess, but the song is a must have for serious blues lovers and those amassing enravishing tunes for the bedroom.
Lyrics:
Dengue woman
Stay away from me
Dengue woman
Stay away from me
You got your fever and you rush
Over me
That's why
Everyday you bring me misery
Everyday you give me misery
I think about jumpin'
Jumpin' in the deep blue see
You got me all crazy
I can't get outta bed
Bones are achin'
Bad thoughts in my head
Dengue woman
Stay away from me
I've got your aches and things
Over me
