Nice smooth blues vocal. Interesting how piano playing singers had to have the mic stand placed to their right - so they could turn to the side, in order to face the audience. Fats Domino being another case in point.With the much smaller electronic pianos, the piano player could face the audience without turning his neck.But, of course the acoustic pianos sound better. Later on, acoustic piano players did not worry so much about not facing the audience when they sang.
Never heard this song till I was in my late sixties and fell in love with it. Thought of another stanza that would fit right in. "Went to work this morning. I was two hours late. Boss man said your job is gone. We start work at eight".
