MUSIC: Three Tune Tuesday 69 - 3 Songs about "A Cheater is Discovered!" (2 Covers and an Original!)

Hello everybody on HIVE, and especially the Music Community. My name is Jasper and I'm writing (and singing) to you from Cape Town, South Africa.

This is my fourth week contributing to "Three Tunes Tuesday", started by @ablaze.

I am trying to stick to a set pattern, where I perform 2 cover songs (written by famous artists) and 1 original song (written by me) around a theme. This week I've chosen the emotionally-charged theme of a cheater being discovered!

The first song is by Carrie Underwood, who won the fourth season of American Idol back in 2005, but unlike many Idol winners, actually followed that up by releasing some Country Music bangers like "Before He Cheats", and some Grammy awards!

The second song is by another grammy winner, a blues musician by the name of Robert Cray. His song "Right Next Door (Because of Me)" tells the classic cheater story, but this time from the perspective of "the other man"...

Finally we come to my own original song called "Who's Been Messing with my Baby?". To the guitarists out there who don't recognise my chord shapes, I tune the guitar differently to play this song. The tuning is called DADGAD and I would encourage you to try it out! In fact, I have written a HIVE post where I explain that it's not that hard and give the basic chord shapes for you to try so please check that out here if you're interested!

Lyrics

Well I come home, do I find you?
No I don't what did you do... this time?
I see your phone on the bed
With messages from another man... he's dead!

Who's been messing with my baby?
Who? I should be the only one!
Who's been messing with my baby?
Who? Because he'd better run, run, run!

Who...?!?!
(Harmonica)

Black clouds of thought flow through my head
Are you in another bed? He's dead!
I feel the rage come over me
It's not the way it's supposed to be... He's DEAD!

Who's been messing with my baby?
Who? I'm gonna get my gun!
Who's been messing with my baby?
Who? Because he'd better run, run, run!

Who...?!?!
(Harmonica)

KAKAKA...

Oooh... I just shot my baby...
Oooh... I ran and got my gun...
Ooooh... I just shot the other man too...
OOOOHH... WHAT HAVE I DONE?

Thank you so much for listening! I really appreciate it and hope to see you back here again next Tuesday!

THE END
