Earl Hooker

Earl Hooker (January 15, 1929 – April 21, 1970) was an American Chicago blues guitarist, perhaps best known for his slide guitar playing. Considered a "musician's musician", Hooker performed with blues artists such as Sonny Boy Williamson II, Junior Wells, and John Lee Hooker (a cousin) as well as fronting his own bands. An early player of the electric guitar, Hooker was influenced by the modern urban styles of T-Bone Walker and Robert Nighthawk. As a band leader, he recorded several singles and albums, in addition to recording with well-known artists. His "Blue Guitar", a popular Chicago area slide-guitar instrumental single, was later overdubbed with vocals by Muddy Waters and became the popular "You Shook Me". more »

You got to lose
You can't win all the time
You got to lose
You can't win all the time
Well I know pretty baby

I see trouble comin' down the line
Well I was out on the streets baby
I did not have no money
Don't you worry pretty baby
I'll be back on my feet soon honey

You got to lose
You can't win all the time
Well I know pretty baby
I see trouble comin' down the line

You got to lose
You can't win all the time
You got to lose
You can't win all the time
Yes I know pretty baby

I see trouble comin' down the line
Yeah I was out on the streets
I did not have no friends
I didn't have no money
And nothing I could spend
You got to lose

You can't win all the time
Well I know pretty baby
I see trouble comin' down the line
