Earl Hooker, I stay mad

Okay, say thanks. This one's not easy to find.

You've got to wade through Skeeter Davis for a while to catch up with it on the 'Tube. Note to YouTubers: Putting the "Earl Hooker" before the "I Stay Mad" was probably not a good idea.

"The other night, I spilled some milk on the floor,
She said I had to pack my rags and go,
She yelled at me, and I yelled back,
I said I done told you a million times what about those nasty cracks."

What a sweet song! They sure don't write them like that anymore. Earl can sure play the hell out of that guitar, too. This is a Fredson Classic right here.
