This is one of our really old blues songs that we thought we would re-introduce by making a video for it. It was recorded live in 2001 at JBR Studio in Essex. Featuring Stu Cooper on drums, Bob Bampton on bass, Joe Murphy on Hammond organ and Paul Killington on guitar (incidentally, Paul was playing an ancient Gibson SG once owned and played by Joe Cocker).

'Long Time Dyin'

It's over, now it's dead n' gone
Ain't comin' home to me
Now the day is done
It would be easier
Just to let it go
But that don't mean a thing
When you're all alone
And it's a long, long time
Long time dyin'

Can't help it If I think of you
While I'm just sittin' here
What else can I do?
And it's a long time
Long time dyin'

I can't help wishin' I was strong
I can't help wonderin'
Where you've gone, yeah
Cos if you knew how much I need yah baby
Then you'd come back here, yeah
Where you belong, oh yeah
Where you belong, yeah

Won't make it If it ain't with you
What kind of life is this
What am I livin' through?
It's a long, long time
Long time dyin', ooh yeah
And I wonder
Am I gonna fall apart
Oh I'm not gonna make it through
With this empty heart
Yeah it's a long, long time
Long time dyin'

Yeah I wonder, on this rocky road
Will I, will I find you, take off this heavy load
Yeah it's a long, long time
Long time dyin'
Let me tell you
Let me tell you baby
Let me tell you what I'm gonna do
If I find you, Lord I'll make it up to you
Cos it's a long, long time
Long time dyin'....
