Threadsourced Blues Number

Ok folks, lets combine our creative juices in the one vessel (eew!) and create the first TB threadsourced blues song! Lets call this one Bassplayer Blues.

Progression is standard 12 bar blues:
I I I I7
IV IV7 I I
V7 IV7 I V7

First person starts by finishing the highly original opening lyric:
“Well I woke up this morning......”
Next peson copies+pastes the work so far then adds their line. One line only!
Lets see where this leads. Someone may even wish to record it when finished :bassist:

Well I woke Up This Mornin'.......
 
Well I woke Up This Mornin'
Got myself a gun
Cause my woman's back out whorin'
While I'm gettin' none.

So I took a swig o'Johnny
And I took a swig o' Jack,
I whipped out my pistol..
[del]and I said something that didn't rhyme or fit in with the rest of what I was sayin' at all.[/del]
and I started walking back...
 
Well I woke Up This Mornin'
Got myself a gun
Cause my woman's back out whorin'
While I'm gettin' none.

So I took a swig o'Johnny
And I took a swig o' Jack,
I whipped out my pistol..
and I started walking back...

Back at the shack...
Raised up the gun and fired a shot

Back at the shack...
Raised up the gun and fired a shot.
Oh lor', said I'm back at the shack,
 
bump

Well I woke Up This Mornin'
Got myself a gun
Cause my woman's back out whorin'
While I'm gettin' none.

And I took a swig o' Jack,

Back at the shack...
Raised up the gun and fired a shot.
Oh lor', said I'm back at the shack,
And the person I came for's not.
