Famous Blues Covers
Gary Moore was born on this month, April 4 and we'd like to remember him with "Oh Pretty Woman", a song featured in his fantastic Still Got The Blues (1990).
Albert King was the special guest on this song and the early inspiration for Moore, who firstly heard it on King's Born Under a Bad Sign album.

"Oh, pretty woman she's the rising sun
Says all your cheap paint and powder ain't gonna help you none
'Cause she's a pretty woman right down to the bone
So you just might as well still leave your skin alone
Pretty woman
What's the matter with you?
Can't make you love me, no matter what I do
Oh, pretty woman what you trying to do?
You kept on foolin' around 'til I got stuck on you
So you just drop that mess and come down off your throne
Stop using my poor heart for just a stepping stone
Pretty woman
What's the matter with you?
Can't make you love me, no matter what I do
Oh, pretty woman that's all right for you
Now you just go on doing what you want to do
But someday when you thing you have got it made
You get in water deep enough so you can't wade
Pretty woman
What's the matter with you?
Can't make you love me, no matter what I do."
