Beard twiddling Muso needs help

[chunkolini]

'Some of them lies about it
some of them cries about it'

Radio 2, 19.08, 4-10-10 Tom Waits/funkesque blues rant, might be a reworking of an old blues number. Fabulous I have to buy it. DJ pillock may have mentioned shash on guitar among a host of other names. Sounded like a nastier version of little axe. I need an album title. Wifey piped up in the middle of his explanation, is this grounds for divorce.

Help please for a beard twiddling muso.
Chunko',

You can listen again on iplayer after the programme finishes usually and sometimes a list of recently played tracks from an artiste are listed like this so it might appear on here later. Man I just had to listen to Cemetery Polka now and can't stop laughing.

Aren't they lines from 'Spoonful' - at my age, that is by Cream. I suspect it may have originated from a US blues tune?

Spoonful indeed, covered by Cream among others, didn't Jack Bruce have a cracking voice...

It's a Willie Dixon song.

Yep - it's great stuff. When my pals and I were getting under-age served in our favourite music boozer around 1968/9, there were one or two local groups that did a pretty fair immitation. Beer and Cream, nice.

Willie Dixon, I shall have to find that and have a listen.
Was it a track on 'Fresh Cream' ?
