    He was at the Iridium in NYC and closed with this song. I thought I would never stop laughing. He was awesome and played at least six different instruments including the harmonica (with no hands for a while!). Don't miss a chance to see him.

    Adorably funny song! I knew nothing about Blind Boy Paxton until I happened to catch him in "American Epic Sessions" on PBS last month (unfortunately that full video has now expired 😢). My reaction was "who is this guy, I gotta check him out." He's AMAZING! I felt as though I'd stepped back about a century!!

    This song has progressed so well over the years, though I liked the lyrics he took out. I found Paxton years back when I stumbled upon him playing with another band, look up those gems! The singer he was with had such a beautiful voice. Bill Murray Experience, later known as Jessy Carolina and The Hot Mess.

    [Verse 1]
    I’m one of those guys
    Who let’s his eyes go rolling every now and then
    Check out 'dem girls from toes to curls
    And I’d love to find myself a ten
    My looks survived on fours and fives
    When I go on out for fun
    But last night in desperation
    I approached a minus one
    [Chorus]
    And she said no
    An ugly woman told me no
    Nothing make you feel quite as low
    As when an ugly woman tells you no
    Terrible!
    [Verse 2]
    I flashed my smile, did a little while
    We was talking face to face
    I found out that she was alone and free
    So I made just a slight reference over to my place
    I saw her frown, I slowed down
    I was charming you know I was ever so cool
    But when I reached in for the kill
    That bear said
    “Rrr! I’m nobody’s fool!”
    [Chorus]
    Oh she said no
    An ugly woman told me no
    Nothing make you feel quite as low
    As when an ugly woman tells you no
    [Verse 3]
    I was crushed inside
    I swallowed my pride
    But I wasn’t about to quit
    I showed her some little scar
    That I got in some little war
    And she softened up a teensy weensy eensy little bit
    I probed, I searched
    I mentioned church
    And I’m clearly Jewish
    And in fact I almost cried
    But when I put in my request
    She said “Request denied.”
    Ugly woman
    Terrible, terrible!
    My parting shot was:
    “I’ve only got about two weeks or less to live”
    You owe it to your country
    And it’s always better to give
    She looked at me
    I was gone for [?]
    She said, as the poor gal turned and go
    “Look here boy on a scale from one to ten
    Your an eight and ain’t got a chance to show.”
    She told me no
    How could she do it?
    An ugly woman told me no
    You can put that girl’s face in some dough
    And make gorilla cookies
    [Chorus]
    She said no
    An ugly woman told me no
    Nothing make you feel quite as low
    As when an ugly woman tells you no

      Oh no, I think you should read this article: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autism. I'm pretty sure that this is a developmental disorder that you have, and the first step you need to take now is reading that article and understanding your own limitations.
