Great ! In these days of 'The Voice , where singers [admittedly some very good singers ] try to show off HOW MUCH they can sing , with a stack of 'hey, look at me' vocal gymnastics, it's good to hear a man who still trusts the melody and the lyric to carry the song.
Finally nailed this myself !... well... I wouldn't post a vid of myself... just yet..ha ha But I was kinda happy with my version, 'til just now when I came back to listen to Ray again... Apart from all my other deficiencies, I had Totally forgotten about the fuckin harmonica !!! Back to the drawing board...
went to see her laid out to meet her saints She was dressed in white, low cut silk and lace Even her mama said she was always trouble Promise a man everything, give him half and charge him double [Chorus] We all gonna bust loose One of these days We all got to stay loose Come what may We all wanna cut loose On payday We ain't ever gonna break loose Of these rock and roll ways [Verse 2] The girl walked like she owned Bourbon Street And in those days she had grown men kneeling at her feet She took to an old profession as the source of revenue Now all she's taking with her is a dress from Saks Fifth Avenue [Chorus] We all gonna bust loose One of these days We all got to stay loose Come what may We all wanna cut loose On payday We ain't ever gonna break loose Of these rock and roll ways
@TheOneEyedHound For example, the heart felt comment right above here that I wrote 3 months ago. .. Other fans of Ray can read my sincerity and must have been voting my comment up. Thanks. I'm sorry I was sarcastic to you, OK?
Ray, did you really know her ? I mean is it about a real friend? Because I just about made myself cry trying to play this and I didn't know her. So how the fuck can you perform it if without choking up? Of course I am very drunk... and stoned... Sorry, I mean tired and emotional (still a big tough guy) ha ha Thanks agaim Ray Ray. Love from London (You Gotta come here man!)
@TheOneEyedHound WHOAH There!! My angry young friend. Take a joke Man.... If you LOOK around HERE and some of Ray's other videos on tube You'll spot my handle. If you read ANY of my other comments you will find I have the greatest respect for Ray and all his work. I'm about the same age as him and I think we've both done plenty of drink n drugs in our lives... I AM NOT Saying they are a good thing and I believe YOU ARE RIGHT to stay away from them..So take a Chill Pill Dude! (That's a joke).
@TheOneEyedHound When someone apologises to YOU after you called them arrogant scum etc, The polite thing to do is accept the apology with humour and grace. I'm bored with this now. I'm outta here. Have a nice enjoyable long life kid... I MEAN it TOP TIPS...Lighten up. Try to get jokes, even ones against you... Learn guitar.
Ray Wylie Hubbard is a Texas icon! Great music
A true breed apart from mainstream songwriters, music . Ray Wylie Hubbard is a gem that shines like no other..
This is how country, rock, folk should sound! Reminds me of the good Texas country that is hard to find.

This song gives me chills. That's what a great songwriter can do.
I'm not sure I can even express how great I think this is.
Indeed, Ray is a treasure that's for sure.
That guitar was made just for his voice Gives me the chills
Thank you Music Fog for continuing to bring us the best of Americana. RWH is a gem.
this recording is a beauty
Thanks Ray ! Great song writing ...
A true poet laureate
Incomparable body of work. one of the reasons we look to your country to come through.
The best .......still making great music.
I so love this song. It made me cry.
honest music
great song Ray!
Great song !!
This is so good...gotta love Ray...thanks!
Bust Loose 🙌👏🏼🎶😎
Heard this on Sirius Outlaw Country station. Sooo good!
Same!
Its like someone cut him and this song poured out...amazing
Reminds me of a crazy ex of mine that I could never stay mad at for long. Like my Dad said "Those crazy girls are a lot of fun, until they go crazy".
RWH oh yeh!
RWH just keeps getting better
Finally nailed this myself !... well... I wouldn't post a vid of myself... just yet..ha ha
But I was kinda happy with my version,
'til just now when I came back to listen to Ray again...
Apart from all my other deficiencies,
I had Totally forgotten about the fuckin harmonica !!!
Back to the drawing board...
The electric guitar version of this pales in comparison...just...can't...get...enough
That I couldn't tell you But I'll bet they've listened and heard of each other
@warchild1976 Hi, That'll be a Gibson J 45 "The Workhorse".
@warchild1976 PS: It's those guitars which are nicknamed the "workhorse"...
Not me, I'm a work-shy lazy bastard ha ha
The trick is to watch the video and stay out of the comment section if you're easily upset
I would love to see that!
Did Keith or Tom ever record with Ray?
the start sounds like my mom gone not forgoten
went to see her laid out to meet her saints
She was dressed in white, low cut silk and lace
Even her mama said she was always trouble
Promise a man everything, give him half and charge him double
[Chorus]
We all gonna bust loose
One of these days
We all got to stay loose
Come what may
We all wanna cut loose
On payday
We ain't ever gonna break loose
Of these rock and roll ways
[Verse 2]
The girl walked like she owned Bourbon Street
And in those days she had grown men kneeling at her feet
She took to an old profession as the source of revenue
Now all she's taking with her is a dress from Saks Fifth Avenue
[Chorus]
We all gonna bust loose
One of these days
We all got to stay loose
Come what may
We all wanna cut loose
On payday
We ain't ever gonna break loose
Of these rock and roll ways
Ray Wylie tremendous. Too bad for America most of you don’t know who he is. Read his autobiography.
Hey, if anyone knows a version of this song with drums and what-not, I'm going to assume it was studio, could you send me the link?

Yeah Keith would be great add some more "chunk" to the rhythm and Tom Waits wouldn't hurt being there either
iam the first to say badassd. and the last
is it just me or do all artist on music fog usually play that same ole gibson lol
@longjonwhite Wait, wait, you're about the same age as him, and you act about the same age as me?
I think we can see who has the upper hand here.
He needs to hook up with Paul Thorn !!!!!!
@TheOneEyedHound WHOAH There!! My angry young friend. Take a joke Man....

Why do I here Mick Jagger singing this? It's a great song by Hubbard, but it needs Keith in the background...
