The Depravation Blues
Yearning Echoes: Navigating Deprivation in Glenn Crytzer's Melodic Tale
Lyrics
I've got those depravation blues
I am experiencing feelings of deprivation.
Don't know what to do
I am uncertain about what actions to take.
Since my baby went away.
Since my partner left.
She won't let me touch her,
She refuses physical contact with me,
Tain't never showed me such restraint.
She has never shown such restraint before.
There must be something I can say.
I feel there must be something I can say or do.
I'm sorry baby, I can see now I was wrong
I apologize for my actions and acknowledge my mistake.
To try to give my lovin' to your sister and your ma.
It was wrong to pursue relationships with your sister and mother.
I've got those depravation blues, I'm so depraved it's true.
I am deeply affected by my immoral behavior; I am truly depraved.
I just can't help these things I do (baby your mother IS a very beautiful lady)
Expressing inability to control inappropriate actions. Parenthetical comment is a humorous aside about the mother's beauty.
I've got those depravation blues.
Reiteration of feeling deprived and morally corrupted.
I've got those depravation blues
Experiencing a sense of deprivation again.
Don't know what to do
Feeling lost or directionless without my partner.
Since my baby said goodbye.
Since my partner left me.
She won't let me grab her clammy hand
She refuses even simple physical contact like holding hands.
She says You ain't my man
She denies our relationship, claiming I am not her partner.
Well I'm so lonesome I could die.
I feel extremely lonely and desolate.
Come on now baby, give me just one little kiss
Pleading for a small display of affection, a kiss.
It ain't my fault your jellyroll's so tiny that I missed.
Excusing the lack of success in intimacy due to physical attributes.
I've got those depravation blues, I'm so depraved it's true.
Reiteration of feeling morally corrupt and deprived.
I just can't help these things I do. (baby it was dark in there)
Humorous excuse given for inappropriate behavior in a dark setting.
I've got those depravation blues.
Restating the feelings of deprivation.
