Devil's in His Big White House

about

I made up the lyrics to this song in bits and snatches one day in late January 2020, mostly while driving the car, with blues playing on the sound system, and it was about ¾ done when I sat down at the computer to finish it and type it up that evening. Immediately thereafter I sat down in front of the camera to record it, with no warm-ups, try-outs, experimentation etc. (which I would usually do with a new song). I just sat down and tried to capture what was in my head - and it just came out in one take, first try, sounding like what I wanted it to sound like. Believe me, that almost never happens. I guess I just wanted to get this one off my chest in a hurry.
