Aerosmith - Milk Cow Blues Lyrics

Cover of the Kinks cover of this song. Kinks version > Aeroshits version

Don’t that sun look good going down!

This is a song very goo!!

mess with the best .....die like the rest!!!!

Love this song oh Steven is pissed off.

This wasnt Aerosmith greatest album but it has some of their greatest songs on it milk cow Blues kicks ass

Absolutely my favorite song by Aerosmith

Love this song another one of my favorites.

If only they could rock like this again.

Draw the Line will never touch the likes of Toys or Rocks, but DAMN is it underrated! So uniquely raw, gritty, and grimy in its own quirky weird way. this song rocks the joint

This album sorta went a little under the radar just because it didnt matchup with the Mighty Aersomith we came to know with Rocks & Toys etc .... But let 2 or 3 decades go by & look back & listen to this & what a Killer rocking Loose,ballsy damn good album it is. You can almost hear the chemical influence coming thru your speakers,.

I've always loved this album, since it first came out. It's hardcore, blues-based Aerosmith. It's like a runaway train that threatens disaster but never derails. Also, I've always felt it was their most psychedelic effort. It's Aerosmith deep into the 'wayoutosphere', and no band on earth could do it like they did.

Great 1957 Goldtop tone at the opening of the song by Brad

My first 2 albums purchased, and on the same day were Toys, and rocks. The music I cut my teeth on. Love this song, every Aerosmith album that I know has one of these gems on it where they always kicked into catastrophic sound warp in top gear. Love the chop chop bluesy gut drive they would grind and groove as they raced past the gates of hell with the one finger salute. Reminds me of one of my favorites "Rats in the cellar". Draw the line is as close to pure Aerosmith as the world would ever see. The Drugs, Money and stature afforded them the balls to sneak Draw The Line Album past the record company executives. Thank God!

When this came out it seemed like a departure from everything up til that point, it was good but different.Looking back it was pure Aerosmith.

Mr. Joe Perry..

Mc kennit

Draw The Line is so enormously underated

I dare anyone to stay under the speed limit driving while listening to this jam

Oh, I'd end up in someone's lawn if I dared to jam to this while driving!

By this point in their flight, no matter what they played, it sounded awesome. They have become seasoned musicians by now, in '77. However, hard-core Aero listeners would start to detect cracks in the hull and water leaking in, at this very juncture. I love DTL as much as the next huge Aerosmith hard-core listener...but it doesn't sound as relaxed and planned out as Toys and Rocks. But hey, nothing is forever, right. I'm the first one to cut the guys some slack. Let's face it - they worked their asses off! Also, the winds of the music scene in 1977 were far less favorable for ANY hard rock band. Soft rock, easy listening music, and the up-rise of Disco and Punk...all were out to view rock music as the enemy. And Aerosmith and Zeppelin were PRIME targets. Lightening rods for the "push to extinction" by all these brainless knucklehead bands that could never last, stated in the last sentence. I am still and will always be a huge Aerosmith fan. Until the end.

Love the energy on this album, you hear the drugs and feel the tension, although not as big a seller as the previous Rocks and Toys, it is a good solid album. They were just starting to come apart at the seems by now and it made for an intense album.

Ladies and gentlemen please enjoy the greatest rock and roll band ever!

The rolling stones?

aerosmith owned the 70s

Actually, Elvis was the top draw right through 1977!!!!!

The harmonica and the guitar solo at the end of this song are totally electrifying. What a rush!!!!

This is one of my favorite Aerosmith songs. It kicks ass. I'm always out of breath by the end even if I'm just sitting still.

Anita McGuinn
Same. Fuckin A, Cotton. That- THAT- is how you make a cover your own. Bands, note- Milkcow Blues.

aerosmith at their greatest  this shit rocks the  f.cking joint!!!!

Paulie picked me up from Navy boot camp in Waukegan 1986. When we got in the car. This was on the radio. Love you Paulie. I'll never forget you. RIP my brother. you will always be in my heart.

Is this copying the kinks version?

Oh thanks man i think your right!

@IgNaceus The Kinks and everyone based their version on Elvis' version. The original is shaped differently and doesn't have the dumdunnananaaaaa guitar beat to it. Elvis pretty much wrote a new song with the same lyrics. I like his best but this is really nice too, love hard rock. Although I love the Kinks' version more than this. 

@Johnny Scumbag Not so sure; anyway, Aerosmith's members were fully acquainted with the acts of the "British Invasion", as much as (or perhaps more than) the early rock n roll and rhythm n blues heroes, and I can't but think that they knew the Kinks' version very well and got inspired by it

@IgNaceus Steven Tyler is a huge Elvis fan and is on video talking about how Elvis inspired him to be a musician in the first place. The Kinks, Aerosmith and every one based their covers on Elvis' version, not Kokomo's version. Kokomo's version is a blues song, not a rock song and it doesn't have the rhythm of Elvis' version. Like I said, Elvis pretty much wrote a new song. If he had changed the lyrics, he could have passed it off as his own written song. You can clearly see the Kinks and Aerosmith's versions were modeled after Elvis' version from everything; the vocal melody, the guitar beat and tempo. 

+Little Jimmy Scumbag Right on and well said!!!!!

Exactly. Still listening to it today!!

I liked this song almost 40 years ago. It hasn't lost any of its freshness.

Not my favrote, but good song

I like this cover, but I like The Kinks version a little more.

Inspired by an old Robert Johnson tune.

That's right!

Actually, this song wasn't written by Robert Johnson, but by Kokomo Arnold. First made popular by Bob Wills and his Texas Playboys.

Oh, yeah, baby.

F*ck this s*it!
In the past I loved to hate Aerosmith, 'cos first song I heard from them was
"I Don't Wanna Miss a Thing"
...and now when I heard this, I need to revaluate their entire discographty all over again from the day one...
Thx ColetaniadeMusicas..I hate u <3

Everything up through Night in the Ruts was great, after that they went to shit.

They even still had good tracks after Ruts just not whole great albums like the 1st 7

Their 70's albums are in a league of their own. It was their time and as great as they still are, that time can never be recaptured.

I got into Aerosmith in 1993 when 'Get A Grip' came out. I then worked backwards through their discography and found myself loving them more the further i went back. To this day i prefer their '70's, raw, gritty rock 'n' roll style to their polished, MTV-image, ballad-heavy style.

A really good cover version by Aerosmith from one of their most underrated albums

makes my day, awesome song...

Holy crap this riff is tight

'cept to play in a rock and roll band....

aerosmith owned the 70s

That song changed my life in 1977. Been playing guitar ever since. What can a poor boy do...

Milk da bull blues .-)

like sonic said cochise!
