Joe Bonamassa - Dust Bowl Lyrics
[Intro]
[Verse 1:]
I'm gonna make my own way
I'm gonna head downtown
Find me a proper drink
Don't need a helmet
To get me through life
I walk across the water
Blame it on foolish pride
[Chorus:]
Lifting me up
Tearing me down
All you give me is indecision
Bringing me higher
Keeping me whole
Now I feel like I'm living
Living in a Dust Bowl
[Verse 2:]
Diamonds and pearls
You're that kind of girl
You size me up, to break me down
While you're sipping on your crown royal
I'll give you shelter
Babe, it's your call
It's hard to find truth within
When you're living in your own zone
[Chorus:]
Lifting me up
Tearing me down
All you give me is indecision
the classic run-around
Bringing me higher
Keeping me whole
Now I feel like I'm living
Living in a Dust Bowl
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 3:]
Pride and deception
The same kind of pain
And all that's left for me to lose
Is meant for you to gain
Playing it close
Stealing your time
But who cares anyway?
I've gone the extra mile
[Chorus:]
Lifting me up
Tearing me down
All you give me is indecision
the classic run-around
Bringing me higher
Keeping me whole
Now I feel like I'm living
Living in a Dust Bowl
[Outro]
Living in a Dust Bowl

Joe Bonamassa Dust Bowl Comments
An inmate at a Maximum Correctional Facility in Indiana told me to look this up. Now I have officially can say all walks of life have brought to me some wonderful music.
Blasted off to this song it was crazy intense
Blues I love it definitely helps with a broken heart
An audiobook featuring “ Jane Yellowrock” brought me here to hear the “ wailing guitar”. 😊🇨🇦
Great Pink Floyd song
This is just straight Awesome.
Just to be clear: "DUST BOWL", has nothing to do with "The American Dust Bowl".
In the early part of the 20th century the state of Oklahoma was a part of the country that was littered with farming people and they over tilled the land .. it caused a series of dust storms from the high winds that cross the state.. it was called the dust bowl an it was a hard time for these people as they lost everything they had to what became known as the american dust bowl.. i was born an rased in Oklahoma and when i hear this song it makes me think of my home and the history behind it..
Badass tune ty joe , i can only do nothing but unwind listening to ur music..
*WOW*
I haven't heard guitar playing like this in a while.
_Sweet Sounds_
*Love It*
I'm gonna make my own way
I'm gonna head downtown
Walk around, settle down,
Find me a proper drink
Don't need a helmet
To get me through life
I walk across the water
Blame it on foolish pride
Lifting me up
Tearing me down
All you give me is indecision
the classic run-around
Bringing me higher
Keeping me whole
Now I feel like I'm living
Living in a Dust Bowl
Diamonds and pearls
You're that kind of girl
You size me up, to break me down
While you're sipping on your crown royal

Lifting me up
Tearing me down
All you give me is indecision
the classic run-around
Bringing me higher
Keeping me whole
Now I feel like I'm living
Living in a Dust Bowl
Pride and deception
The same kind of pain
And all that's left for me to lose

GREAT TUNE .................
This is one of the most fan-tab tunes I have heard. Love the artist Joe Bonamassa. Great guitarist solo around 2:38. What voicing reaches right within your heart and soul. Awesome lyrics too. Music is so beautiful an artist has written the lyrics from some experience in their own life and when we listen to their creations we each will have a totally different perspective of the words. Thanks to Joe Bonamassa for allowing us to enjoy his artistic gifts.
Great song and album....talented, gifted, excellent musician....love his music!!!!!!!!!
JB is simply an awesome guitarist !
Lol for a second I thought you meant something else.
calm n cooool, brilliant!
This guy is magnificent he memorizes you with his excellent guitar sound's.
Yesterday i was on his concert. GUITAR GOD!!!!!
el bajo en esta canción es sensacional!
sure do love this...
gopod to music joe bonamassa
Love joe bonamassa
esto es genial. simplemente genial
Whoa! Now I love Bonamassa, he makes amazing music, but this is way to clean and polished for an Eastwood western flick. This song is too beautiful for a gritty western flick!
That's really cool wcmrfily! what a treasure you have ♥
I love JoeB, but my main gripe with him is that he went a little soft. He's lost a bit of his raw streak. That and really, he's a bit weak on the mic. His voice has gotten considerably better over the years, though.
Still easily one of my favorite guitarists/songwriters.
awesome, would love to witness joe and ian gilmour jam together.
i see there is 8 who dont like this must be chavs they must be listening to justin bieber and will.toss I AM
WOW, that's so strange, that's where I keep my picks!
What's with all the hate on JB? Joe Bonamassa is an amazing guitarist!
amazing stuff full of great guitar tones classy
All shut up. This may be the best moments of your entire life.
This song is GREAT, GREAT TUNE< lyrics, everything!!!! Never disapoints, never boring, Joe is the man, he delivers nothing but GREAT MUSIC, very talented. I love Joe Bonamassa!!!!
kick ass composition
Never Disappoints
Has anybody figured out what the low pitched and quiet voice is saying on a lot of the tracks on the album? i.e. the one at 3:56
Good beat an lyrics...
Really digging this guy.. great song.
You're full of shit.
If you think Joe is tone def, you're probably the tone def one
He is my all time # 1 fav....amazing!
nice beat this song has
You forget boring, monotonous, repetitious and lack of energy
This song really needs to be used for a movie trailer or something
i feel so spaced out listen to this...@_@ love it
Hey Joe , the other local Joe is joining you on Dust Bowl, the contest , it sounds integrated and beep blues.................hope you enjoy it as much as me.
What a prat you are, average voice, inferior guitar player, are you tone deaf by any chance?
This song is second only to sloe gin.
@TristanJok Yeh? what do you base that on? Btw you sound like a complete and utter Blimp. I. e you dont really know what you're talking about and just say something for the sake of saying ... something..
pretty cool.. . pretty much one of the best musicians that's come along in a ver y very long time. .
a two note off key plus tone intro?
