I Can't Write Left-Handed (Live) by Bill Withers Song Lyrics
We recorded this song on October the 6th
Since then the war has been declared over
If you're like me, you'll remember it like anybody remembers any war
One big drag
Lot of people writes songs about wars and government
Very social things
But I think about young guys
Who were like I was when I was young
I had no more idea about any government
Or political things, or anything
And I think about those kind of young guys now
Who all of a sudden somebody comes up
And they are very law abiding
So if somebody says go
They don't ask any questions, they just go
And I can remember not too long ago seeing a young guy
With his right arm gone
Just got back
And I asked him how he was doing

one of my favorite albums, classic. check out I Can't Write Left Handed, sums up the after effects of the war on injured soldiers coming home
Soul and funk at its finest. Before things got a little crazy and outlandish, there was Bill Withers. A true poet who would have been a professional at the art form if it were as popular as music. Taking up the guitar and utilizing his poignant, thoughtful and vivid lyrics, Withers has written at least one song that makes us feel something powerful. This live album is the best recorded show I own -- the only live album I compare it to is Built to Spill "Live" and that's a collection of songs. The emotion in Withers' voice is especially prevalent on "Hope She'll Be Happier" and "I Can't Write Left-Handed." "World Keeps Going Around" has one of the best bass lines out there and the "For My Friend" is easy to relate with if you have ever had a beef with someone you cared about. The tightness of the backing band should also be mentioned -- Withers starts the chorus early on "Use Me" and his accompanying musicians are able to keep up without missing a beat. Literally. Not to mention the aforementioned opening track contains a treat most concert-goers wished more artists would do when playing one of their hits. A must-have for anyone with musical taste!
Nearly 40 years and it is still one of the VERY BEST!. Love Bill! Never been anyone better, and this was his best!
Life-changing. A recording of one of the best concerts of all time. Bill digs deep here, creating some of the best recorded versions of some of his best songs: Use Me; Grandma's Hands; For My Friend; I Can't Write Left-Handed; Lonely Town, Lonely Street. The Harlem medley that closes the album out is a serious groove. But really, every track is spectacular. This as profound and soulful as music gets. Buy it.
