Tammie Shannon – I’ve got nothing to say

Blues

I got nothing to say but if I did
it goes something like this:
I was doing fine
before I met you
you crooked time and
my little silver spoon
they fly into your hands
I became your fool
while you be-came Mr great
while I played by your rules
you had my heart wrapped around your fingers
I was so deeply enchanted
the devil wouldn’t even touch me
and heaven wouldn’t let me in
oh you were my God
they were jealous
you were the only thing I was worshiping
you did things just to upset me
you didn’t think there was nothing I wouldn’t do –
just to be with you
you were so cruel
with your king of crowns and your crowned jewel
you had my heart wrapped around your fingers
I was so deeply incanted
the devil wouldn’t even touch me
and heaven wouldn’t let me in
oh you were my God
they were jealous
you were the only thing I was worshiping
now the tables “huh” they are a turning
your in hell burning for all you did
now the devil he keeps calling
and heaven has me again
I got nothing to say but if I did it goes something like this…

About, Abused as a child, Tammie found refuge in music. She spent her early years singing in her local church. She joined a local band that toured as the opener for Percy Sledge, always accompanied by her mother. After her mom passed away, Shannon was so stricken with grief, she gave up singing. After marriage marred by deceit and further abuse left Tammie broken and alone to raise her three daughters. Scarred but undaunted, Shannon focused on motherhood and building a successful business.
In 2013, Shannon was in an accident that required surgery. The intubation process damaged a vocal cord and left it paralyzed. It took a year to regain full use of her voice. The near loss of her vocal gifts and a life changing conversation with her daughter put music back at the center of her life as she temed up with Grammy-nominated producer Kent Wells.
“No genre of music is more honest than the Blues,” remarks Shannon, “and that is what has always attracted me to it. Life, put to music, is the Blues.”
After Tammie’s very personal triumphant story and second single, “Bulletproof” hit the airwaves, she was bombarded with interviews and featured in magazines, on radio and in blogs to share her lyrics and inspirational story.
