Robert Cray - Smoking Gun Lyrics

One of the very best blues guitarists/vocalists out there. I bought the Strong Persuader album when it came out in 1986 and played it a million times since then.

I understand Robert grew up in the Arrowhead area of Lakewood, Wa when he was a teen. We lived in the same area. My older sister told me she used to see Robert hanging out at the 7-11 in Arrowhead all the time. She said Robert's sister was also in some classes with her at Lakes High School. Who would have known the amazing person Robert would grow up to be! I wish I could have met him back then.

Unique ✊️👏

love this song totally blues rock on rom

Hes definitely up there with the best of them! Jimi, BB king, Stevie Ray Vaughn, Clapton, Mark knopfler, David Gilmour.. Amazingly brilliant

What an awesome song.

This is the perfect song to put on when you have to smack a hoe.

Love love love this song!!!! Alot of memories!!

Saw him for free once, never will again

The sound, the guitar talent, the vocals, and the blues story telling...Man I LOVE this isshhh!!! This album or ANY of the songs on it didn't get the national attention it deserved. Robery Cray is a bad, BAD MAN!!!

Just an instant Classic!

Robert Cray is one heck of a guitarist totally reminds me of Eric Clapton do you ever seen the song Old love they're like hand-in-hand they sound the same they're back and forth and they're right on time and their styles are so similar. It's just like Jimi Hendrix if he was still on the planet and Stevie Ray Vaughan perfect comparison they could tear it up cuz they're guitar styles are so much alike so with that my friends out there all I got to say is God I wish you didn't take the good ones and gosh darn it all 4 a.m. clean when I do my philosophical opinion that if you're musically inclined as far as your listening habits U2 would see what I'm talking about. Anyways thank you rock and roll Stars I wish you were all here on the planet still playing especially the last two but you know what you will live on in my mind and the great thing about us I listen to you forever anybody else is got good comparisons between two artists has that special almost like twin brothers the guitar sound the same same style hosted let me see it... JP opinion for the evening in the music world peace everybody out there I Remember music is the key which builds heart so when you're down and out put on a song and just start playing air guitar or sing it out loud

The lyrics alone set this song apart. 2 different smoking guns...blues ar its finest

The guitar was blazing

Chillin one day years ago and heard this tune on MTV for the first time, Robert Cray is one bad dude.

Take notes kiddies this is how it is done.

Muito som e inspiração.

Some nice wet drops...

love his music fan of his forever

Classic 😊👍❤🇦🇺

Bought his tape Tower Records in Jersey in 1987. Went thru three more. Everyone keeps nabbing.

YES.🎸

My dad took me to see Robert Cray as a boy and I often come to listen to some of his music.

Robert Cray is pure legit. He sounds great live.

A great song from a great band.

Take notes kiddies this is how it is done.

A master of modern blues.

Makes me want to learn how to play the guitar..

Won a grammy for this one and Right Next Door too

Just saw Robert and band this evening. I went to his concert maybe 15-20 years ago. He hasn’t lost a thing! Vocals are good as ever. Great show!

Magic of music....and I am sure the guitar is the key....amazing !!

Robert Cray also co-wrote Old Love with Clapton.

Can't wait!!!

Your honor, I declare myself guilty of all charges for never finding Robert cray before,....for somebody who loves this kind of music so much, there’s no excuse

But you did so enjoy him.

Smooth sounds

Awesome artist.

What a treasure. Most people on the street would just say, "Robert who?"

Why don't y'all just take it easy on your anion respect whatever the f*** that was you can keep up with my goddamn conversation anyway

His EYES BLINDED BY THE SON 🌞

my brain comes up with some image of 90s American films

I think of From Dusk Til Dawn - mainly because its opening song by The Blasters shares a similar riff.

Beautiful lead solo.

Montrouse

Man this was HUGE !
Bob came a loooong way from Otis Day and The Knights

Very nice! great!!

vu en concert, un régal

Smocking Gun...2020

What a gem

Where are my Cray CDs? ... Mutha' humpers!!

I saw him years ago in Denver for a free concert. The grey guitar and the red one are the only two he played. He hits the strings so hard, after each song he exchanges one with a roadie, just tuned. One of my favorite.

I love this. Love Love Love.

HELL YES! CAN'T BEAT ROBERT CRAY WHEN YOU FEEL DOWN! ❤💋 my God. Guitars are fnk alright! YA-AaaH! 💋💋💋❤ can't forget that bass. I love it! And they r all having fun! 😎

Pure beautiful Fender tone!

I love this song so much. Cray's singing is sublime. I listen and close my eyes and smile, reminiscing about an old girlfriend I foolishly loved so many years ago.

Don't worry, she's alive and well somewhere.... But in my imagination the rotten bitch is stone cold dead.

HEY,SHIRLEY-THINKING OF YOU!!

was this song in the movie They Live?

Portland blues festival 2019

God, how I love Cray.

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

That solo!!

Mahalo Nui. Awesome at the Rainbow Club SEA. WA

Shared worldwide lol Marilee. Love this

Can anyone believe this made it onto MTV.....amidst all that filler and drivel of the 80s ?!?!?

To this day. 6/19/19. I still can't stand how the music business killed the blues in the 90's.

Awesome! Plain heart no crap. Just blues.

This man does not get the credit he truly deserves. Not only a talented vocalist, but one of the best guitar players of all time.

he was exactly in the same era of stevie ray vaughn's fame, and today we all know that stevie didnt left much for other players in the 80's blues era

Man he's as COOL AS STEVIE RAY VAUGHAN - 👊💯🇦🇺🙏

@Grant Wilkie hes very good and as cool as SRV, but SRV was too good and he clearly stole the show

In part, I think it's because the production on this album is not great. Really, the sound quality on this record is just not great, even though the material is strong and his vocals are awesome.

I think his voice is quite good

I so love Robert Cray and I have since seeing him playing live and up close, in Eugene, Oregon all those years ago .

Saw him last night in Huntington, NY. Phenomenal show, great opening acts as well. What a smooth soulful player!!

🤘😑🤘
Tomorrow night Wilkes-Barre PA!

ROBERT CRAY

Robert cray sings and plays and never over the top,this was a tight cut and his band stayed on point

I bought the album when it came out in '85 and played it about a thousand times. The feel, clean tone and phrasing he employs is so pure. Beautiful. Roberts voice is as good as his playing. Slays me!

If this fulfill your cravings then I feel for you.

One of THE best albums ever!!!!!
"I'm havin' nasty nasty visions, and baby you're in every one."
"I'm havin' nasty nasty visions, and baby you're in every one."

really really solid...effortless, but then truly talented people make it seem ez

I saw Robert Cray at  the Boston Harbor Pavilion , Boston , Ma. what a great concert and perfect venue .!!   He was just awesome . !!!

Robert Cray is the best blues artist ever.

Feeling these blues right down inside, pain in my ❤ heart

The fact that this absolute gem of a man was with Stevie Ray on the last night of his life really gives me comfort. Who better to be with really. I absolutely love this song. He will always hold a special place in my heart.

great band

He is so hot especially the way he strums that guitar! A fine chocolate treat for a bad night.

2019 baby...I can't remember just what I've done....

The McMenamins renovated the Elks Temple in Tacoma and named one of their guest rooms Robert Cray.

❤️ Robert Cray❣️

True blessing of the blues.

this song is cray

Not heard this guy over here in UK, just only found RC today, what a great sound I missed! Added to favorites along with all the great guitarists and singers!

Got to see him in a free concert in Orlando years ago. Fantastic...

in my top 10 greatest songs ever.

Awesomeness

You're not shitting there alone
