Artist Bio:
One day in January of 2010 Jimmy B went crazy. He imagined that it was a good idea to record some of his songs. Instead of contacting Universal Studios, he picked up a 16 track studio recorder cheap off of Craigslist and went about it himself. The insanity continued. He wrote eight more songs by the end of February. Something was definitely wrong with him.
He started to believe that he was a songwriter. He developed a fever, hot enough to burn a CD. So he did.
"Color of Blue" is a creation from the heart of a singer/songwriter. No animals or spirits were harmed, nor were any personal philosophies compromised. Home spun lyrics and hands-on production are laced with blues harp, down and dirty acoustic guitar, and easy flowin' vocals.

Color of Blue
The snow aint green and the grass aint white
I cant change those colors
I cant make yours right
There’s no way I can change the color of blue.
There comes a time when the feelings are gone
And the hurtin starts
And it comes on strong
And there’s no way you can change the color of blue
Chorus
When your tears cant wash the pain away
Time’s the only thing that can make it ok
Sometimes you need to talk it out
Let someone know what its all about
If it makes you feel better, I’ll be there for you
Though I can’t make things right
And I can’t change your hue
There’s no way I can change the color of blue.
I got nothing to say that can change your day
There’s nothing I can do
To comfort you
There’s no way I can change the color of blue
Repeat Chorus
Every Song is sad
And Every word you hear.
There’s no kind of dam
That can stop a tear
Time will pass
And the clocks will tick
There’s still no color
That you can pick
Repeat Chorus
I got nothing to say that can change your day
There’s nothing I can do
To comfort you
There’s no way I can change the color of blue.
The snow aint green and the grass aint white
I cant change those colors
I cant make yours right
There’s no way I can change the color of blue

Can’t Catch Me
You can’t catch a falling star
Or save the moonlight in a jar.
And you can’t hold the wayward breeze
That goes sailing through the trees
You can’t rope a sunny day
Tie it up and make it stay.
And you can’t catch me, make me settle down
I’m just too busy
Hanging round
Being free
Just being me
You can’t stop a lightning bolt
If you try you’ll get a jolt.
You can’t wrap the clouds that drift
Send them off as a gift
You can’t box a twilight glow
Package it up with a pretty bow.
And you can’t catch me, make me settle down
Etc.
You can make me say I do…You can try using super glue..
You can strap me down real tight…You can try with all your might
You can take me shackled and bound…There’s still no way I’ll settle down
You can’t change a rainbows color
Keep the bees away from flowers
You can’t stop the dew and ask
Won’t you please stay off the grass
You can’t tell a hurricane
To blink its eye and stop the rain
And you can’t catch me, make me settle down
Etc.
Repeat first verse

Gangsta
He’s a pistol packin punk
With his pants hung low.
He’s really bad.
Now don’t you know
He’s a gangsta! Yes he’s a gangsta.
He’ll cap you cold
And leave you dead.
He’ll fill his teeth with gold
And your **** with lead.
He’s a gangsta! Yes he’s a gangsta.
Chorus
And his momma loves him still.
And if he don’t like you
You’re the one he’ll kill.
He got swagger. He got bling.
And his wheels ride low.
The hoes think he’s king
And he’s rollin in the dough.
He’s a gangsta! Yes he’s a gangsta.
Got a parka with a logo
From the NBA.
He’s got no place to go
In the middle of the day.
He’s a gangsta! Yes he’s a gangsta.
Let’s the bullets fly
In the neighborhood.
Don’t care who die.
Can’t do no good.
He’s a gangsta! Yes he’s a gangsta.
His momma works two jobs.
His daddy’s in jail.
The people he robs
Say he’s destined to fail.
He’s a gangsta! Yes he’s a gangsta.
Chorus
Repeat first two verses (no chorus)

Whatcha Gonna Do
Whatcha gonna do with the mess you made
When you tore into my heart?
Who’s gonna pick up the pieces left
After rippin my life apart?
Who’s gonna sweep up this shattered soul
Of the man you used to see?
Whatcha gonna do with the mess you made of me.
Chorus
And how can you just brush away
The memories of what used to be?
Whatcha gonna do with the mess you made of me.
Whatca gonna do repeat 3X
Whatcha gonna do with the mess you made of me.
Whatcha gonna do with the damage done
When you crushed all of my dreams?
Who’s gonna clean up this broken heart
That fell apart at the seams?
Who’s gonna straighten up my life
You know it wont be easy?
Whatcha gonna do with the mess you made of me?
Chorus
Repeat first verse
Chorus
Whatca gonna do repeat 3X
Whatcha gonna do with the mess you made of me.

Hummingbird
I’m a hummingbird, don’t slow me down.
I’m a hummingbird, cruisin’ round the town.
I’m a hummingbird, don’t slow me down.
I’m a hummingbird buzzin’ all around.
Listen just a little, you’ll hear the sound.
I’m a hummingbird, don’t slow me down.
Chorus: repeat 2 times
I’m a hummingbird, don’t slow me down.
I get a little pollen when I’m stallin’ around,
Flappin’ and floatin’ above the ground.
I’m a hummingbird, don’t slow me down.
I put the mettle to the petal in every town
You’re the flower of the hour, the one I found.
I’m a hummingbird, don’t slow me down.
Chorus: repeat 2 times
I’m a hummingbird, don’t slow me down.
Ain’t much to say ‘bout a hummingbird.
Don’t really hum, just the wings are heard.
They flutter and they flit, and then they split.
Don’t take time to walk or sit.
I’m a hummingbird, don’t slow me down
Chorus: repeat 3 times
I’m a hummingbird, don’t slow me down. |

Can’t Get No Blues Blues
Woke up one morning
Just another sunny day
Woke up one morning
Everything was OK
Woke up one morning
Weren’t nothing’ wrong
Woke up one morning
All my cares was gone
Refrain:
And that’s not good
‘Cause I’m tryin’ to sing some blues here
I’m tryin’ to open up wide
I’m tryin’ to sing some blues here
But I’m just not, just not, just not qualified
I’ve never been mistreated
I’ve never been abused
My woman never done left me
Alone and all confused
Ain’t never been busted
Ain’t never spent no time in jail
When I need some money
The check’s already in the mail
Refrain
Well I ain’t never been the victim
Of no racial slur
And when I gets sick and tired
Doctor always finds the cure
Don’t know nothing’ ‘bout no ghetto
Don’t know nothing’ bout no hood
My peeps are my glasses
And with ‘em, my visions real good
Refrain
Just don’t have no credentials
Ain’t never paid my dues
Can’t get no license
For to be singin’ the blues
Just can’t get no blues
‘cept them can’t get no blues blues
