I can't agree to disagree
Fighting like I'm fighting for life
They're only words but they cut like a blade
Swinging wide with all of my might

Ah yeah, I guess it's all of that coffee, that's got my mind in a whirl
I'm still cussing and bitching and there ain't nobody here

Oh yeah, you don't have to holler I hear you
I'm standing right here beside you
Oh, 99 shades of crazy, I'm 99 shades of crazy
Crazy, crazy, crazy, crazy

Pour another drink, make it a double for me
Maybe I can drink this away
It's never fun when they pull out the gun
Beat you black and blue, boy
You gotta pay, you gotta pay

Oh, where the hell am I? I hope at least I had fun
I'm stumbling through New Orleans oh, to the rising sun

Oh yeah, you don't have to holler I hear you
I'm standing right here beside you
Oh, 99 shades of crazy, I'm 99 shades of crazy
Crazy, crazy, crazy, crazy

Lord have mercy on me
Noventa nueva tonos de loco

I need some peace, just some relief
From this voice, killing me
You stare at me, and you glare at me
All this pain it's all the same, it's all insane
(You see)

Is this really happening or did I make it all up?
I'm bound for Chattahoochee on a turnip truck

Oh yeah, you don't have to holler I hear you
I'm standing right here beside you
Oh, 99 shades of crazy, I'm 99 shades of crazy
Crazy, crazy, crazy, crazy

Ah you're crazy you're crazy
Hold my feet, feet to the fire
You hold my feet to the fire
I never said I was down with you

Nice.  I thought it was the Black Crowes.
RP needs more JJ Grey & Mofro on the main and rock mixes, please.

i just don't understand why this one hasn't really been plaid in 8 yrs!
HAHAHAHAHAHA - I just shared this song with a coworker yesterday.  This is sooooo my life right now. 
Music Karma strikes again!

Lordy this has me noddin' an stompin' an wonderin' wheres that crazy super hootchie I'm needin
Nothin' like a little Southern swamp rock to get the juices flowin' on a slow Monday morning.
Something about a jet airliner....
Cool! I thought that sounded like JJ Grey/Mofro! These guys have some really great stuff... not sure this would top my list of favs, but this is still some solid rock n' roll.

In that case, please stop.
Wow...I came to find out which 70s band I missed back in the day, only to find these guys are contemporary. A little bit of Skynyrd, a dash of Stax/Volt and/or Muscle Shoals...there have got to be a few others I missed. 

Interesting. Will have to listen to this again. Hope their sound expands a little bit further out of the Me Decade.

Spotcheckbilly we owe you one! 
It's nice to hear some rock and roll on Radio Paradise. It's been a long time.

Good stuff!  Huge fan of their original album Lochloosa.
Never heard this group before, that is my loss, but Superb just Superb, but then I'm a Rock/R&B fan. 
this tune's writer must know my sheila (you don't have to holla I hear you!!!)    wicked stepping music!
I've purchased 4 of their albums (via MP3), and am now a HUGE fan.  This is real R&B-infused Rock & Roll.  Well crafted, not over-produced.  Superb.

You should know.  LOL
Saw them live here a few years ago, and am looking forward to seeing them at the Forecastle Festival this summer.


Is this a remake? I like it.
Wow. That rocks. Didn't think anybody could still make them like they used to… Impressive.

Sounds like Paul Pena, which is a great thing.

Thanks, bro.
love this. love love love jj grey & mofro!!
They're getting better and better (slowly, but surely)-----back from the days of drunken soulfulness--to purposeful funk-rock---Go JJ!
OK. Now I know who to blame. Kidding. Maybe.

I am a huge fan of JJ Grey & Mofro, and very glad to hear them on RP.  Hot, sexy, swamp-rockin'-blues with a little funk. And we can all use a little of that to warm up a cold winter day like today. 

On top of all that, this is a fun song.   (Great video, too, BTW)
