Built For Comfort (Not for Speed)

Another great Willie Dixon song. Howlin Wolf version is most popular. Believe it or not, I found this chair in the grocery store parking lot.

Some folk built like this, some folk built like that
But the way I'm built, you shouldn't call me fat
Because I'm built for comfort, I ain't built for speed
But I got everything all the good girls need
I don't have no diamond, and I don't have no gold
But I've got a lot of lovin' and I want you to know
That I'm built for comfort, I ain't built for speed
But I got everything all the good girls need
Some folk built like this, some folk built like that
But the way I'm built, you shouldn't call me fat
Because I'm built for comfort, I ain't built for speed
But I got everything all the good girls need
Some folk rip and roar, some folk b'lieve in signs
But if you want me, you got to take your time
Because I'm built for comfort, I ain't built for speed
But I got everything all the good girls need
But I got everything all the good girls need
I, I love you baby
I, I love you baby
But I got everything all of the good girls need
And I don't got no diamonds, don't have no gold
Got a lot of lovin' to satisfy your soul
I'm built for comfort, I ain't built for speed
But I got everything all the good girls need

Agree with Julie. The mood and the depth are outstanding. Very nice vignette as well. Vote.

Another favourite song, and a great singer (saw him several times in the distant past, what a performer). Great shot! WOnder what it was doing in the parking lot :-) V
