Biography

Stevie Ray Vaughan was a blues rock singer, songwriter and guitarist, born October 3, 1954, in Oak Cliff, a suburb of Dallas, Texas. He married Lenora "Lenny" Bailey (aka Lenora Darlene Vaughan, born in Bakersfield, Kern, California, 4 December, 1953, dead on Isla Mujeres, Mexico, 27 July, 2018) in Austin, Texas, 23 December 1979. The struggling marriage (mostly due to Stevie Ray's alcoholism and drug addiction) ended in 1988, and he never had any children with her or anyone else. He named his guitar "Lennie" after her, though. When [a=Stevie Ray Vaughan & Double Trouble], befriended by [a=Mick Jagger] among others, played at the Montreux Jazz Festival in Switzerland in 1982, they were the first band in the history of the festival to play without having a major record contract. The show was seen by [a=David Bowie] and [a=Jackson Browne], who invited them to his recording studio in Los Angeles where they recorded some tracks that appeared on their debut album [i]Texas Flood[/i] the following year. He also played on Bowie's [i]Let's Dance[/i]. SRV, as he became known as, died on August 27, 1990 in a helicopter crash on the way to Chicago from a concert in Alpine Valley, East Troy, Wisconsin. He is buried at Laurel Land Memorial Park in South Dallas. He was the younger brother of [a330441].

LYRICS

True love is gone....I's been played for a fool
True love is gone....I's been played for a fool
I'm turnin' the tables on you
You've been playin' dirty pool
You said you'd call the shots darlin'....All your friends thought that was cool...so cool baby
You said you'd call the shots darlin'....All your friends thought that was so cool
Yeah when you shot at the eight-ball baby....I knew you were playin' dirty pool

They say that life....Life is a game of give and take
They say that life....Life is a game of give and take
I'm tellin' you one thing right now little baby
I won't be the one to pay for your mistake
