[00:00:00]Something ain't right about that feeling. I'm looking for a woman named Martha Loomis. That's my wife. I can't promise anything, but we've been finders in my family for [music] a long time. A woman is everything a man need.

[00:00:14]To a smart man, she water and berries. My love don't need nobody leave her cold in hand. The world rough enough as it is. Can you fix it so my man come back to me? I play guitar like I'm born to it. [music] I'll see you have to learn the hard way. Right now without that job, you ain't got nothing.

[00:00:31]That's all anybody needs. To have love in one hand and laughter in the other.

[00:00:38]When Joe Turner swooped down on us and grabbed EVERYBODY THERE, KEPT US ALL SEVEN YEARS. YOU SEE HERE LOOMIS, when a man forget his song, he go out searching for it until he find [music] out he got it with him all the time.

[00:01:04]You shining like new money.
