I'm rusty on lead guitar so didn't finish that part; will go back later. Inspired a bit by John Grisham book The Painted House.
Workers from the hill, say their homes look fair
They toil on my farm, thinking I don’t care, to
Paint my house
Paint my house for me (twice)
Out in the country
Nobody work for free
The color of cotton gonna look so nice
From the soil to the roof, if I could pay the price, to…
Paint my house
Paint my house for me
Out in the country
For my lonely eyes to see
REFRAIN
A long time ago, trees covered most of this land
Pappy laid’em down, then he built this home by hand
50 years of nature lays upon that wood
The pickers keep watching how I wish they would
Paint my house
Paint my house for me (twice)
I’m out in the country
Generation number 3
REFRAIN
A long time ago, trees covered most of this land
Pappy laid’em down, then he built this home by hand
Ain’t it fun to work beneath the ol’ moon light
Come and grab a brush we’ll have a party tonight, we’ll
Paint my house
Paint my house for me
Out in the country
Show them what you’ll do for me

Got my feet a-tappin! Love the vocals and the guitar work. And it paints a vivid picture.

This a great classic blues! Nice tempo, great vocals. You got a real comfortable feel all the way around. I can you're in your wheelhouse here. Great tune!
