For January 2025, several of us are taking part in the 30-Day Song Lyrics Coach4aday Challenge. Each day we utilize a theme and post the song lyrics from a song that connects the two. Today my theme is on a weapon and my song is SMOKING GUN.

Robert Cray is a blues guitarist who in 1986 wrote in collaboration with Bruce Bromberg and Richard Cousins the song Smoking Gun. It is a song that deals with infidelity and the terrible outcome that anger, and envy will sometimes bring. The song appeared on his album called “Strong Persuader”. That album won a Grammy in 1986 for Blues Album of the Year.
