          @hayseed You don't need to think when writing a 12 bar blues piece.

              @hayseed Well the blues are usually about some ex-lover who is mistreating you. A good start is "woke up this morning".

              @hayseed @thelastgherkin Your best bet is to go with humor. For example: "I woke up this morning / couldn't think of a song / Yes, I woke up this morning / couldn't think of a song / But I needed to for class / now I'm making this up as I go along." That took me about 2 minutes.

      @hayseed Play around for a while. Find a pattern you like that's bluesy. Write a 12 bar around said pattern. Profit.
