Joe Simon - It be's that way sometimes

[@reynegroblackking8912]

This song is real as can be and touches the soul. RIP Joe Simon 🙏🏽

[@str8outtatexas1]

growing up in texas my dad owned a juke joint back in the 70's, 80's in a small town outside of houston. I was a youngster maybe 12 or 13, and all the older women would love to play this record on the juke box. I instantly fell in love with this song, and many more of joe simon's songs.I'm 44 and i will never stop playing all that juke joint magic. pure soul,funk,love,power, and greatness. these artist are priceless. todays garbage ass music has ruined what music is suppose to be like. rip J.S.

[@dafunkyworm]

I grew up in the same situations during the same years in Ohio. My mother ran a bootleg joint as a kid and we lived upstairs from it back during the 70's and 80's. This whole time I thought I had a one of a kind childhood.

[@whitneyweaver4133]

I looked for this song over 30 years since I heard it one night in Louisiana in 1982......thank god for KZbin!!

[@leeshepherd5669]

Damn..!! The most painful thing about love is when you love someone and that Love that you love They love someone else too...Lot more so then they love you.!!..Not a damn thing you can do about it..And Its so hard to bear

[@janetdavis6246]

I remember when my mom cry and cry and dance off this song she used to look at me and say baby them happy tears

[@josephmortensen8447]

Thats wierd, my mom too, are we related ? Im an only child, but were related.

[@SamuelF-e4n]

I heard this song back in 1985 on a old school radio show, this song reminds me when my Ex-wife left me for another man, I really cried when they played this song, I’ll never forget it, RIP Joe Simon🙏🏽🙏🏽

My Dad also owned a night club in Pass Christian Misissippi back in the late 50's through the 60's and tis guy along with a lot more singers that made it big played and passed through the name of the club was the 3 and 2 Club named at the time because they were 3 boys and 2 girls when the place was open.

Joe Simon's trenchant take on this Phillip Mitchell-penned song is a real highlight of his "Get Down" LP from 1975. I think it stands as his finest-ever soul-blues-ballad vocal performance.
