Derek and the Dominos

Songwriter: Eric Clapton Bonnie Bramlett

Get up; get your man a bottle of red wine
Get up; get your man a bottle of red wine
I can't get up out of bed
With this crazy feeling in my head
Get up; get your man a bottle of red wine
Get up; get your man a bottle of red wine
Get up; get your man a bottle of red wine
You hear what I say?
Gonna love you anyway
Get up; get your man a bottle of red wine
I went to an all-night get together
And everyone I knew was there
Had the love that would last forever
Everywhere I looked, I saw you standing there
Get up; get your man a bottle of red wine
Get up; get your man a bottle of red wine
I can't get up out of bed
With this crazy feeling in my head
I said get up right now, oh oh
I said get up right now
Feel so bad this morning; got a terrible headache in my head
Do me a favor, baby, do me a favor please
Please get up; get your man a bottle of red wine
Get up, get up; get your man a big big bottle of red wine

Derek and the Dominos were a blues rock jam band formed in the spring of 1970 by guitarist and singer Eric Clapton, keyboardist and singer Bobby Whitlock, bassist Carl Radle and drummer Jim Gordon. They had previously played together in Delaney & Bonnie and Friends. Dave Mason supplied additional lead guitar on early studio sessions and played at their first live gig.

The band released only one studio album, Layla and Other Assorted Love Songs. The album went on to receive critical acclaim, but initially faltered in sales and in radio airplay. Although released in 1970 it was not until March 1972 that the album’s single “Layla” (a tale of unrequited love inspired by Clapton’s relationship with his friend George Harrison’s wife, Pattie Boyd) made the top ten in both the United States and the United Kingdom. The album, which has received praise from critics and fans alike, is often considered to be the defining achievement of Clapton’s career.
