I love to play my Rock'n'Roll, but I've played the blues before

I've had my share of broken hearts

but I don't play the blues no more

If you meet the girl of your wildest dreams

she's gonna turn out to be a curse

Love will hit you bad boy, but the blues will hit you worse



If you wanna know how to play the blues...

get yourself a woman!



Muddy Waters sang out the truth back in 1941

Woman gonna get to you like Jimmy Hendrix with a gun

Mr FredMcDowell lost his pride when he begged his girl to stay

Mr Robert Johnson lost his life with too much love one day



If you wanna know how to play the blues...

get yourself a woman!



I love to play my Rock'n'Roll, but I've played the blues before

I've had my share of broken hearts

but I don't play the blues no more

If you meet the girl of your wildest dreams

she's gonna turn out to be a curse

Love will hit you bad boy, but the blues will hit you worse



If you wanna know how to play the blues...

get yourself a woman!

Pick it sweet...slide it slow, Whoo!
