Down off of that blues man
Nights would be cold now
Let me shine a little love light
His name's a reminder, of a blues man that's already gone
He got so sick from speeding
Hey baby, I love you
All the things they said he was needing
I'm over forty years old now
She changed all that one night, when she sang him this song
He was born in the spot light, not too much left inside
He got sued over no shows
Hey baby, I do get tired of this traveling band
All of his fans
Down on that blues man
If you hadn't stuck it out
If she hadn't hung around
Running through the dark nights
Hey baby, I need you
With this blues man
Hey baby, you ain't got to prove to me
You wasted so much of your life
And he sang
Nights would be so cold now
He's not a walk behinder, he's a new note finder
Hey baby, I love you too
He got cuffed on dirt roads
He was sure sinkin', when she came along
Your some kind of macho man
Hey baby, I need you
If he's to keep on pleasing
She came and took all that old load
He's over forty years old now
So he started drinkin', took somethings that messed up his thinkin'
