Then the old boy howling on his guitar alone
I was born to the rhythm
The streets
Taught me everything I know
Bout the way it used to be
We all knew that blues mans road
Thats why they call this thing rock and roll
Got the blast from the big boss man
Raised on volume
Aint nothing meaner
With our tail drags dragging Mojos working
Then the old man howling on his guitar alone
A steel string box
The story bout the blue mans road
Telling the story bout the blue mans road
Telling the story bout the blue mans road
Thats why they call this damn thing rock and roll
He taught me everything that Ive ever known
We were white city slip kids playing in
Where the sugar tastes a little sweeter
Dreaming of the place Id found
We all knew that blues mans road
When the sugar tastes a little sweeter
Wired to a different sound
The songs of the black mans band
Everybody knew Lucille
Well he taught me everything I know
Aint nothing meaner
From the Delta to the chain gang
Was every blues mans women
Yea we all knew that blues mans road
Plain damn reckless till three in the morning
