Bio |
Yeah! |
I was living in St. Louis |
In the year of nineteen fifty five |
Mama didnЉ° have no great mansion, |
Just a little old country dive. |
Papa worked all week long, |
TryЉ§?to keep us six kids alive. |
So I hitch hiked to Chicago |
Just to hear Muddy Waters play |
I sat and listened to him sing |
Until the early hours of day |
I asked him what I could do to make it And it was he who showed me the way |
I went back home and wrote a song |
And made a record I could claim |
The little tune jumped on the charts |
And rode me right on up to fame |
It netted over ten thousand dollars |
And added glory to my name |
I was standing at the airport |
With my guitar in my hand |
And a first class ticket |
Destination movie land |
I will be in Hollywood, Mama |
Before the roosters crow again |
When I first started playing music |
Over sixteen years ago |
Every big town in the country |
From St. Francisco to Baltimore |
Trying to bring some happy hours |
Doing the only thing I know |
CanЉ° help it, but I love it Stand here, sing to you |
Brings back so many memories |
Many things we used to do |
…Јill I see you here again |
Take care, good luck to you |
