| I guess I went crazy at about fifteen
|
| With a hand full of talent and a head full of dreams
|
| Pickin' on the front porch, girls started hanging around
|
| But they didn’t know that all I could do
|
| Was a little rock 'n' roll and some country blues
|
| Round about twenty, my daddy said, «Son
|
| Take some caution on the road that you’re on
|
| Get yourself a trade, boy, something to fall back on»
|
| But it was in my blood running hot and true
|
| It was a little rock 'n' roll and some country blues
|
| I’ve played the big time, standing the morning
|
| Some small smokey bars full of heroes and lonely’s
|
| I plead from the heart, Lord, and all I would use
|
| Was a little rock 'n' roll and some country blues
|
| Sweet country blues, yeah
|
| From the country back roads to fortune and fame
|
| I’ve had my share of pleasures and pain
|
| People ask me, «What keeps driving you on?»
|
| The answer is easy when you love what you do
|
| It’s a little rock 'n' roll and some country blues
|
| I’ve played the big time, standing the morning
|
| Some small smokey bars full of heroes and lonely’s
|
| I plead from the heart, Lord, and all I would use
|
| Was a little rock 'n' roll and some country blues
|
| Sweet country blues, yeah
|
| Sweet country blues |
