Blues for Your Baby |
Well, Mister Saxman, how do you do? |
There’s nobody here but me and you |
You’ve been blowin' all night I know and you need your rest |
But before you go to bed, man, I’ve got one request |
You played a blues for your baby |
Now play a blues for me You played a blues for your baby |
Now play a blues for me Ah, Mister Saxman, don’t be shy |
Don’t be complaining that your mouth is dry |
I got a bottle of something right here in my coat |
Stone guaranteed to lubricate your throat |
You played a blues for your baby |
Now play a blues for me You played a blues for your baby |
Now play a blues for me Now, Mister Saxman, I know you play your horn |
Like every shred of your soul was tattered and torn |
You can make it sound like crying |
You make it sound like a full flood of tears |
Bring that thing over here |
Let me hear you play it for the lost and the lonely |
Play it for the tricked and misused |
I want to hear you play it for every storm-blown disappointed soul |
For every heart that’s been abused |
Let me hear you play it for all the women in the world |
And make it blue |
And Mister Saxman, play it for me Because I’m hurting too |
You played a blues for your baby |
Now play a blues for me You played a blues for your baby |
Now play a blues for me |
