Well I was born in a shack
This side of the track
Way down in Alambam

I never had much luck
Just a pickup truck
And a one eyed mule named Sam

But on Saturday night
Man, I'd get right
I was the happiest man in the land

When I listened to that Stone Blues Man

And he would play
And he would play
And everybody danced
As they listened to that Stone Blues Man

Stone Blues Man

Got a little older
Put bags on my shoulder
And I headed off for town

The lights were bright
But things weren't right
I was the lonliest man around

I was walking along
And I heard the beat
Of some driving band

There before me stood my Stone Blues Man

And he would play
Oh and he would play
And everybody danced
As they listened to that Stone Blues Man

Stone Blues

Things started moving
And I started grooving
And I learned to play and sing

I learned his licks
And I learned to pick
He taught me how to swing

Then he retired
And I got hired
And got my own new band

Now I'm famous like that Stone Blues Man

Ah listen to me play
Ah listen to me play
And everybody danced
Cause I'm famous like that Stone Blues Man
Yes I'm famous like that Stone Blues Man
