Brickyard Blues - Live

Well, I tried to run my game

She said "Man, that's the same old thing I've heard before"

And I'm too tired to go for your show

Again and again

And she started to explain

She said "Man, I ain't sayin'

What you're playin' just can't make it

But I just can't take it anymore"

Play somethin' sweet, play somethin' mellow

Play somethin' I can sink my teeth in like Jello

Play something I can understand

Play me some Brickyard Blues

Play somethin' sweet now make it funky

Just make me lay back and grin like a monkey

Play something I can understand

Play me some Brickyard Blues

Well, I started to sweat

She said "Don't get upset

'Cause you just might break a string

And that won't do a thing for your show, don't you know"

So I said to myself

I said, "Self, do you see what is sailin' through my soul?"

And I gotta have some more, don't ya know

Play somethin' sweet, play somethin' mello

Play somethin' I can sink my teeth in like Jello

Play something I can understand

Play me some Brickyard Blues

Play somethin' sweet now make it funky

Just make me lay back and grin like a monkey

Play something I can understand

Play me some Brickyard Blues

Well, well, well

It's enough to make a light in the dark

It's enough to make a bite just a bark

It's enough to make a body move around

It's enough to make a bulldog hug a hound

Play somethin' sweet, play somethin' mellow

Play somethin' I can sink my teeth in like Jello

Play something I can understand

Play me some Brickyard Blues

Alright
