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 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 and make it funky
Just let 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
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 and make it funky
Just let me lay back and grin like a monkey
Play something I can understand
Play me some Brickyard Blues
It`s enough to make it light 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 rabbit hug a dog
Play somethin` sweet
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
any more
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 and make it funky
Just let me lay back and grin like a monkey
Play something I can understand
Play me some Brickyard Blues
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 and make it funky
Just let me lay back and grin like a monkey
Play something I can understand
Play me some Brickyard Blues
