I`m just a singer a natural born guitar ringer, kind of a clinger to sad old songs.
I`m not a walk behind`er, I`m a new note finder but my name`s a reminder of a bluesman that already gone.
So I started drinking,took things that messed up my thinking I was sure sinking when you came along.
I was alone in the hot lights,not to much left in sight but she changed all that one night when she sang me this song.
Hey baby I love you. Hey baby I need you. Hey baby you ain`t got to prove to me that your some kind of macho man.
You`ve wasted so much of your life running through the dark nights let me shine some love light down on this bluesman
I got so sick from speeding all the stuff they said I wasn`t needed if I was to keep pleasing all of my fans.
I got cuffed on dirt roads. I got sued over no shows but she came and took all that ole load down off this bluesman.
Hey baby I love you too. Hey baby I need you. Hey baby I do get tired of this traveling band.
I`m thirty years old now nights would be cold now if you hadn`t stuck it out in this bluesman.
I`m thirty years old now, nights sure would be cold now if you hadn`t hung around for this bluesman.
