<intro> You can write your tunes with rhythm and blues as your alibi |
|
You can sell your soul and lay the blame on the passers-by |
|
You shake your body on the |
|
TV screen |
|
It seems to me, you'd try anything twice |
|
And swing it out and use it as your aphrodisiac |
|
You can give it to me, to me |
|
Plain to see that |
|
I'll give it you back |
|
You let it flow, let it go, there's nothing to it |
|
Anyone can try anything twice, try anything twice |
|
Chasing after stories that have already been told |
|
Cannot look old |
|
Son House in the eyes |
|
Unaware you carry such a fragile load |
|
But I've got yours, and you've got mine |
|
It's a rhythm and blues alibi <instrumental> |
|
La la la la la la la la la la laaa.. |
|
You can take a trip through your juke joint smoke-filled paradise |
|
You can give it your all, 'cause you are walking a fine, fine line, la |
|
You shake your booty on the |
|
TV screen |
|
Seems to me, you'd try anything twice |
|
You'd try anything twice |
|
Well let me hear you now.. |
|
Chasing after stories that have already been told, |
|
Couldn't I look old |
|
Son HOuse in the eyes, |
|
Unaware you carry such a fragile load, |
|
And I've got yours, you've got mine |
|
It's a rhythm and blues alibi |
|
La la la la la etc. <fade out> |
