I cut my teeth on gumbo rock |
|
Benny Spellman and Doctor John |
|
Sweet Irma Thomas and Frog man Henry |
|
Use to boogie woogie all night long |
|
Though I love rock and roll the acoustic guitar |
|
was the only way I had of becoming a star |
|
I knew it recognized and traveling around |
|
But they won't play my record in my ol' hometown |
|
If I had saxophones |
|
Big baritone, cleanin' up the muddy breaks |
|
If I had Saxophones |
|
I could get some recognition from |
|
that Mobile Alabama DJ |
|
Livin' by the ocean sometimes I get the notion |
|
To take my Jane to Alabam |
|
We hang out in a funky little bar |
|
They call it the Shipwreck lounge |
|
Well, we get kinda drunk and we play rock and roll |
|
Grabbin' everybody right down in their soul |
|
When we get to cookin' something's still wrong |
|
There's still something missing from them good old songs |
|
If we had saxophones |
|
Big baritone, cleaning up the muddy breaks |
|
If we had saxophones |
|
I could make that joint shimmy like a big |
|
California earthquake |
|
If we had saxophone |
|
Big baritones, cleaning up the muddy breaks |
|
If we had saxophone |
|
I could get some recognition from |
|
that Mobile Alabama DJ |
