Testo Blues Man's Road Roger Daltrey
Telling the stories
âBout the way it used to be
A steel string box
Was every blues manâs women
Everybody knew Lucille
From the Delta to the chain gang
I was born to the rhythm
Raised on volume
Wired to a different sound
Plain damn reckless till three in the morning
Dreaming of the place Iâd found
When the sugar tastes a little sweeter
Ainât nothing meaner
Then the old boy howling on his guitar alone
Telling the story âbout the blue manâs road
Well he taught me everything I know
We all knew that blues manâs road
Thatâs why they call this thing rock and roll
We were white city slip kids playing in
The streets
The songs of the black manâs band
With our tail drags dragging Mojoâs working
Got the blast from the big boss man
Where the sugar tastes a little sweeter
Ainât nothing meaner
Then the old man howling on his guitar alone
Telling the story âbout the blue manâs road
He taught me everything that Iâve ever known
We all knew that blues manâs road
Thatâs why they call this damn thing rock
And roll
The story âbout the blue manâs road
Taught me everything I know
Yea we all knew that blues manâs road
Thatâs why they call this damn thing rock
And roll.
