Luyện nghe bài hát Mother Blues

When I was a man
About 21 old y'all
All I wanted was a girlfriend
And a Top Les Paul
Be careful of the things you for
You get 'em

was a night club in Dallas
Called Blues
It's where Lightning played
And King even payed some dues

All the and gamblers
And young hipsters, they all made the scene
The girl at the who checked ID's
Was 16

Aw, it was not a place for law biding
Jackie Jones he had 'em a habit, he couldn't stop
give me 500 dollars
And sell you my Les Paul God Top

I drove my car down to Ross Avenue
And I it
I guess I should have him
He to the police someone stole it

It was the first of many bad decisions
I was to make for the next 20
Oh, but I had me a

Everybody
That the nightlife
Begins after the clubs
they call after hours

It's 2 a.m. and everybody's
But the band, the and Jack Jones
And then the girls from the strip club come over
After put their clothes back on

So I'm at Ma and I'm sitting on an amp
I'm "Twist and Shout"
And this tall drink of water in
Like she have to shoot her way out

She up to me and she said
"You anything good on that guitar?"
I say nothing, I just kept on playing
She said, "Have you heard this song
Called Polk Salad Annie?" I just kept

She said, "Every time I that song
My insides like warm butter
And I just wanna take off my
And dance in my underwear"

I said, "Down in
Where the alligator so mean"
That's all I knew of it and it was

So we hit it off, me and dancer
We hit it off like a
Like a metaphor for a bomb
We was uranium, super critical mass
We was a chain reaction, it was and lust
Aw, mostly lust but a mutual

So there I was boys at 21 old, I had it all
I had a stripper girlfriend and a Gold Top Les Paul
Aw, the future, it looked
Oh but were dark clouds on the horizon

She was a girl
But she liked to Tequila and that ain't all
I come home 4 or 5
And she my Les Paul

We broke up and she to Hollywood
She married an

She got a job on the Hudson Brothers TV show
And lipstick from Max Factor
I got over her, I'm glad she alright
I'm she done alright, oh yes, I am

Well now me, I never busted through the
Into the big as a rock and roll star
For 40 I just carried around an old Gold Top guitar

But love and fate are things
In this old world
It was 20 years ago I up marrying
That Blues door girl

We had us a boy, he's 18 old now, he's playing guitar
He ended up with that Les Gold Top, yes, he did
Now I don't know if gonna hang his life on it or not
But I'm very for the time I get to share the stage with him

I'm grateful for the time I get to with musicians
Like George Reiff and Rick
I'm grateful I get to write these old songs
And travel around the and play them for people

And come out and hear me play
And the days that I my gratitude
Higher than my
Well, I have really days
