Luyện nghe bài hát Mother Blues

When I was a man
About 21 years old
All I wanted was a stripper
And a Gold Top Les
Be careful of the you wish for
You get 'em

There was a night club in
Mother Blues
It's where Lightning Hopkins
And Freddy King even some dues

All the dealers and
And young white hipsters, they all made the
The at the door who checked ID's
Was 16

Aw, it was not a for law biding citizens
Jackie Jones he had 'em a habit, he just stop
give me 500 dollars
And I'll you my Les Paul God Top

I drove my daddy's car to Ross Avenue
And I it
I I should have told him
He to the police someone stole it

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

knows
That the nightlife
Begins the clubs close
What call after hours

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

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

She up to me and she said
"You know anything good on guitar?"
I didn't say nothing, I kept on playing
She said, "Have you ever heard this
Polk Salad Annie?" I just kept playing

She said, "Every time I hear that
My feel like warm butter
And I wanna take off my clothes
And dance in my underwear"

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

So we hit it off, me and this
We hit it off like a
Like a metaphor for a hydrogen
We was enriched uranium, super mass
We was a chain reaction, it was love and
Aw, mostly lust but a attraction

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 there were clouds on the horizon

She was a beautiful
But she liked to drink Tequila and that all
I come home 4 or 5
And she pawned my Les

We broke up and she to Hollywood
She married an

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

Well now me, I never busted through the
the big time as a rock and roll star
For 40 years I 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 years old now, playing guitar
He ended up with that Les Gold Top, yes, he did
Now I don't know if he's gonna his life on it or not
But I'm very grateful for the time I get to share the with him

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

And they come out and hear me
And the that I keep my gratitude
Higher my expectations
Well, I really good days
