Oh, yeah, I know, I know, I
I remember when I was seventeen The Bohemian and disciple of the streets Or was I just kid searching for identity in '63
Heard it on the radio on a December night It came down the air waves like a savior's shinin' light All the way from the U.S.A, the Atlantic Far away the magic
The house began to rock cupid and his bow The kootchy man's lonely harp began to blow did I know that nothing in my life would ever be the same
Stayed up all night every 45 tryin' to sound like you Strummed my guitar in bed till my fingers bled tryin' to play you
you, Sam, thank you, Otis Thank you Muddy for the sounds you Thank you, Sam, thank you, Thank you, Muddy for the times we And they on
I saw Otis back in Tears in my eyes as he sung, these arms of But needed a soul man for the celestial blues band They him home (Took you home)
Oh, what I'd give to see that red suit and hear of the bay Or Sam in his two singin', bring it on back home a show that would be
Thank you, Sam, thank you, Thank you Muddy for the you made Thank you, Sam, you, Otis Thank you, for the times we shared And they on
If I sound sentimental it's because blue-eyed soul boys Got so much My gratitude to you runs deep, and true I never forget
you, Sam, thank you, Otis Thank you Muddy for the sounds you you, Sam, thank you, Otis Thank you, muddy for the you gave
Thank you, Sam, you, Otis Thank you Muddy for the you made Thank you, Sam, thank you, Thank you, muddy for the you gave
Thank you, Sam, you, Sam Thank you, Otis, thank you, You'll never, fade away
