Lyrics

What can a man do
When the blues keep following him around?
What can a poor man do
When the blues, when the blues keep following him around?
Get him a half-a pint of good liquor
And sit there and drink 'em on down, have mercy
Look out!
The way I feel sometimes
I feel, I feel like drinkin' me some gasoline
Woo, I'm tellin' you, the way I feel sometimes
I feel like, I feel just like drinkin' me some gasoline
Strikin' me a match
And blow my, blow my fool-self up in steam
Hey
Play the blues, play the blues, play the blues
Alright
Alright
I think I'll move back down south
Where the water tastes just like cherry wine, alright
I think I'll move back down south
People, where the water tastes to me like cherry wine
'Cause this Lake Michigan water
Tastes to me just like turpentine
Now let me have it, now
Written by: Buddy Guy
