When my baby leaves me, there's nothing I can do
I pick up my guitar, play a blues or two
Now, a man needs somebody, I ain't different from the rest
When my baby leaves me, my whole life is in a mess

Well, me and my guitar
I play the blues for you, baby
No matter where you are

I like to start out easy, just to get the feel
When I feel restrained, you know I make it for real
Then I put some hot sauce on it, and I play it a time or two
I'm gonna love you, baby, I don't care what you do

Hey baby, me and my guitar
I play the blues for you, baby
No matter where you are

Satisfaction don't come easy, you gotta get on to make it good
The way I make my guitar sing, just like my woman should
She never talk back to me like some women do
I feel so sad and lonesome when I play this lowdown blues

Hey baby, me and my guitar
I play the blues for you, baby
No matter where you are
Hey baby
