[Verse 1]
Well I'm just a singer
A natural born guitar ringer
I'm kind of a clinger to sad ol' songs
Not a walk behinder
I'm a new note finder
My name's a reminder
Of a blues man that's already gone

[Verse 2]
So I started drinkin'
I took some things that messed up my thinkin'
I was sure sinkin' when you came along
I was alone in the spotlight
Not too much left in sight
She changed all that one night
When she sang me this song

[Chorus]
Hey baby I love you
Hey baby I need you
And baby you ain't gotta prove
You're some kind of macho man
You've wasted so much of your life
Runnin' through the dark nights
Let mе shine a little love light
Down on this bluеs man
[Verse 3]
I got so sick from speedin'
All the things they said I was needin'
If I was to keep on pleasin' all of my fans
I got cuffed on dirt roads
I got sued over no shows
She came and took all that ol' load
Down off this blues man

[Chorus]
And hey baby I love you
And hey baby I need you
And baby I do get tired
This ole travellin' band
I'm almost 30 years old now
Nights would be cold now
If you hadn't hung around with this blues man

[Post Chorus]
Almost 30 years old now
Nights would be cold now
If you hadn't hung around this blues man

[Outro]
I'm almost 30 years old now
Nights would be cold now
If you hadn't stuck it out
With this blues man
This blues man
