I play my music, the only way that I can
Play my music only, only way I can
Some people really dig it, some just don't understand

I play my music only, only way I can
I play my music, play it the only way I can
Some people really dig it, some just don't understand

I don't play the drums
I can't disco dance
But I can play the blues
Put you in a trance

I can play my music, only way I can
Some people really dig it
Some just don't understand

Give my blues song, I'll play it all night long
Give me a blues song, I'll play it all night long
It may not sound right to you but I know that, that ain't wrong

I don't do no country
I don't do no jazz
I don't do no punk rock
That kinda razz-ma-tazz

I play my blues song
The only way I can
Some people really dig it
Some just don't understand

Ooh-ho, yeah
