Danko Jones - Play The Blues Lyrics

I love to play my rock'n'roll but I've played the Blues before
Had my share of broken hearts but I don't play the Blues no more
So if you meet the girl of your wildest dreams she's gonna turn out to be a curse
Love will hit you bad boy, but the Blues will hit you worse

If you wanna know how to play the Blues... get yourself a woman

Muddy Waters sang out the truth back in 1941
Woman gonna get to you like Jimi Hendrix with a gun
Mr. Fred McDowell lot hit pride when he begged his girl to stay
Mr. Robert Johnson lost his life with too much love one day

So if you wanna know how to play the Blues... get yourself a woman

(Repeat 1st verse)

So if you wanna know how to play the Blues... get yourself a woman
Pick it sweet and slide it slow
