Buddy Guy Album

What can a poor man do, you know when the blues keep bothering him around
What can a poor man do, you know when the blues keep bothering him around
Give him a half pint of good liquor, and sit down and drink it all down
You know, sometimes I feel, I feel like drinkin' me some gasoline
You know, sometimes I feel, I feel like drinkin' me some gasoline
Strikin' me a match and blow myself up in steam
I feel I'm gonna move on back down south,
you know where the water tastes like cherry wine
I feel I'm gonna move on back down south,
you know where the water tastes like cherry wine
Because this crap of whiskey and water tastes to me like turpentine

One, two, three, hit it
Alright, alright then

Wow, I can't get used of it baby, now
I can't get used of the blues

I can't get used of the blues

I don't want to lose you
This good thing
That I've got 'cause if I do
I will surely, surely lose a lot

'Cause her love is better
Than any love I know
It's like thunder and lightning
The way your love is frightening
I better knock on wood, baby

I'm not superstitious about you
But I can't take no chance
You got me spinnin', baby
Baby I'm in a trance

'Cause your love is better
Than any love I know
It's like thunder and lightning
The way you love me is frightening
I better knock on wood, baby

It's no secret that woman
Fills my loving cup
'Cause she sees to it
That I get enough

Just one touch from her
You know it means so much
It's like thunder and lightning
The way your love is frightening
I better knock on wood
Baby, I better knock

Think I better knock on wood
Think I better knock on wood
Think I better knock on wood
Think I better knock, knock, knock
Think I better knock, knock, knock

Ohh, I'm playing this morning
Please don't let those jet-engines start

Ohh, I'm playing this morning
Please, please don't let those jet-engines start

When I hear your engines goin'
You know, it almost drives me out of my mind

Oh, but the last few morings lately
Before I get out of my bed

Oh, but the last few morings lately
Just before I get out of my bed


You know I can hear your engines goin'
And it almost drives me out of my head

Oh, but the last few morings lately
Before, before I get out of my bed

Oh, but the last, but the last, but the last few morings lately
Before, before I get out of my bed

Well, you know I can hear your engines goin'
You know, it almost drives me out of my head

I'm ready, ready as any man can be
I'm ready, ready as any man can be
You know I'm ready for you
And I hope you're ready for me

I got an axe-hounds pistol build on a graveyard frame
That shoots tombstone bullets somewhere and a ball and chain
I'm drinkin' TNT, you know, I'm smokin' dynamite
You know I hope some screwball start a fight

'Cause I'm ready, oh aha
You know I'm ready for you
And I hope you're ready for me

Say now you pretty little chicks with your curly hair
I know you feel just like I ain't nowhere
But stop what your doin' and baby come over here
You know I can prove to ya baby that I ain't no square

'Cause I'm ready, sure enough now
You know I'm ready for you
And I hope you're ready for me

Come on let's get together now

Say now you pretty little chicks come here with your curly hair,
I know you feel just like I ain't nowhere
But stop what your doin' and baby come over here
You I can prove to ya baby that I ain't no square

'Cause I'm ready, sure enough now
You know I'm ready for you
And I hope you're ready for me

I've been drinkin' gin like never before
I feel so good, you know, I just gotta let you know
One more drink, you know and I wish you would
I takes a whole lotta lovin' to make me feel good

' Cause I'm ready, sure enough now
You know I'm ready for you,
And I hope you're ready for me

Oh, I'm ready
Oh, I'm ready
Ohhhhooo Lord

You know I'm ready for you
And I hope you're ready for me

Yeah

It's your time now baby
Ohh but it's gonna be mine after awhile
I said it's your time right now baby
Lord but it's gonna be mine after awhile
You know you know if things don't change
I'm gonna move on down

She stayed out last night
And do you know she just walked in
The girl is gettin' ready
She's going back out again
I said just wait one minute
Just before you go
She didn't even look at me
She just turned and walked out the door

It's your time, it's your time, it's your time right now
Ohh, I gotta, I gotta, I gotta feelin'


Ohh it's gonna, it's gonna, it's gonna be my time after awhile

I got a look through my window
And guess what I seen
My baby sat with another man
In a long black limosine

I said it's your time, it's your time
Yes you know I, you know I got that feelin' woman
Baby it's gonna be my time after awhile

I just wanna talk to my baby:
And here's what I wanna say
Go ahead on and mistreat me
But every every dog got his day wow

Somebody better come here and get me baby
I just want to talk to my baby

You don't love
You don't love me, yes I know
You don't love
You don't love me, yes I know
Well I found out baby
That you sure gonna let me go

Well I feelin'
Girl you got me feelin' so bad
Well I feelin'
Girl you got me feelin' so bad
Well it's the worst of feelings
Worst of feelings that I ever had

Want you to tell me
Tell me what you got on your mind
I want you to tell me
Tell me what you got on your mind
I know you're doin' alright
Honey you got to be doing just fine


Well I feel
Feel so bad that I wanna cry
Well I feelin'
Feel so bad I wanna cry
One more bad shake like this
You know I, you know I wish that I would die

Hello San Francisco
Oh, we finally got a chance to meet
Hello, hello San Francisco
Wo, we finally got a chance to meet
I knew someday
That I would walk up and down your hilly streets

You know I love Chicago
Someone tell me it's nineteen and sixty eight
You know I love, I love Chicago
Somewhere around nineteen and sixty eight
But some of my good friends told me
That my baby was headed toward that Golden Gate

You know, I heard she had a boyfriend
And this cat's name was Buddy Joe
You know, I heard she had a boyfriend
And this cat's name was Buddy Joe
I heard he was a big time gambler
and he was running a game down on Philmo

Oh somebody tell me, tell me
Where can this Philmo street be found
Oh somebody, somebody better tell me
Where in the world can this Philmo street be found
You know I'm gonna find my woman down there
You think I'm gonna try to find that Philmo district down
