Karaoké The Blues Man Alan Jackson

He's just a singer a natural born guitar ringer

Kind of a clinger to sad old songs

He's not a walk behinder

He's a new note finder

His name's a reminder of a blues man that's already gone

So he started drinkin' took some things that messed up his thinkin'

He was sure sinkin'

When she came along he was alone in the spot light

Not too much left in sight she changed all that one night when she sang him this song

Hey baby I love you

Hey baby I need you

Hey baby you ain't got to prove to me

You're some kind of macho man

You've wasted so much of your life runnin' through the dark nights

Let me shine a little love light down on that blues man

He got so sick from speedin' all the things they said he was needin'

If he is to keep on pleasin' all of his fans

He got cuffed on dirt roads

He got sued over no shows

She came and took all that old load down off that blues man and he said

Hey baby I love you too

Hey baby I need you

Hey baby I do get tired of this travellin' band

I'm over fourty years old now

Nights would be cold now

If you hadn't stuck it out with this blues man

He's over fourty years old now

Nights would be so cold now if she hadn't hung around with that blues man
