Lyrics
DADDY WAS A BLUES MAN
By Greg Austin
Well my Daddy played guitar in a hillbilly travelin' band
Yeah he toured around the country with a guitar in his hand
And he swore one day that he would have a son
Who could pick and sing his way to number one
And be the pride of the family tree just like his old man
Verse 2
So he met a little girl and they had themselves a fling
Yeah they fell in love from heaven above and he gave her a diamond ring
Well they headed on up to Tennessee and ya know the rest is history
But I can't take all the credit for the way I sing
Chorus
Cause ya can't slow me down Lord when I'm on a roll
And if the feelin's right I'm gonna play all night, Lord til I lose control
But this country boy is steppin' out with a little bit of rhythm and soul
Cause my Daddy Was a Blues Man
And Mama loved rock n roll
Verse 3
Now every chance I get I like to take a trip back home
To talk about the friends I've made cause they're the reason I sing my songs
But I can't forget what my folks taught me about livin' right and bein' free
And I take it with me everywhere I go
Repeat Chorus
Yeah my Daddy Was a Blues Man
And Mama loved rock n roll.
