White Boy Lost In The Blues lyrics

You bought you a six string Gibson,

You bought you a great big house,

You try to sing like Muddy Waters

And play like Lightnin' sounds.

But now that we blowed a harp1

You feelin' mean and confused.

We got you chained to your earphones,

You're just a white boy lost in the blues.

You got you a '44 Desoto,

You got you a great big horn that toots,

You got some 24 karat buttons on your everyday suit,

(Lookin' good, baby)

But now that we bent our strings

You're feelin' mean and confused.

So we got you chained to your earphones,

You're just a white boy, lost in the blues.

You got you a great big house on the hillside,

Got you great big field of corn,

You got you a lovin' woman

And the bluuuues in your soul.

But now that we started cookin'

You're feelin' mean and confused.

I said we got you chained to your earphones,

You're just a white boy lost in the blues.

I said we got you chained to your earphones,

You're just a white boy lost in the blues.

I said we got you chained to your earphones,

You're just a white boy lost in the blues.
