WHEN A GUITAR PLAYS THE BLUES

Albert Collins - 1983


You get the strangest kinda feelin', that's when the guitar plays the blues
I say, you get the strangest kinda feelin', that's when a guitar plays the blues
Your body gets the message, and you know, you know, your soul has just got to move

You might even bat your eye
You might even snap or cry
The feelin' you're feelin' within you babe
You know you just can't hide

You're kinda strokin' like that
You're kinda bendin' like this
And it reaches down inside you
And your soul just can't resist
You get the same kinda feelin'
When the guitar plays the blues
Your body sure gets the message
Yes, you know, you know, your soul has just got to move

And when the music is over
And it's time to turn out the lights
You know the blues goes home with ya
Soothes you through the night

You get the strange kinda feelin'
When the guitar plays the blues
Your body gets the message
And you know, you know, you know
Your soul has just got to move
