Hey little girl with your ruby red lips

You look so cute with your hands on your hips

I know a place on the edge of town

They play blues music when the sun goes down

They call that place the Sugar Shack

Slip through the bar to a room out the back

It’s on the wrong side of the railroad tracks

A crazy little joint where we can relax

They got dobro steel and a white double bass

A big black bouncer with a smile on his face

Down in the swamp where the horny owl hoots,

That’s where I get my blues and roots (...music that is!)


Chorus:

Two old coots, dressed in suits, playing blues and roots,

Never goin’ out of fashion (Blues & Roots Music, Blues & Roots)

Got a good beat, make you tap your feet,

Blues and Roots Music

Got authentic style - by a country mile

Sugar Shack bar-flies playing blues and roots music

That’s my passion …….I don’t give two hoots

Just got to get my blues and roots (music)

Take you driving in my pink Cadillac

It’s got white wall wheels and a tele in the back

At the Sugar Shack Bar you’ll never feel blue

We’re gonna shimmy, gonna boogie boogaloo

I got a cowboy shirt and snakeskin boots

All I need now is blues and roots (music that is...)

I’m a simple man and I feel desire

Rootsy music gonna take you higher

And when we stumble back to my hotel room

I’m gonna show you how to boom, boom, boom

We’ll get together girl, in cahoots

I’m gonna teach you ‘bout blues and roots (...music that is)

Two old coots, dressed in suits, playing blues and roots

Never goin’ out of fashion (Blues & Roots Music, Blues & Roots)

Got a good beat, make you tap your feet,

Blues and Roots Music

Got authentic style - by a country mile

Sugar Shack bar-flies playing blues and roots music

That’s my passion …….I don’t give two hoots

Just got to get my blues and roots (...music)
