If you're lonesome and you're feeling blue
Let me tell you what to do
Baby, get down 'n play the blues

Don't let the folks around here drive you crazy
Just sit back and take it easy
Baby, get down 'n play the blues

Dig the music let it turn you on
Rocking to the boogie-rhythm all night long
Baby, get down 'n play the blues

Tuba at the bottom to hold it down
Roll on easy, man, I love that sound
Baby, get down 'n play the blues

Steady beat and a funky tune
Pickin' and a-grinnin' by the light of the moon
Baby, get down 'n play the blues

Get some action, move your feet
Satisfaction guaranteed
Baby, get down 'n play the blues

If your knees are knocking and you feel like rocking
If your hips are shaking and the strings ain't breaking
Baby, get down 'n play the blues

It don't cost money, just take your time
We'll be hoppin'-and-a-boppin' till the morning-light
Baby, get down 'n play the blues
