Albert King - I'll Play the Blues for You, Pts. 1-2 (extended version)

If you're down an' out, an' you feel real hurt

Come on over, to the place where I work

An' all your loneliness, I'll try to soothe

I'll play the blues for you



Don't be afraid, come on in

You might run across, yeah, some of your old friends

All your loneliness, I've got to soothe

I'll play the blues for you



Come on in, sit right here, let's rap awhile

Ya see I'm kinda lonely too, ya know?

An' loneliness is a very bad thing

If ya let it get the best of ya

An' loneliness can get ya down, ya know?



Yeah, yeah, are you comfortable now?

Yeah, yeah, that's outta sight

Yeah, as I was sayin' before

Loneliness can get you down, an' I have heard of, ah

Loneliness blowin' some good people's mind, ya know?



But ya can't do that

This is a big world, this is a big world

An' there's too many nice things happenin' in this world

You're a very pretty girl

Where you live?



No, no, no, disregard that, that's okay, that's okay

Most important thing, I wanna know you

I say, I wanna know you

That's groovy, ain't it?

I'll play the blues for you



I ain't got no big name

Oh Lord, an' I ain't no big star

I'll play the blues for you on my guitar



All your loneliness, I'll try to soothe

I'll play the blues for you



Excuse me
