Well, I tried to run my game
She said "Man, that's the same old thing I've heard before"
And I'm too tired to groove for your show
Again and again
Then she started to explain
She said "Man, I ain't sayin' what you're playin' just can't make it
And I just can't take it anymore"
Play somethin' sweet (sweet), play somethin' mellow (mellow)
Play somethin' I can sink my teeth in like Jello
Play something I can understand
Play me some Backyard Blues
Well, I started to sweat
She said "Don't get upset 'cause you might break a string
And that won't do a thing for your show, oh no
Then I said to myself
I said "Self, don't you see what is sailin' through my soul?"
And I've got to have some more, don't you know?
Ooh yeah
Sweet, funky
It's enough to make it light in the dark
It's enough to make a bite just a bark
It's enough to make a body move around
It's enough to make a rabbit hug a dog
Play it sweet (sweet), play it mellow (mellow)
Play somethin' I can sink my teeth in like Jello
Oh (I can understand)
Yeah (Play me some Backyard Blues)
Ooh yeah
Oh, play it sweet (sweet), oh, funky (funky)
Oh, lay back and grin like a monkey
I said, I can understand
Play me some Backyard Blues
Ooh yeah
Oh, play it sweet, play it mellow
I said (I can understand)
(Play me some Backyard Blues)
I can feel the blues, I can hear the blues
