The Blues Man Covered By Danny Baty

#thebluesman #alanjackson #dannybaty
I have covered this song for over 30 years and still do.
I even have a tattoo of it on my arm.
I finally decided to record and release it.
Hope you all enjoy it.
Bless and Love you all for listening..
I own no rights to this song, just my favorite song to cover
By Danny Baty

Lyrics:

He's just a singer, a natural-born guitar ringer
Kind of an old clinger, to them sad old songs
He's not a walk-behinder, he's a new note finder
And his name's a reminder of a blues man that's already gone
So he started drinkin', took some things that messed up his thinkin'
Yeah he was surely sinkin', when she came along
All alone in the hot lights, with not too much left in sight
But she came & changed all that one night, when she sang me this song

Hey baby, I love you
Hey baby, I need you
Hey baby, you ain't got to prove to me that you're some kind of macho man
You've wasted so much of your life, running through the dark nights
Let me shine some love light, down on the blues man

I got so sick from speedin', all the stuff they said he was a needin'
If he was to keep pleasin', all of his fans
He got cuffed on dirt roads, got sued over no-shows
But she came and took all that old load, down off this blues man

And I told her

Hey baby, I love you too
Hey baby, I need you
Hey baby, I sure get tired of my travelin' band
I'm over 40 years old now, the nights would be so cold now
If you hadn't stuck it out, with this blues man

Hey baby, I love you
Hey baby, I need you
Hey baby, I do get tired of my travelin' band
I'm 46 years old now, yeah the nights would be so cold now
If you hadn't stuck it out, or in
This guitar pickin', beer drinking, tequila shootin'
Blues man
