A Little Rock 'N' Roll (And Some Country Blues) - John Anderson

I guess I went crazy at about fifteen

With a hand full of talent and a head full of dreams

Pickin' on the front porch, girls started hanging around

But they didn’t know that all I could do

Was a little rock 'n' roll and some country blues

Round about twenty, my daddy said, «Son

Take some caution on the road that you’re on

Get yourself a trade, boy, something to fall back on»

But it was in my blood running hot and true

It was a little rock 'n' roll and some country blues

I’ve played the big time, standing the morning

Some small smokey bars full of heroes and lonely’s

I plead from the heart, Lord, and all I would use

Was a little rock 'n' roll and some country blues

Sweet country blues, yeah

From the country back roads to fortune and fame

I’ve had my share of pleasures and pain

People ask me, «What keeps driving you on?»

The answer is easy when you love what you do

It’s a little rock 'n' roll and some country blues

I’ve played the big time, standing the morning

Some small smokey bars full of heroes and lonely’s

I plead from the heart, Lord, and all I would use

Was a little rock 'n' roll and some country blues

Sweet country blues, yeah

Sweet country blues
