[E] [A] [E] [Em] [D]
[E] [D] [E] [B]
[E] Sugar's got some sweetness to it as do my baby's lips
And once you hear some old howlin' wolf she got to [G] move her hips
[E] She ain't much for the bluegrass fiddle she likes that bottleneck [D] slide
[E] A little kick with a lot of bottom let the resonator take a [Em] ride
So listen up, all the day here I'm talkin' bout them country blues
[E]
Now you can take some black diamond [E] strings and put them on a [G] J45
[E] You hit them chords you get that thump you're down right [D] sanctified
[E] Or you can take a lipstick pick up and play it through a Fendi twig
It's so sweet, so goddamn sweet when it squirts, squirts, and bleeds
So listen [Em] up, all the day here I'm talkin' bout them country [E] blues
[D] [G] [E] [D]
Now [Em] [G]
[E] you

[D]
[Em] [E] [D]
[Em] know [E]
[Em] [E] I'm strong for the Union and rank [Em] and file
[E] And I talk with a southern drawl and I still say,
Hunnit [G] child, [E] I'm partial to old hookers
Singing a crawling king snake, and I can say that
Muddy waters is as deep [Em] as William Blake, so listen up
Y'all, oh looky here, I'm talking
About them country blues
Oh listen, oh looky here
[E] I'm talking [Em] about them country [E] blues
[D] About [E] [Em]
[D] them [E] down [A] home [G] country [E] blues
