Buddy Guy

George "Buddy" Guy (born July 30, 1936) is an American blues guitarist and singer. Critically acclaimed, he is a pioneer of the Chicago blues sound and has served as an influence to some of the most notable musicians of his generation, including Eric Clapton, Jimi Hendrix and Stevie Ray Vaughan. In the 1960s Guy was a member of Muddy Waters' band and was a house guitarist at Chess Records. He can be heard on Howlin' Wolf's "Killing Floor" and Koko Taylor's "Wang Dang Doodle" as well as on his own Chess sides and the fine series of records he made with harmonica player Junior Wells. more »

When my baby she left me 
She left me with a mule to ride 
When my baby she left me 
She left me with a mule to ride 
When her train left the station 
That old mule laid down and died 

Man I sent this woman 
A brand new twenty dollar bill 
Lord I sent that woman 
A brand new twenty dollar bill 
Now if that don't bring her back 
I'm sure this old shotgun will 

Lake Michigan ain't no river 
Chicago ain't no hill town 
Lake Michigan ain't no river 
Chicago ain't no hill town 
If I feel like this tomorrow 
I'm gonna clear out be back down Memphis bound 

I'll be standing down on the landing 
When the big boat pull off and roll 
I'll be standing on the landing 
When the big boat pull off and roll 
I'll be hopin and I'll be prayin 
That I never see your face no more 

When my baby left me 
She left me with a mule to ride 
When my baby she left me 
She left me with a mule to ride 
When her train left the station 
That old mule laid down and died 

Lord I sent that woman 
A brand new twenty dollar bill 
Man I sent my baby 
A brand new twenty dollar bill 
Now if that don't bring her back 
I'm sure my shotgun will
