Me and My Chauffeur Blues

Little Walter, born Marion Walter Jacobs (May 1, 1930 – February 15, 1968), was an American blues harmonica player, whose revolutionary approach to his instrument has earned him comparisons to Charlie Parker and Jimi Hendrix, for innovation and impact on succeeding generations. His virtuosity and musical innovations fundamentally altered many listeners' expectations of what was possible on blues harmonica. Little Walter was inducted to the The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2008 in the "sideman" category making him the first and only artist ever to be inducted specifically for his work as a harmonica player. more »

Won't you be my chauffeur 
 Won't you be my chauffeur 
 I wants him to drive me 
 I wants him to drive me downtown 
 Yes he drives so easy, I can't turn him down 
 But I don't want him 
 But I don't want him 
 To be ridin' these girls 
 To be ridin' these girls around 
 So I'm gonna steal me a pistol, shoot my chauffeur down 
 Well I must buy him 
 Well I must buy him 
 A brand new V8 
 A brand new V8 Ford 
 Then he won't need no passengers, I will be his load 
 (spoken: Yeah, take it away) 
 Going to let my chauffeur 
 Going to let my chauffeur 
 Drive me around the 
 Drive me around the world 
 Then he can be my little boy, yes, I'll be his girl
