Me and My Old Man (Steven D. Cohen; sung by Jason “JT Catfish” Cohen)

Didn’t know that I’d want to, but I knew I could
Then I turned 13 and I knew that I should
Grandad sent me money, for a birthday guitar
Love this music, ain’t tryin’ to be no star]

Sometimes we get funky, sometimes we just groove
But we always have a good time
Me and my Old Man playin’ the blues

Cut my first teeth, down at Bob’s pub
Ronnie Vice got the blues jam
It helped me learn my stuff
So I dug real deep, tryin to find my way
Pops said if it ain’t got feel
Then you don’t have nothin’ to say

Sometimes we shuffle, play a down and dirty slow tune
Keeps me ridin’ on that soul train
Me and my Old Man playin’ the blues

Always pay tribute, to the three kings
Albert, Freddie and BB, inspired me to do my thing
Ray Charles and Elmore, John Lee speak the truth
I turn to Robert Johnson when I need to find my roots

Sometimes we swim in muddy waters
Howlin’ at the wolf too
Yeah we sing alot of Willie Dixon
And Jimmy Reed is our insurance
Yeah we always have a good time
Me and my Old Man playin’ the Blues
