Play Something Sweet

Well I tried to run my game She said man that`s the same old thing I`ve heard before And I`m too tired to go for your show again and again And she started to explain She said man I ain`t sayin` what your playin` just can`t make it But I just can`t take it anymore Play something sweet, play something mellow Play something I can sink my teeth in like jello Play something I can understand Play me some brickyard blues Play something sweet, now make it funky Just make me lay back and grin like a monkey Play something I can understand Play me some brickyard blues. Well I started to sweat She said don`t get upset, cause you just might break a string And that won`t do a thing for your show, no So I said to myself I said self do you see what is sailing through my soul And I got to have some more, don`t you know. Play something sweet, play something mellow Play something I can sink my teeth in like jello Play something I can understand Play me some brickyard blues Play something sweet, now make it funky Just make me lay back and grin like a monkey Play something I can understand Play me some brickyard blues. It`s enough to make a light in the dark It`s enough to make a bite just a bark It`s enough to make a body move around It`s enough to make a rabbit hug a hound. Play something sweet, play something mellow Play something I can sink my teeth in like jello Play something I can understand Play me some brickyard blues Play something sweet, now make it funky Just make me lay back and grin like a monkey Play something I can understand Play me some brickyard blues.
