Buddy Guy - Born To Play Guitar lyrics

I was born in Louisiana And at the age of two My momma told my papa "Our little boy's got the blues" I grew up real fast And I've traveled very far One damn thing's for sure I was born to play the guitar I got a reputation And everybody knows my name I was born to play the guitar People, I got blues running through my veins Women in Chicago They love me to the bone But my love for my guitar keep me far away from home I got a reputation Oh, everybody knows my name, yeah I was born to play my guitar I got the blues running through my veins I got six strings loaded On my bad machine Show me the money And I'll make this damn thing scream I'm gonna keep on playing And on my dying day A polka-dot guitar will be resting on my grave I got this young reputation And everybody know my name "Buddy Guy, that is" You know I was born to play this here guitar I got the blues running through my veins
