        E
I could really get off being in your shoes
          E
I used to be stone sold on rhythm and blues
  A
A heard of a place at the back of town
          E
Where you really kick the shit when the sun goes down

  E
I really got buzzed when your sister said
E
"Throw away them records `cause the blues is dead
 A
Let me take you honey where the scene's on fire"
    B                                      A     E
And tonight I learned for certain that the blues expired

         B
Oh your sister can't twist but she can rock and roll
E
She out bucks the broncos in the rodeo-do
B
She's only sixteen but it's plain to see
E
She can pull the wool over little old me
     A
Your sister can't twist but she can rock and roll
     B
Your sister can't twist but she got more soul than me

Somebody help me `cause the bug bit me
Now I'm in heaven with the aching feet
But I'll be back tonight where the music plays
And your sister rocks all my blues away

I really got buzzed when your sister said
"Throw away them records `cause the blues is dead
Let me take you honey where the scene's on fire"
And tonight I learned for certain that the blues expired
