Sonny

Horn man, 
Blues man, 
Play and sing as soon as you can

My soul's been trying 
And my lil' heart's been crying
My woman's been lying
And my nosey neighbors been prying

Horn man, 
Blues man, 
Play and sing as soon as you can

My pockets ain't got no money
And my love ain't got no honey
My eyes and nose real runny
It's been cloudy, real cloudy so HELP ME, please
play for me, Sonny
