Down at Teresa's the music would never stop
Down at Teresa's the music would never stop
I was just young blood, the new kid on the block
Junior grabbed my collar, he asked me Do you know what you did?
Junior grabbed my collar, he asked me Do you know what you did?
I said come on up in here The show's been messing with the kids
I blew out a little, sucked in and made them stop
I blew out a little, sucked in and made them stop
They knew I was the new kid on the block
Big Walter Horton's hands caught him too
Said I'm gonna show you just what to do
Caravan of Junior used to cut my hair
I took a lot of cuttings but I sure ain't dead
I had to blow, oh lord I couldn't stop
I had to blow, oh lord I couldn't stop
I had to play the blues when I was the new kid on the block
ย
Played my blues for 20 years
How could I forget about Lefty D
JFR was playing with Willie D
Took me along as a young trainee
Cotton used to take me in his Cadillac
Blew me away till I rode the right track
Music grabbed me, lord it wouldn't stop
Music grabbed me, lord it wouldn't stop
When I was a young blood, the new kid on the block
You know what, y'all?
What's happening, man, what's happening?
Hey, Cotton? Yeah?
Hey, Junior, you up there, man?
(Yeah, brother, I'm here, I'm right here, I'm right here, I'm right here)
You know, y'all used to do me kind of dirty, man (Oh, yeah?)
Hey, Junior, you remember I used to come down to Teresa's every Monday? (Oh, yeah)
Used to cut my head regularly (yeah)
And, Cotton, you wouldn't know better (yeah)
Take me in that old Cadillac and whip that chromatic on me man
I used to feel so bad, man
(Those ones are good all day)
Yeah, good for you, but I used to walk down with my head hanging down, I'd feel bad
Hey, Junior Can I blow it, man?
Did you teach me right here?
(I hope so, brother)
Well can I try it one more time?
(Let me hear you, let me hear you Yeah)
ย
Yeah, the new kid on the block
The new kid on the block
The new kid on the block
The new kid on the block
The new kid on the block
