Lyrics
I got the six string fever when I was but a baby boy
I developed a passion for playing the guitar from a very young age.
Addiction, affliction all I know it brings me so much joy
My love for playing the guitar is all-consuming and brings me immense happiness.
Rock and roll, Memphis soul, Mussel Shoals played me some gospel too
I've been influenced by various music styles, including rock and roll, Memphis soul, Mussel Shoals, and gospel.
Now I put that all together and do this thing I call riffin' the blues.
I combine these influences to create my own style of playing, which I call "riffin' the blues."
Been around the world and I picked me up a trick or two
I've traveled extensively and learned valuable guitar-playing techniques from the best in the world.
Learned from the very best kind enough to show me what to do
I'm grateful to those who shared their knowledge and skills with me.
Of all that Cannonball, heard his call - he took this old boy to school
Cannonball, possibly a reference to a guitarist, had a significant impact on my musical education.
Might just hear his guitar sing in this thing I call riffin’ the blues
I might hear Cannonball's influence in my guitar playing when I'm "riffin' the blues."
I feel it in my jukin' bone. Kick up a little bit rock n roll
I can sense the music deep within me, and I infuse a bit of rock 'n' roll into it.
Give it a whole, whole lotta soul
I put a lot of soul into my music, creating a unique and heartfelt sound.
I call it rffin’ the blues – riffin’ the blues
I proudly refer to my musical style as "riffin' the blues."
Yes I’ve had the six string fever since I was a baby boy
My passion for playing the guitar started in childhood and continues to bring me joy.
And even to this day it still brings me oh so much joy
Even today, playing the guitar remains a source of great joy for me.
Rock and roll, Memphis soul, Mussel Shoal ah, and that gospel groove – yes for sure
My musical influences, including rock, soul, Mussel Shoals, and gospel, still resonate in my playing.
Love how its all come together in this thing I call riffin' the blues
All these musical elements come together harmoniously in my distinctive style of "riffin' the blues."
Yes, I feel it in my jukin' bone. Kick up a little bit rock n roll
I feel the music deep within me and incorporate rock 'n' roll elements into my playing.
Give it a whole, whole lotta soul
I infuse a significant amount of soul into my music, making it rich and meaningful.
I call it rffin’ the blues – riffin’ the blues
Once again, I proudly label my musical expression as "riffin' the blues."
I feel it in my jukin' bone. Kick up a little bit rock n
The musical inspiration runs through me, and I add rock 'n' roll elements to the sound.
Give it a whole, whole lotta a soul. I call it rffin’ the blues – riffin’ the blues
I pour my soul into the music, and I proudly identify it as "riffin' the blues."
