Born To Play Guitar Lyrics - Born To Play Guitar - Buddy Guy

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 

"What a guy that is" 

You know I was born to play this here guitar 

I got the blues running through my veins
