(sambora)

He was a man
A ramblin man he was yes he was
Guitar in hand
His home was on the road and thats where he was

Hes seen a thousand roads
Hes been a million miles
And when hed bend a note
A tear would fill my eyes
Where are you playin
Mr. bluesman
Mr. bluesman

Town to town
Honkytonks and dives all look the same
His gipsy heart keeps his shadow ridin through the rain

A graveyard full of scars
His life will paint his songs
cause when youre on the road
Theres nowhere you belong
Youre just alone
Where are you playin
Mr. bluesman
Mr. bluesman

Hes seen a thousand roads
Hes been a million miles
And when hed bend a note
A tear would fill my eyes
Where are you playin
Mr. bluesman
Mr. bluesman

Ive paid some dues
Now I make my living as a music man
I play the blues
I guess the blues must be just what I am

A graveyard full of scars
His life will paint his songs
cause when youre on the road
Theres nowhere you belong
Youre just alone
Where are you playin
Mr. bluesman
Mr. bluesman

Hes seen a thousand roads
Hes been a million miles
And when hed bend a note
A tear would fill my eyes
Where are you playin
Mr. bluesman
Mr. bluesman
