INTRO:

I’m slippin’ into Slidell, the boys and me
Take a left at the Texaco, gonna see Sweet Marie
She plays down at Jimbeaux’s Gumbo and Washtub
In calico and barefeet in a band called the Mudbugs
I been workin’ up my nerve and I can hardly wait
Tonight when she asks for request
I’ll stand up and say

I wanna be your squeeze box
Always at your fingertips
I wanna be your blues harp
A little closer to your lips
Let me be your washboard
You can play me fast or slow
Squeeze box, blues harp, washboard baby
Anything you can hold

Got a bucket full of crawfish, a seat on the front row
Just to sit this close to her, it’s like a shot of tabasco
Makin’ trips to the tip jar, keep it full of dollar bills
Tonight I’m gonna go for broke, show her just how I feel
One way or another, Lord, she’s gonna notice me
If I have to jump up on that stage and get down on my knees
I’ll be beggin her please
Let me be your squeeze box
Always at your fingertips
I wanna be your blues harp
A little closer to your lips
Let me be your washboard
You can play me fast or slow
Squeeze box, blues harp, washboard baby
Anything you can hold
Squeeze box, blues harp, washboard, baby
Anything you can hold

A E A E A fade out

Intro: A-B-E-Bm
My baby gets me shakin’ – she’s got a way of makin’ me

Feel like I’m still seventeen
She gets me high-she gets me low-and in between

Blue eyes she’s got ‘em – legs on the bottom

She tippy-toed right out of a dream
She’s got it high – she’s got it low – and in bewteen
Chorus
Now I’m higher than a flag on the 4th of July

Low down in love and she’s the reason why
She gets a hold of me and takes complete control of me
If you know what I mean
My baby’s got me – high-low – and in between

Now baby’s got the kind of kiss – you could start a fire with

she don’t need no gasoline
I’m burnin’ high – I’m burnin’ low – and in between
I’ll find ‘er on the second floor and chase ‘er through the cellar door

And catch ‘er by the washin’ machine
She takes me high – she takes me low – and in between

Repeat Chorus

Instrumental: Bm-E-A-B-E-Bm-E

Repeat Chorus

My baby’s got me – high-low – and in between
Well, she’s got it high – she’s got me low – and in between

This is the way I play it. Capo on 2nd fret

“Places I’ve Never Been”

I’d never seen the sun set Montigo Bay
But my heart melts when you look at me that way
And I’ve never seen the snow fall, from a Rocky Mt. sky
But I get chill just by looking in your eyes

CHORUS
’Cause you take me places I’ve never been
I travel the world in your arms and back again
I have no need to wander or go chasing those four winds
C G 2ND x around (Em C)
‘Cause you take me places I’ve never been

And they never seen the wonders of this earth
And I may never hold the treasures of this world
And I could search the whole world over
But I don’t have to go that far
I've got it all right here in my arms

’Cause you take me places I’ve never been
