My dad bought me a uke One lucky winter's day This land is your land on one string You could hear me play all day I heard the cheers and loving words But I wasn't stirred just yet Kick a ball against the garage door Seemed like a better bet But with Sonny Terry and Brownie McGee Blues came rolling down the stairs From the attic of my bigger brothers Long haired and dressed in flares But the biggest blow had yet to come The one that sucked my soul right in And it wasn't only picks and strums That came en settled under my skin Electricity & drums Got me the best of my chums To define my own to and froms Electricity And drums Winwood was only seventeen I wasn't even ten Gimme some lovin' really lit me up It came and never went And then Jimi broke like every mold What could a young boy do but try To do just what he thinks he's told Fly up and kiss the sky Electricity & drums Got me the best of my chums To define my own to and froms Electricity Electricity & drums Woke up the numbest of numbs Gimme a little old amp that hums Electricity & drums
