Lyr Req: Mannish Boy

I'm looking for Muddy's Mannish Boy. There are a couple of lines that I'm not sure of even though I've listened to it for years. Couldn't find it on the DT.

Thanks in advance.

Steve

You'll find them at this site:

http://tinpan.fortunecity.com/kowalski/112/

Scroll down to bottom of home page and you will find a 'Lyrics by Artist' link. It has lyrics for over 50 Muddy Waters songs, including 'MB'.

Cheers, Stewie.

Stewie,

For some reason I couldn't get into this site last night, but succeeded today. What a great site!!!!! Thanks I could never understand what Muddy was saying between the spelling of Man and Boy. Thought it was 'That Rubber band man' but figured that couldn't be right.

Anyone even remotely interested in the blues should check this site out. Can someone do a blue clicky thing for it?

Steve

My pleasure, Steve. Here is (hopefully) a clicky thing for it click here

You probably know it already, but Blues World is another great site. The links link takes you to a vast number of blues sites. click here

Beef Stew's blues links page is also incredible click here

Hoping these clicky things work, Stewie.

Steve, the first one works okay, but not the other two. I will try again.

Blues world: click here

Beef Stew's blues links: click here

If that still doesn't work, the URLs are:

Blues World: http://www.bluesworld.com

Beef Stew's: http://users.neca.com/bfstew/links.htm

Regards, Stewie.

Steve, well another one works - 2 out of 3 ain't bad. I don't know why the Beef Stew's one won't work. It worked okay from my bookmarks and I copied from the address bar. It seems to work okay by copying it and pasting it from my posted message. I must have done something wrong with the clicky thing, but can't work out what. His home page is: http://users.neca.com/bfstew/

These things are sent to try us - regards, Stewie.

Hey Stewie,

Thanks for the Blue Clicky things. I was away for awhile and just remembered to check this thread. Blues World looks great, I haven't had a chance to delve into it, but I will.

Thanks again,

Steve
