DUSTY GROOVE

Daddy drove a low cut ’68
I was glued to the radio dial
Could hear us coming from a mile away
Shotgun ridin’ in style
Mama was gone, we didn’t have a lot
But a hand me down record machine
I don’t know how, they didn’t know my name
But they were singing straight to me

I saw the light and I found the truth
In a rusty needle and a dusty groove

In ’74 there was a bedroom door
‘Bout rattlin’ off the hinge
Day and night, night and day 
I was learning to slide and bend
Next thing you know, I’m out on the road
In a rock and roll traveling band
Paid my dues, preaching the blues, working that mojo hand

I saw the light and I found the truth
In a rusty needle and a dusty groove

Goin’ round and round all day
I  spin all my time away

S O L O

Sure seems strange how times have changed since I heard that lonesome sound
Play it back to stay on track, drop that needle down
I ain’t holy but it’s my church and lord it’s electrified
In the offering plate thirty three and a third and even a 45

I saw the light and I found the truth
In a rusty needle and a dusty groove

I found religion and I got the blues
In a rusty needle and a dusty groove
