Blue Coat Man - Eddie Boyd & His Blues Band

Blue Coat Man

Eddie Boyd & His Blues Band

(Eddie Boyd, J.O.B. 1007)

Well, the house was rocking and we was having fun
Yeah, the house was rocking and we was having fun
Till that blue coat man walked in with that big gun
You know I got scared, and my baby she broke and run
Yes, I got scared, and my baby she broke and run
She knocked over that whiskey jug, don't you know I didn't get done

They taken us to jail, but they let my baby go free
They taken us to jail, but they let my baby go free
'Cause I took the blame and the gal payed the fine for me

Now me and my baby we're gonna take a long long ride
Now me and my baby we're gonna take a long long ride
She got me out of that jail, and don't you know that I'm satisfied

Also performed by Diz Watson & The Doormen, 1981
