Ragtime Blue Guitar

Steve Young

© Golden Chain Music, BMI

I play the ragtime blue guitar I play it near and far
I play on the streets all around I travel on the old greyhound
Ah the guitar she's my old friend she knows just where I been
She understand how I feel she knows the blues is real

Ah if you don't like what I play friend you ain't gotta pay
You got no money that's okay I ain't gettin' rich no way
Yeah but I play my blues alright I play out every night
If you want me to I play these blues for you
[ instrumental ]
Yes I play the ragtime blue guitar I have faced the wind and rain
There's a lotta things I been through that's why I can sing these blues
Whoa now I hear they passed a law against my kind street singer who is blind
But your ordinance I refuse I got right to sing these blues
Your ordinance I refuse I got right to sing these blues
