I could sing the blues any way I choose, if I wanted

I could turn you around, I could bring you down, if I wanted


But it's not my constitution, it's not my way of life

You know, I'm just a lover for my wife


I could join a race, I could paint my face, if I wanted

I could be a queen, but it's not my scene 'cause I've tried it


And it's not my constitution, it's not my way of life

You know, I'm just a lover for my wife

Hey, yea


[wah-wah guitar solo (Pete Ham)]
