Story behind the song
This actually happened recently in a juke joint in Mississippi. The player didn't know the song, but it turned out all right.
Lyrics
Mr Song Man (Don Hooper, words and music © 2004) Verse 1: Mr song man, song man, play my favorite tune Song man, song man, spank that guitar son Or I will shoot you, where you’re sitting that’s for sho I will shoot you, where your peas and carrots grow Verse 2: Hey Mr song man, song man, how do you do? I been sitting on this barstool, waitin’ all night for you I been waitin’, for my blues to go away So pick up that old six-string, and let me hear you play Verse 3: Mr bad man, bad man, I don’t know that tune I got 6 hungry children and got to be at work by noon So please have mercy, on my poor disgusted soul I’m playin’ the best I can, like I never did befo’ Verse 4: (instrumental) Verse 5: Mr song man, song man, That was exactly right It’s just like I remember, you can play that one all night Or I will shoot you, where you’re sitting that’s for sho I will shoot you, where your peas and carrots grow
