Play Something Sweet Lyrics - Take Me To The River 1978-1982 - Levon Helm

Well, I tried to run my game 

She said "Man, that's the same old thing I've heard before" 

And I'm too tired to go for your show 

(again and again) 

And she started to explain 

She said "Man, I ain't sayin' 

what you're playin' just can't make it 

But I can't take it anymore" 

Play somethin' sweet, play somethin' mellow 

Play somethin' I can sink my teeth in like Jello 

Play something I can understand 

Play me some Brickyard Blues 

Play somethin' sweet and make it funky 

Just let me lay back and grin like a monkey 

Play something I can understand 

Play me some Brickyard Blues 

Well, I started to sweat 

She said "Don't get upset, 

'cause you just might break a string and that won't 

do a thing for your show" 

So I said to myself 

I said, "Self, do you see what is sailin' through my soul?" 

And I gotta have some more, don't ya know 

Play somethin' sweet, play somethin' mello 

Play somethin' I can sink my teeth in like Jello 

Play something I can understand 

Play me some Brickyard Blues 

Play somethin' sweet and make it funky 

Just let me lay back and grin like a monkey 

Play something I can understand 

Play me some Brickyard Blues 

It's enough to make it light the dark 

It's enough to make a bite just a bark 

It's enough to make a body move around 

It's enough to make a rabbit hug a dog 

Play somethin' sweet 

Well, I tried to run my game 

She said, "Man, that's the same old thing I've heard before 

And I'm too tired to go for your show" 

(again and again) 

And she started to explain 

She said, "Man, I ain't sayin' 

what you're playin' just can't make it, but I 

just can't take it 

any more" 

Play somethin' sweet, play somethin' mello 

Play somethin' I can sink my teeth in like Jello 

Play something I can understand 

Play me some Brickyard Blues 

Play somethin' sweet and make it funky 

Just let me lay back and grin like a monkey 

Play something I can understand 

Play me some Brickyard Blues 

Play somethin' sweet, play somethin' mello 

Play somethin' I can sink my teeth in like Jello 

Play something I can understand 

Play me some Brickyard Blues 

Play somethin' sweet and make it funky 

Just let me lay back and grin like a monkey 

Play something I can understand 

Play me some Brickyard Blues
