AC/DC - Crabsody In Blue Lyrics






Well they moved on down
And they crawled around
Walking sideways
Sideway walking
Give me the blues

And you start to scratch
When they start to hatch
Walking sideways
Sideway walking
Give me the blues

But when they start to bite
Then it's time you set alight
For an appointment
Before you start to scream
That's when you apply the cream
Blues ointment

Well the doctor said
"We got to make 'em dead"
Walking sideways
Sideway walking
Give me the blues

And when you start to scream
That's when you apply the cream
Blues ointment
And when they start to itch
You go out and you take a bitch
For an appointment

Well you rub it on
And you rub it in
Stops them walking
Sideway walking
Gives them the blues

Sideway walking
Sideway walking
They got the blues

You give them the blues
They got the blues
You give them the blues

    Well they moved on down
    and they crawled around
    walkin’ sideways,
    sideway walkin’
    Give me the Blues

    And you start to scratch
    when they start to hatch
    walkin’ sideways,
    sideway walkin’
    Give me the Blues

    When they start to bite
    then it’s time you saw the light
    For an appointment
    I know, before you start to scream
    that’s when you apply the cream
    Blues Ointment


    Rub it in

    Well the doctor said
    we got to make ‘em dead
    Walkin’ sideways,
    sideway walkin’
    Give me the Blues

    And when you start to scream
    that’s when you apply the cream
    Blues Ointment
    And when they start to itch,
    you go out and you take the bitch
    For an appointment

    Well you rub it on and you rub it in
    Stops ‘em walkin’ , sideway walkin’
    Give them the Blues

    Sideway walkin’
    Sideway walkin’
    They got the Blues
    Give them the Blues
    They got the Blues
    Give them the Blues

    Listen to Phil Rudd's swinging groove!!!!...
    Sure,there was Howling Wolf,Muddy..Robert Johnson..the Kings..BB,Albert,Freddy etc..
    If this ain't one of the top blues tracks up there with Killing Floor,Crossroads,Mannish Boy..Walking Blues!!(Robert Johnson and Muddy Waters!!)...
    Should be on every blues compilation album!!!👍👍👍
    Always used to hearing the studio noise then them thundering into Hell ain't a bad place to be after this!
    AC-DC,can't imagine a life without their music!!👍😊

    J.... T....

    I still listen to this album on vinyl..on my old Hi-Fi record player..when recorded,..Malcolm's Guitar comes from the right speaker,and Angus out of the left speaker!
    Still get goosebumps after 30+ years of listening!!!

  8. C.... F....

    Why they left this off of the album and replaced it with problem child I'll never know

  9. g.... m....

    Acdc classic .. bluesy ,laid back , in the groove , tongue in cheek with a vintage sound

  10. S.... L....

    ....And Î. M ride on...Love bon💋

    S.... L....

    bon scoot et angus fabuleux

    S.... L....

    @PHILIPPE LEGRAND c'est tout le groupe est "fabuleux"..aussi 😉

  11. t.... 8....

    Fuck Atlantic Records for rejecting this song from being on the American release of Let There Be Rock.

  12. D.... P....

    Dont fuck hookers with out protection make shure shes clean

  13. C.... M....

    Well the u.s. f’d with the order of the AC/DC album release order..and covers..makes it hard to dig there development...and now let there be rock..has prob child instead of this blues rock great...I bought this in 79 in oz..always loved this track and it fit in perfectly with the heavy vibe of..l.t.b.r.

  14. C.... K....

    Wow. Harry Vanda and George Young produced this. If you don't understand, just look up The Marcus Hook Roll band. My song suggestion is Silver Shoes and Strawberry Wine. You're Welcome.

  29. P.... L....

    Don't understand why they took away from the "Let there be rock" album...

    P.... L....

    @Da Squirrel thank you I had no idea that's what that meant. Of course now I get it from listening to the raunchy version ✌️

    P.... L....

    @torchie! I agree about the song big balls except for mentioning crabs at the end they were talkin about a buffet but still I got you 💯

    P.... L....

    I noticed they do that a lot with many songs.

    P.... L....

    @Shadowman4710 no it's just because Sony sold AC/DC out , its just another money spinner marketing strategy for Sony, its for that reason & that simple reason only

    P.... L....

    @CHRIS FOX No ! ...it was a metaphor...so he was talking about it

  30. k.... ....

    Soooooo God damn dirty. I love it 👍

    k.... ....

    If you say so whack job! Lol🎭

  31. m.... ....

    if you can't have a laugh and a good time with this tune....then you're no use to me !!!

    m.... ....

    @PATRIOT 777 I know you can't tell from printed words...but it was meant to be tongue in cheek.

    m.... ....

    Been up 3 days. Sorry didn't read it correctly. Take care.

    m.... ....

    I laughed when I first heard it but seriously that solo goddamn

    m.... ....

    I was laughing the whole time. Omg, this is just one example of many why ac/dc just kicks so much ass!

    m.... ....

    You, friend, I could definitely sit and have a drink or two with. You sound like some lad and definitely could crank up some jams up to 11. Enjoying some good drink.

  32. �.... H....

    A classic,
    Bon is amazing.

  36. O.... ....

    J’avais le vinyl de Let There Be Rock avec ce morceau. C’était le premier album d’AC/DC que j’ai écouté ... il y a longtemps... mais c’est toujours fantastique. Angus 👍👍👍

    O.... ....

    @PHILIPPE LEGRAND Pareil pour moi: c'est ce disque qui m'a fait tomber raide dingue du rock et cette chanson est une de mes préférées...

    O.... ....

    @Isa D j adore acdc j ai vu le concert du stadium paris13 1978

  37. F.... D....

    Scott sings like a TOMCAT! Miau. I like this song.

    F.... D....

    What xdd

    F.... D....

    Like a tomcat in the middle of an orgasm ✌️

  38. N.... G....

    Better than best

  39. N.... B....

    Sir/ madam? I most sincerely salute the *@!?*% outah YOU!.

  40. B.... M....

    Give me the Blues

  41. M.... ....

    So glad they uploaded this. I don't own an original copy of Let There Be Rock with this song on it; I only own the later presses with Problem Child in its place.

    M.... ....

    Here in Australia they are now selling the American albums instead of the originals on CD! I do have some vinyl of their original albums! Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheep, And Let There Be Rock

    M.... ....

    I have all the Aussie versions

    M.... ....

    I bought the LP with this song in Sweden in the early 80's, but I know they later sold the version with "Problem Child" on it. There was a difference between the "ATCO" and the "Atlantic" release versions, I think.
