Buddy Guy - The Garbage Man Blues Lyrics






Early this morning
I saw my baby makin' love to the garbage man
Early this morning
Saw my baby makin' love to the garbage man
The little girl know she was wrong
The little girl know I was leavin' her

The little girl know she was wrong
Oh yeah, oh yeah, the little girl know I could catch a plain
Little girl know she was wrong
Ohh, the little girl know I could catch a plain
But ohhh early this morning
Saw my baby making love to the garbage man

You know what, I ain't go up with that shit

Hey Buddy, will you play me some blues

You know I checked out that insurance man
And I checked out that mail man
But you know all the time, baby it was that old, old garbage man
Early this morning
uhh saw my baby making love to the garbage man
The little girl know she was wrong
Hmmm, everything gonna be alright yeah
Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah
You know four o'clock this morning
I saw my baby making love to the garbage man

    In New York we called them the Garbage Man. but in Philadelphia they call them the Trash Man. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IRtTMpDLk5c.

    Buddy um dos meus Bluesman favorito!! Varginha, MG - Brasil

  8. E.... M....

    I have heard this played a few times in Chicago by both Buddy and Phil Guy.
    Also heard Phil Guy perform this on his own in July 1988 at the Center Street Blues Revue in Mishawaka, Indiana.
    He put on quite a show in his pinstriped outfit which looked like a nice pair of pajamas.

  9. B.... M....

    somebody in wrong key for a little bit ?

    B.... M....

    Actually it sounds right on !

    B.... M....

    I think what you heard was a minor scale playing along with a major scale for that “little bit”.

  10. i.... v....

    This is THE music!

  11. M.... ....

    One of my alltime favorites from Buddy and his brother. Put back many a brewski in college during the mid-80s while listening to this.

  12. s.... ....

    this might make me crack open my Johnny Walker Black nice thank you for the post

    s.... ....

    Thanks, I actually wrote this song in 1964.... by the Uptowners, The Snowmen, Muddy Waters, Rory Gallagher and lots of others. Some people have to steal other people's intellectual property and take credit for it. Buddy got the idea from Muddy Waters version and just ripped it off. I hate that he did that because I've always really liked Buddy's playing. But that's the music business for you.

    s.... ....

    +Will Hammond mhmm sure, you wrote this right after i wrote damn right i got the blues.


    not hard to write blues lyrics. hard to play blues like buddy though
