Texas Flood

Stevie Ray Vaughan Texas Flood Lyrics
1.Love Struck Baby

Well i'm love struck baby i must confess
Life without you darlin' is a solid mess
Thinkin' 'bout you baby give me such a thrill
I gotta have you baby....can't get my fill
I love ya baby an' i know just what to do

I still remember....and let it be said
The way you make me feel it take a fool to forget
I swore a ton of bricks had hit me in the head
And what you do little baby....i ain't over yet

Every time i see ya make me feel so fine
My heart beatin' crazy....my blood runnin' wild
Your lovin' makes me feel like a mighty mighty man
Love me baby ain't i your man

I'm a love struck baby
Yeah i'm a love struck baby
You got me love struck baby
And i know just what to do

Sparks start flyin' every time we meet
Let me tell you baby you knock me off my feet
Your kisses trip me up and they're just doggone sweet
Don't you know baby you can't be beat

I'm a love struck baby
Yeah i'm a love struck baby
You got me love struck baby
And i know just what to do


2.Pride And Joy

Well you've heard about love givin' sight to the blind
My baby's lovin' cause the sun to shine
She's my sweet little thang....she's my pride and joy
She's my sweet little baby....i'm her little lover boy

Yeah i love my baby....heart and soul
Love like ours won't never grow old
She's my sweet little thang....she's my pride and joy
She's my sweet little baby....i'm her little lover boy

Yeah i love my lady....she's long and lean
You mess with her....you'll see a man get mean
She's my sweet little thang....she's my pride and joy
She's my sweet little baby....i'm her little lover boy

Well i love my baby....like the finest wine
Stick with her until the end of time
She's my sweet little thang....she's my pride and joy
She's my sweet little baby....i'm her little lover boy

Yeah i love my baby....heart and soul
Love like ours won't never grow old
She's my sweet little thang....she's my pride and joy
She's my sweet little baby....i'm her little lover boy


3.Texas Flood

Well there's floodin' down in texas....all of the telephone

4.Tell Me

Well now tell me....what in the world can be wrong
I said tell me....what in the world can be wrong
Woke up this mornin'....trouble knockin' at my door

I wonder what's the trouble....great big troubles at my door
I wonder what's the trouble....great big troubles at my door
Yes i'm goin' up to macon....don't wanna be here no more

I'd better forget it...let this trouble pass
I'd better forget it...let this trouble pass
Yes i wonder sometime....how long my trouble gonna last

I said goodbye, goodbye baby got to go
I said goodbye, goodbye baby got to go
I ain't hangin' 'round here....worrying where there's trouble no
more

Trouble is knockin'....trouble is knockin'
Trouble is knockin'....trouble is knockin'
Trouble is knockin'....can't be where it's at no more

7.Mary Had A Little Lamb

Mary had a little lamb
It's fleece was white as snow, yeah
Everywhere the child went
The little lamb was sure to go, yeah
He followed her to school one day
And broke the teachers rule
What a time did they have
That day at school

Tisket! tasket! baby
A green and yellow basket
Sent a letter to my baby
On my way i past it


8.Dirty Pool

True love is gone....i's been played for a fool
True love is gone....i's been played for a fool
I'm turnin' the tables on you
You've been playin' dirty pool

You said you'd call the shots darlin'....all your friends
thought that was cool...so cool baby
You said you'd call the shots darlin'....all your friends
thought that was so cool
Yeah when you shot at the eight-ball baby....i knew you were
playin' dirty pool

They say that life....life is a game of give and take
They say that life....life is a game of give and take
I'm tellin' you one thing right now little baby
I won't be the one to pay for your mistake


9.I'm Cryin'

Well now sittin' here so lonely....feelin' oh so blue
My baby's tryin' to mistreat me and i don't know what to do
So i'm cryin'....why do i have to feel this way
If i can't love my baby....i can't live another day

Yeah i've loved her for such a long time...to end it all this
way
Sittin' here so lonely....tears be fallin' just like rain
So i'm cryin'....why do i have to feel this way
If i can't love my baby....i can't live another day

Yeah you know i love you baby...i'll do anything for you
But when we start to fightin'....i just get these same old blues
So i'm cryin'....why do i have to feel this way
If i can't love my baby....i can't live another day

Yeah now when i first met you baby....at a dance and we did fine
Now we're together and it's a total waste of time
So i'm cryin'....why do i have to feel this way
If i can't love you baby....i can't live another day

Well i guess it's just my own fault....the truth i cannot hide
But if i ever get you back dear....i'll stay right by your side
I won't be cryin'....i'll stay happy that a way
I'll be lovin' my little baby....every night and every day

Hey hey hey hey....alley's the roughest place i've ever been
All the people down there....livin' for their whisky, wine, and

And took me right back...to the pen
