Intro:
 
E                                   A                E 
I cut my teeth on Gumbo rock, Benny Spellman and Dr. John 
Sweet Erma Thomas and Frogman Henry 
        F#                      B 
Used to boogie woogie all night long 
A 
Though I love rock n' roll the acoustic guitar 
        E 
Was the only way I had of becomin' a star 
    F# 
I'm doin' really nice and travellin' around 
         B                                   A    B 
But they won't play my record in my old home town 

E            A 
But if I had saxophones 
                                         E 
Yeah, big baritone cleanin' up the muddy breaks 
         A 
If I had saxophones 
                                                         B A 
I could get some recognition from that Mobile, Alabama D J 

E 
Livin' by the ocean, sometimes I get the notion 
   A                  E 
To take my Janey down town 
We hang out in a funky little bar 
     F#m                    B 
They call it the 'Shipwreck Lounge' 
        A 
Well we get kind of drunk and we play rock n' roll 
E 
Grabbin' everybody right down in his soul 
F# 
When we get to cookin' somethin's still wrong 
        B                                          A     B 
There's still somethin' missin' from them good ole songs 

    E         A 
But if we had saxophones 
                                   E 
Big baritone cleanin' up the muddy breaks 
          A 
If we had saxophones 
                                                           B     A 
I could make that joint shimmy like a big California earth quake 

     E         A 
Yeah if we had saxophones 
                                         E 
Yeah, big baritone cleanin' up the muddy breaks 
          A 
If we had saxophones 
                                                         B A 
I could get some recognition from that Mobile, Alabama D J
