      F                  Dm7
Well, lace up your boots then we'll walk on down,
                 F
to a knocked out shack on the edge of town.
                       Ab
There's an eight piece combo that just won't quit,
                      F                Dm7
keep walkin' 'til you see a blue light lit.
              C                   Bb
Fall in there and you'll dig some sights at the house,
    Eb            F
the house of blue lights.

#2.
F       Ab         F            B
There's fryers and broilers and Detroit barbeque ribs.
A                    Bb
But the trick of the trade is when they serve you all 
      Dm7
those fine eight beats.
                         C
You'll want to spend the rest of your nights..down at 
    F
the house, the house of blue lights.
