RL Burnside Lyrics by Cedric Burnside

2 Man Wrecking Crew

2008

[Verse 1]
From six to eighteen
I lived with you
Almost everything that I know
I learned from you
I was a little hardhead
I made a lot of people mad
But you stayed on me
Got me on the right path
And boy I'm glad
[Chorus]
RL Burnside
RL Burnside, yeah
[Verse 2]
Got me a new drum set
When I was sixteen years old
Two-hundred dollars short
Big Daddy said
"Here boy, here ya go"
Thought I was gonna leave
Without a drum set that day
But Big Daddy did
What he always did
And he saved the day
[Chorus]
RL Burnside
RL Burnside, yeah
RL Burnside!
RL; Burnside, yeah
[Instrumental]
[Verse 3]
A lot of y'all know him as RL Burnside
But I know him as Big Daddy
So I wrotе this song in memory of RL Burnside
Bettеr known as Big Daddy
May he rest in peace
Always and forever
[Chorus]
RL Burnside
RL Burnside, yeah
RL Burnside!
RL Burnside, yeah
