Play Something Sweet (Brickyard Blues) [Single Version]
Three Dog Night

Well, I tried to run my game, she said
Man, that's the same old thing I've heard before
And I'm too tired to go for your show
(Again and again)

And she started to explain, she said
Man, I ain't sayin' what you're playin'
Just can't make it, but I just can't take it anymore

Play somethin' sweet, play somethin' mellow
Play somethin' I can sink my teeth in like jello
Play something I can understand
Play me some brickyard blues

Play somethin' sweet and make it funky
Just let me lay back and grin like a monkey
Play something I can understand
Play me some brickyard blues

Well, I started to sweat, she said
Don't get upset 'cause you just might break a string
And that won't do a thing for your show”

So I said to myself, I said
Self, do you see what is sailin' through my soul?”
And I gotta have some more, don't ya know

Play somethin' sweet, play somethin' mellow
Play somethin' I can sink my teeth in like jello
Play something I can understand
Play me some brickyard blues

Play somethin' sweet and make it funky
Just let me lay back and grin like a monkey
Play something I can understand
Play me some brickyard blues

It's enough to make it light in the dark
It's enough to make a bite just a bark
It's enough to make a body move around
It's enough to make a rabbit hug a dog
Play somethin' sweet

Well, I tried to run my game, she said
Man, that's the same old thing I've heard before”
And I'm too tired to go for your show
(Again and again)

And she started to explain, she said
Man, I ain't sayin' what you're playin'
Just can't make it but I just can't take it anymore

Play somethin' sweet, play somethin' mellow
Play somethin' I can sink my teeth in like jello
Play something I can understand
Play me some brickyard blues

Play somethin' sweet and make it funky
Just let me lay back and grin like a monkey
Play something I can understand
Play me some brickyard blues

Play somethin' sweet, play somethin' mellow
Play somethin' I can sink my teeth in like jello
Play something I can understand
Play me some brickyard blues

Play somethin' sweet and make it funky
Just let me lay back and grin like a monkey
Play something I can understand
Play me some brickyard blues
