SRV Speaks Songtext
von Stevie Ray Vaughan and Double Trouble

Let′s talk a bit about Texas R&B and blues. Maybe to kinda help
Listeners a little bit we should illustrate that Texas shuffle
You know that's sort of the backbone of the music. And let
People kind of get a fix on that and then we can talk about
Texas music as you experienced it when you were getting older


One of my favorites has always been Freddie King, I mean "Hideaway
" Things like that. Albert Collins, "Don′t Lose Your Cool." Yeah
You know people, I don't know if a lot of people realize today that
A lot of music that came out years gone by, I don't know that it′s
So much this way now but it seems to me that music used to be more
Based on common everyday occurrences like a train sound going
Down the track, someone walking down the street, things like that
A horse walking, you know. That′s where these rhythms came from
