bad company - rhythm machine lyrics

i'm a rhythm machine; you know what i mean,
i'm a rhythm machine; you know what i mean

i got time, running through my
head in bed,
instead of sleep, how it looks instead,
i'm a rhythm machine; you know what i mean,

i'm a music man; i play the blues whenever i can,
i'm a music man; i play the blues whenever i can,
i get a flat backbeat, instead of food when i eat,
the ticking of a clock gets me out of my seat
i'm a music man; i play the blues whenever i can.

i'm her cross cut saw before i
was four
smoked-staked lightning had me crawling across the floor
the beach ball didn't get me but that son-in-law did
i'm been keeping time ever since i was a kid

i'm a music machine, don't you know what i mean,
i'm rhythm machine; he knows what i mean, oh.

yeah, yeah.

i'm a rhythm machine; i'm a rhythm machine,
i'm a rhythm machine, don't you know what i mean
i'm a music man, yeah,
i'm gonna play the blues whenever i can,
hey, play the blues then,
oh, yeah, yeah, play it for kings and queens,
yeah, yeah, i'm a music man,
i'm a rhythm machine......
