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......
