Lyrics:
They say the Axman's comingIn a long, black carThey said the Axman's comingHe plays a mean guitarWell, he slipped across the borderWith a hatchet in his handThey said who's that stranger?The one they call the AxmanYou got Duane and Stevie RayAll brothers of the bladeJimi James and RJAll brothers of the bladeNow when he goes from town to townHe picks 'em up and lays 'em downPeople come from miles aroundJust to dig that crazy soundI heard a guitar wailingUntil the break of dawnYou know the Axman was hereOh, but now he's goneYou got T Bone and Link WrayAll brothers of the bladeThen there's Django and Elmore JamesAll brothers of the bladeNow when he goes from town to townHe picks 'em up and lays 'em downPeople come from miles aroundJust to dig that crazy soundPlay so low, so sweetBring a tear to your eyeChills run down to your feetMake a grown man cryOne-eyed jacks, King with the axeLike Albert or FreddyOne-eyed jacks, King with the axeAnd of course BB was born readyNow when he goes from town to townHe picks 'em up and lays 'em downPeople comin' from miles aroundJust to dig that crazy sound
