Asked my mama for 15 cents, to see the elephant jump the fence.

Arcam,

A fine choice, but - I say - if you're going with Peter Green, you pretty much have to go for a sexual lyric like Long Grey Mare ("she won't let me ride her any more") or Rattlesnake Shake:

"Ain't but one thing a good man can do....the rattlesnake shake.....jerk away the blues.  Now jerk it."
Whiskey woman don't you know that you are driving me insane.
The liquor you give stems your will to live and gets right to my brain...
Judas Priest
"Victim of Changes"
From " Sad Wings of Destiny"
martykl, Awesome lyrics!
There is a multitude to choose from with Peter Green!
"Black Magic Woman", tThe Green Manalishi and on and on...
You start pounding on her door and you say, "Open up the door B+×÷h. This is Wooba Gooba with the green teeth.  

Peter Wolf, The J. Geils Band.
