You have a great place in history- this album is as good as any electric blues album I've heard, and I've heard a ton. This is the first recorded work of Buddy Guy where the REAL Buddy Guy- not some watered down version- came out. A huge influence on me, along with Right Place Wrong Time by Otis Rush, and Showdown by Albert Collins, Robert Cray, and Johnny Copeland, ever since I was 15. Many, many thanks to you and your dad!!!!!
I used to see Buddy come to Austin and play at Antones for a week with the house band. He always knew he could have fun and have a band that was second to none in the world
Just watched "The Blues Chase The Blues Away" and John Mayer talked about this song. Defenitely the best of Buddy Guy. Buddy said that chess records wanted him to be more contained with his playing. But come on how on earth would you contain that soul and that power? It's impossible.
LyRicS I think I smell a rat in my house, baby I believe he got just two legs. Aw, I smell a rat, I smell a rat in my house, honey, I think you walkin' 'round too late You know I need a rat in my house like this now, just like I need a hole in my head You cry baby you afraid at night, you say you can't stay home all alone Oh you said you afraid, afraid to stay home at night, you say you didn't want to be home alone Oh, but I can smell a rat in the time I get back, and all, and all you do is gonna make me moan You got my backdoor wide open, baby you say you're supposed to be afraid You got my backdoor wide open, and you tell me you're supposed to be afraid You know the last time I slept with it opened, you know 'was so cold I almost lost my head Sometime I think you're foolin' me baby, and I do believe it's just drivin' me around Sometime I think you're foolin' me baby, honey I think you're just drivin' me around Why don't you leave me alone woman, you know I think there's another women I can go I can be found I think that you have it to explain. honey I'm not that hard to understand Did you ever try to sit down and explain, I am not that hard to understand You will be sleeping with the backdoor open, baby or with another man You're so good, I don't believe I wanna leave you alone Oh you're so sweet to me, I don't believe, I can leave you alone Stayin', and peepin' like you got a woman, and try to make me, all happy Writer(s): Buddy Guy

Spot on...The Real Buddy Guy
@@rickdanko9822 very similar to my musical beginnings, well said....he’s a monster on this album, got too let loose for the 1st time,his way !
Might be my favorite Buddy Guy album.
This is The Shit. A blues recording I always have to hear again, and again, and again.

Greatest blues guitar intro of all time !!
Best blues album EVER.
One of the greatest electric Blues ever recorded!
I heard this song for the first time 37 yrs ago and I knew Buddy was gonna be with me for the rest of my life..!!
In the top ten of blues songs for me
The solos on this tune are essential Buddy Guy. Talk about guts!
Total master of the instrument!
I bought this album when it first came out on Alligator Records & was blown away & it still does! Some of Buddy's greatest recordings.
every bit of anger at that cheatin woman coming through those strings! Dam!
Real shit
Originally thought this was gonna be the same as the White Stripes "I Think I smell a Rat", walked away having heard another awesome song!
ME GUSTA DEMASIADO....
Buddyy Guy!!! at his best, $ well hes had alot of dam best! Peace, DaKwala
Smokin'!!!!

I think I smell a rat in my house, baby I believe he got just two legs.
Aw, I smell a rat, I smell a rat in my house, honey, I think you walkin' 'round too late
You know I need a rat in my house like this now, just like I need a hole in my head
You cry baby you afraid at night, you say you can't stay home all alone
Oh you said you afraid, afraid to stay home at night, you say you didn't want to be home alone
Oh, but I can smell a rat in the time I get back, and all, and all you do is gonna make me moan
You got my backdoor wide open, baby you say you're supposed to be afraid
You got my backdoor wide open, and you tell me you're supposed to be afraid
You know the last time I slept with it opened, you know 'was so cold I almost lost my head
Sometime I think you're foolin' me baby, and I do believe it's just drivin' me around
Sometime I think you're foolin' me baby, honey I think you're just drivin' me around
Why don't you leave me alone woman, you know I think there's another women I can go
I can be found
I think that you have it to explain. honey I'm not that hard to understand
Did you ever try to sit down and explain, I am not that hard to understand
You will be sleeping with the backdoor open, baby or with another man
You're so good, I don't believe I wanna leave you alone
Oh you're so sweet to me, I don't believe, I can leave you alone
Stayin', and peepin' like you got a woman, and try to make me, all happy
Writer(s): Buddy Guy
Dude, the lyric is "I believe he got just two legs", not "too late". Come on. The rat is her back door man.
@@classicmovies7211 I stand corrected..not sure where i got the lyrics?
Bumping in 2020💯
Take your time, Godbrother Buddy!
GOTDAMN ❤
Beast of the blues
Absolute killer electric blues guitar playing. The intro is as good as any of Hendrix's blues playing.
Sorry, it's me, I was born in the year of the rat, so I can never get that stank off me
Buddy is god.
