Текст песни 3. The Blues Band — I’mThe Blues

I was there when in a man firs bluest home
Down in New Orleans all that jazz was born
4 blocks away as clear as a bell
I gave ‘em madness sayin’ straight from hell

RIFRN: I am the Blues, I am the Blues
I make an old man cry, make a young girl sigh
I am the Blues…

I was down near Clarksdale the night of the wreck
We turned around – man! She was a mess
Stood in the shadows as they turned her away
For me it was just another workin’ day

RIFRN: I am the Blues, I am the Blues
I make an old man cry, make a young girl sigh
I am the Blues…

At the cross of 49 & 61
I’ve been a witness as the deal was done
Now that young man new he couldn’t fail
All his trouble was a hound on his tail

RIFRN: I am the Blues, I am the Blues
I make an old man cry, make a young girl sigh
I am the Blues…

Now back in Memphis
The white boy there was hot
Stirred it up in the mess of blues in that meltin’ pot
Makin’ fortune, blowin’ the nation fuse
I saw big boys never got his dues!

RIFRN: I am the Blues, I am the Blues
I make an old man cry, make a young girl sigh
I am the Blues…

Now, U better stay shocked ‘cause I’m steal around
Whenever passion sorry’s found
Jimmy joined Stevie Ray
Who knows what they might be doin’ today

RIFRN: I am the Blues, I am the Blues
I make an old man cry, make a young girl sigh
I am the Blues…
