Lyrics
Songs of Blues Play On the highways
Making waves in Your mind
Making waves in your mind. Taking your soul on a journey to unwind
Stop!
Wait a minute!
Rewind.
The Blues tell you a story.
One that is defined.
Making a tale of sadness
Head along a new road.
Not a cross road
A road of understanding
Where as the blues man sings
A life takes wings.
Harsh tales of love and sacrifice
Being down and out
The oppression
Depression
A lesson.
A lover scorned
A devil's doom warned.
Dangers
Deceptions of the heart.
All brought together by guitars and harps -
And howling wolves.
Maudlin moments of acknowledgement
Making your head nod
To a beat of repetition
And the call and response
Of a spiritual.
Oh baby do you understand?
Do you know where I'm coming from?
Be it a field or a chain gang.
And alleyways of desolated Moonshine.
The blues are here and now
Listen or it don't mean a thing.
Don't take your superstition
With the derision
Of the gloom.
Hear the light and shade.
Appreciate the good things.
Yes!
Just move on.
Take your soul on a journey to unwind.
Respite of the blues
You can be on top of the world when you are feeling blue. Juxtaposed tunes of driving rhythm with lyrics of sad lives.
Yeah
That's the blues
Hearing of lives as messed up as mine.
U- turns
To a time from before
But memories perspiring from every pore.
I'm just a pore boy You see?
Stop!
Wait a minute!
Rewind.
Something is
Making waves in my mind.
Soon I'll have another story -
You'll see.
No matter how hard life can be.
