A Richer Shade Of Blue

You see all these people out here on the street, Eddy?
See, they got blues.
I'm talkin' 'bout they cold.
They broke. They hungry.
That's blues.
Well the blues can live in Buckhead too.
I know. It's just a richer shade of blue.
But it's still blue. I can feel it.
He got everything he want.
But everything he need, money don't buy.
Now if that ain't blues, I say listen.
They look at him.
All they see is dollar signs.
Now if that ain't blues, I say listen.
A richer shade of blue.
Okay, okay. You snappin', You snappin'.
A richer shade of blue.
Well I'm just playin' what I feel, and it sure feels good.
A richer shade of blue.
I see I'm a have to bring you down to Bankhead mo' often
Cause you goin' off.
A richer shade of blue.
Or, we could take it to Buckhead
And do it Peach Street Style.
A rich shade of blue.
Everybody falls down sometimes.
Yeahh, just like that.
Oh, but you gotta get back to the place where they know your face.
And they don't mind if you cry sometimes.
They listen.
Cause they cry too.
Oh, that's right right right.
A richer shade of blue.
I guess it ain't where you from, it's where you at.
A richer shade of blue.
It's my birthday, and I'm havin' the best worst time of my life.
A richer shade of blue.
Man, we stand out here on this corner any longer, and you gon' make me rich.
A rich shade of blue.
