The Blues
I am black to the roots
I am black to the roots
I play the blues, I play the blues
Like the fathers, fathers before me
No, no, no, no
Talking about the blues, the blues, the blues
From Robert Johnson to Son House
From Muddy Waters to Howlin' Wolf
From John Lee Hooker to Ali Farka Touré
I play the blues, I play the blues
I play this music, this music
For all of you, you, you and you
Soulful proud people
Talking about the culture
Of my brothers and sisters
Well, well, well, well, well, well
The blues is black
They say, "The blues is the cry of the black soul"
"The blues tells stories of pain and suffering"
"The blues is the root, the blues is the truth"
I am black to the roots
I play the blues, I play the blues
Like the fathers, fathers before me
No, no, no, no
Talking about the blues, the blues, the blues
From Robert Johnson to Son House
From Muddy Waters to Howlin' Wolf
From John Lee Hooker to Ali Farka Touré
I play the blues, I play the blues
I play this music, this music
For all of you, you, you and you
Soulful proud people
Talking about the culture
Of my brothers and sisters
Well, well, well, well, well, well
The blues is black
They say, "The blues is the cry of the black soul"
"The blues tells stories of pain and suffering"
"The blues is the root, the blues is the truth"
