Language Of The Blues - Blues For Amy
You're doing words and music
Poetry's your game
You're dreaming of small fortunes
And heavy loads of fame
When artistry provides the cash for paying off your dues
You bring a brand new meaning to the language of the blues
Your words are full of wisdom
Your songs are full of soul
They're taking off like hotcakes
In the name of rock 'n' roll
When paradise is half as nice as heartache avenue
You bring a brand new meaning to the language of the blues
The blues tells us the story
The most embarrassing to date
Of slavery and injustice
As well as love and faith
It isn't just the music
Food for humankind
The blues is life itself
It's an attitude of mind
With Bessie, Billie, Janis
You know what life's about
And that nobody loves you
When you're down and out
When freedom's just another word for nothing left to loose
you bring a brand new meaning to the language of the blues
Poetry's your game
You're dreaming of small fortunes
And heavy loads of fame
When artistry provides the cash for paying off your dues
You bring a brand new meaning to the language of the blues
Your words are full of wisdom
Your songs are full of soul
They're taking off like hotcakes
In the name of rock 'n' roll
When paradise is half as nice as heartache avenue
You bring a brand new meaning to the language of the blues
The blues tells us the story
The most embarrassing to date
Of slavery and injustice
As well as love and faith
It isn't just the music
Food for humankind
The blues is life itself
It's an attitude of mind
With Bessie, Billie, Janis
You know what life's about
And that nobody loves you
When you're down and out
When freedom's just another word for nothing left to loose
you bring a brand new meaning to the language of the blues
