Long hours on the road and there’s never much dough
Livin’ a dream that some feel is crazy
But it pays the bills and it gives me such a thrill
I wouldn’t have it any other way
I play the blues ‘cause it moves me more than any music ever has (repeat)
A labor of love, the blues is a gift from above
And it makes my world a better place, maybe yours too
The blues gets inside me moves me deep down in my soul
The blues is the groove that grabs ahold and won’t let go
The blues will never grow old
Whether funky rockin’ or straight ahead there ain’t nothin’ like the blues
The blues gets inside me moves me deep down in my soul
The blues is the groove that grabs ahold and won’t let go
The blues will never grow old
Whether funky rockin’ or straight ahead there ain’t nothin’ like the blues
