King of the Blues
Chorus
He was born in Mississippi in 1924
He was born in Mississippi in 1924
After his hole with on matter
You hear the prayer you choose
Well you knew the time was coming
Then he’ll be king of the blues
Lost his heart to a woman
Lucy was her name
Lost his heart to a woman
Lucy was her name
When he hears those things so sweet back
He knows who just can blues
With holes of wheels and his arms in nose
That here’s the king of the blues
There’s a honkie with a cross-cut saw
Born under the bay zahle
But it’s bigger messin’ down in Bongor there
He almost lost his mind
Chorus
But he knew no guest out
That pleased him amused
He’s got losin’ by his side
His waitin’ hell I know
There’s no meaning no promise
Like where you can in Dallas
Would you too call and what you like
I’ll call him king of the blues
