Blues 101

You say you're going down The silence of a hard break You need the kind of sounds My old guitar makes Girl, if you want me to, I got blues for you I'll bet your heart is broken 'Still torn and tender You need some comfort spoken By my old vintage Fender It's been tried and true I got blues for you We've all had our share of scars It's nothing new to me But you should know my old guitar Has tons of sympathy You cry, you're slowly going...... Going out of your mind Maybe if I throw in One of BB King's lines "The Thrill Is Gone", boo-hoo But I got blues for you Nothing's bad as lonesome But my guitar is your friend A little "Robert Johnson" Might put you on the mend When sad won't go away It hurts too much to mention A rocking "Stevie Ray" Might shuffle your attention Don't sit there and stew I got blues for you Protected by copyright All rights reserved

I'm jammin... I'm jammin... We're jammin' Sing it, I want to jam it with you We're jammin', we're jammin' And I hope you like jammin' too Ain't no rules, ain't no vow You can do it anyhow 'Cause I and I will see you through But every day we pay the price Come a little sacrifice Jammin' till the jam is through bob Marley
