I woke up this morning, blues all in my soul
I woke up this morning, blues all in my soul
Lord, I ain't got nothing but these blues, they take their toll
I grabbed my old guitar, started picking my way
I grabbed my old guitar, started picking my way
Trying to make some music to make these blues go away
Down
Down in the delta where the sun shines bright
Down in the delta where the river meets the night
I'm singing these blues with all my might
I'm singing these blues with all my might
Late at night, when the world is asleep
I sneak out and into the street
Under the stars I dance and twirl
Feeling the magic of the world
I look up and see the shimmering skies
I look up and see the shimmering skies
Millions of stars light in the mine
Each one tells a story, tale to tale
I'm on the lost end of time
