(Intro Verse)
A lonely day in locked town
No booze, no pub, no car
Home alone, and just searching around
He came across his old steel guitar
And that was when he first knew
He was the man who'd lost the Blues!
(1st Chorous)
Muddy Waters ain't a rolling stone
Lemon Jefferson's got no black snake moan!
Bobby Johnson ain't in my kitchen!
Howling Wolf's got no smoke stack lightnin'
(1st Verse)
Well, he tuned up his old steel guitar
Sat down and strummed a 12 blues bar
But without the riffs he used to use
He was still the man who'd lost the Blues!
(2nd Chorous)
Willie Dixon ain't a seventh son!
BB King's thrill ain't gone!
Elmore James ain't gunna dust my broom
Jonny Lee's got no boom, boom, boom!
(2nd Verse)
Into the night he played
Cursing every mistake he made
But then as a mystery reveals its clues
He slowly began to recall the blues
(3rd Chorous)
Pete's gettin back with the black majic woman!
And Jimi can hear his train a comin!
Stevie's on leaving his Texas flood!
And Chuck's started rockin Johnny B Goode!
(Closing Verse)
...And in the mornin as the sun shone through
He was no more the man who'd lost the Blues!
Now that's the story, the best I ever knew
All about the man who once lost the Blues!
(Play out reworded chorous verses one, two, or all, optional as chosen)
Cos...
Muddy Waters is a rolling stone
Lemon Jefferson's shoutin' black snake moan!
Bobby Johnson sittin' in my kitchen!
Howling Wolf's stokin' smoke stack lightnin'
And...
Willie Dixon is a seventh son!
BB King's thrill has gone!
Elmore James is gunna dust my broom
Jonny Lee's got his boom, boom, boom!
And...
Pete's back with the black majic woman!
And Jimi can hear his train a comin!
Stevie's left his Texas flood!
And Chuck's rockin out Johnny B Goode!
