Find a chair, perhaps a recliner
and tune out life’s buzz saw
listening to something finer
then all the girls in the world
or the funniest one-liners....Yeah
True blues are refiners
of all of your pain
daily wracking your brain
one must never abstain
even if you love country
hard rock or pop
dem Blues will park your ass
and all your funky
moods with stop
they soothe with a wail
they bless to the max
steel strings that will bind you
as you groove to the sax
they will make your job easy
no matter what is your task
no matter what is your task
Close your eyes as you sit there
and blues ease all cares
take a trip to a nightclub
in your mind if you dare
to open up your soul
to the sweet vibes that ooze
from the top of your head
to your toe tapping shoes
Watch the masters perform
notes they wrote to reform
all the sorrows that borrow
on your hopes for tomorrow ...yeah
They say music can soothe
the most savage of beasts
and beasts don’t have a chance
when true blues are released
They slip into your ears
and fill your mind with Joy
doing exactly the opposite
of what life’s blues employ.
and if you don’t believe me
just keep listening too
these blues "Ingvar’s" playing
his skills will convert you
Grab a hold of your lady
dance her across the floor
she will love the attention
and you might just get more
of her most lovely ways.......
to disperse one large part
of your blues known as lonely
as your soul shares the bliss
of your sweet one and only
in a lovely, lovely Kiss!!
Then feed blues
into your headphones
and don’t you ever leave home
without their cure in your ears
cause they can help you atone
for the drudge of the day
and the dues you must pay
let them carry you away
and then you’ll beg them stay.
You see true blues
aren’t bad news
or long sermons in pews
they are written to lift up
the spirit in you
They preach in the cathedral
of your thick cranium
where life’s blues
haunt the shadows
true blues they
get rid of them.
So just try it awhile
and if blues don’t
make you happy
you can send my ass packing
you can tell me I’m crappy...
But your sweet satisfaction
from blues I guarantee
or you can get your memory back
Just the way it used to be
Blues free....
And I’m quite sure you’ll agree
after hearing these blues........
that you’ll all be thanking me
for getting just what you need
when life’s blues make you bleed!
when life’s blues make you bleed!
