FIRST YER BLUES

you can label me a fool if you like, but i love to love and not to fight,
the only reason i would ever raise my hand is to lend it if there’s need
if i could save one single soul with a song, be sure, i’m gonna write it,
and i would tell the whole world all the chords, so they can play my song all day and night

i`m not a motormouth, normally i don`t talk loud. i am more a listener
but in special cases and in certain places, i break the rules to get company
there’s little that excites me, little that elates me, just takin‘ life for what it is,
but i resist the pied piper, the newest trends, i try to figure life out my own way,

so that‘s how the story unfolded, dude, it keeps on rollin‘ each and every day
i`ll play some blues till it comes from the heart,
and keep my telling stories – telling you stories that make my day

i still remember in my education they accused me that i`m a thief
but i swear that i never ever stole the tool, i just wanna put it back into the house
i was shaking and i was saying that they put the saddle on the wrong horse
they kinda twinkle at me, and say „ah yeah, you‘re innocent“ but my name was never cleared

and then one day, i really committed a crime, i killed a bird, hanging out on the straight road
she was a silver dove, i drove a silver car now she’s no more, just dead as can be
i felt my gut in my throat, and just felt shaken and shocked, bones cracked below, and she was to fly no more, but i just kept on moving, otherwise another car would hit my silver back

so that‘s how the story unfolded, dude, it keeps on rollin‘ each and every day
i`ll play some blues till it comes from the heart,
and keep my telling stories – telling you stories that make my day
