"Blues Never Die" lyrics

"Blues Never Die"

Everybody's wondering
Where did the blues come from?
I said, everybody's wondering
Where did the blues come from?
Way back in the lowlands
Right off of my country farm

When you in trouble
Blues is a girl's best friend
When you in trouble
Blues is a girl's best friend
Blues ain't gonna ask where you going
And the blues don't care where you been

We just can't let the blues die
Blues don't mean no harm
People, we can't let the blues die
Blues don't mean no harm
I'm gonna move back in the lowlands
That's where the blues come from

We just can't let the blues die
Blues don't mean no harm
We just can't let the blues die
Blues don't mean no harm
I'm gonna move back in the lowlands
That's where the blues and I come from


Writer(s): Otis Spann
