Our rythm don't change, they don't change
The blues don't change, they don't change
I wanna tell you now
Give me a guitar and piano man
And our songs bound to let me do my thing
You see I've been around from town to town
And I know the blues don't change
(The blues don't change, they don't change)
You've heard right, and you've heard wrong
But they say that all a long time ago
I've been playing the blues since 1954, and I know they don't change
(The blues don't change, they don't change)
Oh, clever music and clever songs
You know, the other day, and tomorrow they're gone
The blues just keep it hangin' on and on
'Cause the blues don't change
(The blues don't change) I say they don't change
(they don't change)
My home is where I lay my hat
Oh, but some day mama, you know I'll be comin' back
But right now I hear 'em callin' my name
'Cause the blues don't change
(the blues don't change) they really don't change
One night stands and cigarettes
I'll play for seperate clubs to ****
I'll play them all ya'll
And I know, I know the blues don't change
(The blues don't change, they don't change) I know they don't change
