Well once upon a time
Lived a handsome young man
He had one foot in the guitar
And two bits in his hand
Well no one wants to suffer
Left to be dyin' alone
He got out of his seat
Up on his feet
Headed for points unknown
He's got blues power
I know he's got blues power
Each and every day
You got blues power
I know it's blues power
And it ain't gonna go away
There was crap games on the sidewalk
A wino with no shoes
A blind man sellin' apples
And a junkie payin' dues
There was beer cans on the pavement
And dirt fallin' from the sky
Well right there on the corner
I watched a young man die
He's got blues power
You know he's got blues power
Each and every day
He's got blues power
You know you got blues power
And it ain't gonna go away
Yeah, got one eye in the middle
And one eye on the ground
Feet and my hands is restless
Nothin' to be found
Now when you hear the story
There's one thing you should know
Blues ain't gonna get ya
Unless you are finally told...
You got blues power
I know you've got blues power
Each and every day
You got blues power
I know you blues power
When it ain't gonna go away
