King Of The Blues

(álbum: Now - 2004)

He's had his share of women
Had his share of booze
Got diamonds on his fingers
Wears alligator shoes

Seen the top and he's seen the bottom
From both sides of the track
Been up and down and broke
Still got the scars across his back

He don't come from Memphis
But he's paid his dues
Ain't no doubt about it
He's the undisputed King of the blues

It was a hot night in Chicago
Been too long on the road
A one night stand with a pickup band
In a club called Kokomo

When a record man
With a store bought tan
And a sharp Armani suit
Said 'Hello boys I like your noise and
I sure like the way you move'

You don't come from Memphis
But you've paid his dues
Ain't no doubt about it
You're the undisputed King of the blues

He's got a Cadillac, an eight grand axe
He's on a million dollar roll
Records in with a bullet
Looks like he's the man to know

Now the crowds are getting bigger
Hotels the best in town
The IRS can kiss his ass
They ain't never gonna track him down

He don't come from Memphis
But he's paid his dues
Ain't no doubt about it
He's the undisputed King of the blues

He don't come from Memphis
But he's paid his dues
Ain't no doubt about it
He's the undisputed King of the blues
