Messing up the blues take one
A one, two, a one, two, three and
The world keep a turning, yeah, yeah
The world keep a turning, baby, what you do now
World keep a turning, wipe the sweat from my brow
I said the world keep a turning, wipe the sweat from my brow
Without the blues thing, people, where we be now?
'Cause there ain't no Elvis Presley, John Lennon too
Baby, baby, what you gonna do?
The world keep a turning, keep a turning, yeah
Without the blues thing, people, where we be now?
Talkin' 'bout Percy Plant, Mr. Zosa too
Iggy Pop and Kossoff, baby, thank you for your tunes
Thank you
Without the blues thing, people, where we be now, now?
Now, come on, take it
John Lee, Big Joe Turner, Mr. Lewi too
Chuck Berry, Bo Diddley, Jerry Lee, we can't forget you
Mr. Janis, Jimi, Mr. Mojo too
Bob Rock, baby, what we gonna do?
Without the blues thing, people, where we be now?
Let's name some names
Ah, we can't forget Mr. Billy Idol, Billy Idol's crawling king snake
Where did that snake crawl off to?
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Without the blues, without the blues
Without the blues thing, people, where we be now?
Janet, Janet
Shake it, step it, stomp it, ride it, play it
Slide it, slide it, people, slide it to you
Without the blues thing, people, where we be now, now, now, now?
Victor Currie has the awesome sounds, yeah y'all
Little bit more there, boys
Play that
Improvisation jam in E, here we go
Scatman Chris Taylor on the skins
Go, baby, go
Mr. Jamie Stewart on the bass guitar
Yeah, come on, boys, play that thing, it's only got four strings
And the big Mr. Billy Duffy all the way from Manchester
Slide that mother, slide it in
If you can't take this like, baby, fuck you
Sorry if you don't get nothing
Without the blues thing, people, where we be now?
I think now's a good time to end it, don't you?
