Blues Chase The Blues Away

The blues chase the blues away

The blues chase the blues away

Every time I hear an old Jimmy Reed song

I forget all about all the things that gone wrong

The blues chase the blues away

When you're out there in the field

Working all day long

When you're out there in the field

Sweatin' and diggin' all day long

Makes you feel a little better

Just to sing a good old blues song

The blues chase the blues away

The blues chase the blues away

Every time I hear a BB King song

I forget all about everything that's gone wrong

That's why I say the blues chase the blues away

When your woman's left you

You're feeling all alone

Yes, I said when your woman's left you

And you're feeling all alone

Just a little dose of The Delta

That lonesome feeling's gone

The blues chase the blues away

The blues chase the blues away

Saw a man down on the street

Playing for nickels and dimes

Saw a man down on the street

Singin' blues for nickels and dimes

He said, "When you sing 'em you lose 'em

So brother, I'm doing just fine"

The blues chase the blues away

I said the blues chase the blues away

Every time I hear a Little Walter song

It make me forget about everything that's gone wrong

The blues chase the blues away

Yeah, hey, I said the blues chase the blues away

I don't think I would have it any other way

The blues chase the blues away

Yeah, uh-huh
