Chicago Blues
Chicago Blues
Midnight blues session
Rumbles with soul force
With trumpet blown on a cool note
Deep in the southland of Chicago
Where cornbread and collards
Find a plate on the table
For parishioners from a delta of the mind
Where Mississippi sharecroppers gather
On city streets where the only cotton fields
Are snow drifts
Where harmonica harmony
Tells the story they left behind
